The AP Platform

AP without the backlog.

Listra resolves invoice discrepancies end-to-end, so your team oversees outcomes instead of working a queue.

The problem we solve

Every AP platform stops where the work actually begins.

The industry has spent twenty years optimizing invoice ingestion, data extraction, and routing. The hard part of AP, the discrepancies that need investigation, the vendors who need follow-up, the mismatches that need a decision, still lands on your team.

That is the work that drives cycle time up, eats early-payment discounts, and shows up at month-end as a backlog the close cannot move past. Other AP platforms call that work an exception and route it to a human queue. We resolve it.

Every other AP platform
Detects a discrepancy and routes it to your team.
Pulls one or two systems for matching.
Generates an exception ticket.
Waits for someone to email the vendor.
Posts only what your team approves manually.
Listra
Detects a discrepancy and resolves it.
Pulls POs, GRs, contracts, vendor history, and policy in one investigation.
Generates an evidence pack and a recommended resolution.
Drafts and sends the vendor message in your team's voice.
Posts cleanly to your ERP with a complete audit trail.
The Operating Model

From invoice in to clean post.

Every invoice runs through the same five steps. No queue between them, no ticket to chase, no decision lost in email.

01

Ingest

Email, upload, API, or EDI. Listra captures the artifact and the context that came with it.

02

Investigate

Pulls the PO, receipt, contract, vendor history, and policy in one pass.

03

Decide

Identifies the root cause and recommends the resolution your policy authorizes.

04

Act

Drafts the vendor message, routes approvals, or resolves in Autopilot.

05

Post

Writes back to your ERP with the evidence pack and audit trail attached.

How Listra works

One platform. Two operating modes. Your policy.

Listra runs in two modes, and customers move from one to the other on their own timeline. There is no rip-and-replace. There is no big-bang cutover. Your team starts in oversight and earns the right to step further back as the audit trail proves out.

Mode 01

Copilot

Listra investigates every discrepancy, gathers the evidence, and recommends a resolution with the rationale attached. Your team reviews and approves. Every decision is documented. Most customers start here.

  • Cross-system investigation runs automatically
  • Evidence pack assembled for every decision
  • Vendor messages drafted in your team's voice
  • Your team approves or edits before action
Mode 02

Autopilot

When Listra has earned the trust on a given exception type, it resolves autonomously, within the policy you set. No approval needed. The evidence pack and audit trail are still there. Your team reviews outcomes, not actions.

  • Policy-governed resolution without human approval
  • Exception types graduate from Copilot individually
  • Full audit trail on every autonomous action
  • Revert to Copilot for any type, any time
Security

Security and trust, by design.

Encryption, access controls, audit trails, and tenant isolation are part of the platform's foundation, not features added later. Here is what that looks like in practice.

SOC 2 readiness underway

We are preparing for formal audit. Security questionnaire and DPA available on request to qualified prospects.

Encryption

AES-256 at rest. TLS 1.2+ in transit. Network segmentation and continuous monitoring on AWS infrastructure.

Access and identity

SSO via your identity provider. MFA for high-value approvals. Role-based access control with thirty permission categories at the action level.

Tenant isolation

Multi-tenant architecture with company-level data isolation enforced at the API, database, and query layers.

Audit trail

Every decision Listra makes is documented with the evidence it consulted, the policy rule it applied, and the timestamp. SOX-ready by default.

Data locality

Customer data is stored in US AWS regions by default. EU data residency available on request and on roadmap for self-serve selection.
