Revolutionizing Factoring: Kapwork's Cutting-Edge AI Solutions
Revolutionizing Factoring: Kapwork's Cutting-Edge AI Solutions
New features streamline operations and reduce risk, accelerating capital deployments.
Kapwork, the AI platform for factoring, has introduced significant updates to its Kapwork Verify platform, aimed at transforming the factoring process through enhanced speed and efficiency. With new features like an Email Verification Agent and a centralized user interface, the platform enables factors to track their portfolios in real time, ensuring confident capital deployment at scale.
Traditionally, the factoring industry has relied heavily on manual processes for managing invoices, exposing it to high costs, inefficiencies, and vulnerabilities. Issues such as fraud, credit risks, and misdirected payments lead to substantial financial losses, impacting many businesses significantly. Kapwork addresses these concerns by infusing transparency and efficiency into the factoring operations, ultimately safeguarding capital and peace of mind.
Eliminating Friction and Accelerating Workflows with AI
Upon its launch, Kapwork automated the manual process of invoice verification by integrating with vendor management systems (VMS). The latest updates extend this automation to the email inbox, historically the most significant bottleneck in factoring workflows.
It is estimated that up to 90% of invoice processing time is lost due to manual reviews of countless email threads. The introduction of the Email Verification Agent by Kapwork automates the extraction and aggregation of transaction statuses from emails, providing a central and comprehensive view. Tasks that previously took a day or two of manual effort are now completed in seconds, with new, pending, and settled transactions readily accessible for real-time monitoring.
Moreover, Kapwork has developed a centralized user interface allowing quick access to all invoices. This interface reconciles information from various sources including emails, vendor portals, and internal systems. Users receive alerts for new invoice purchases and anomaly detections, significantly lowering fraud risks. Without Kapwork, factors would have to manually download vendor data and compare fields, opening up routes for costly errors and missed opportunities.
According to Mauricio Vergara, Co-Founder and CEO of Kapwork, "Factoring demands speed, precision, and trust, but manual processes create unnecessary barriers. A single fraudulent invoice can lead to massive losses, while persistent inefficiencies can slowly drain profits. Our goal with Kapwork is to empower factors to increase their margins and accelerate support for small and medium-sized businesses (SMBs)."
Self-Healing AI for Unmatched Reliability
Conventional automation tools like robotic process automation (RPA) often falter when systems change. However, Kapwork’s platform includes self-scripting AI agents that enhance both speed and reliability during invoice verification. These agents autonomously generate and store executable scripts as they perform tasks. In cases of errors or website changes, the AI agent self-corrects, addressing issues promptly and thereby minimizing downtime and maintenance needs. This capability ensures accurate real-time data even amidst increasing complexity and high transaction volumes.
The Future of Factoring Through Real-Time Automation
Customers utilizing Kapwork experience immediate benefits. Teams gain the ability to scale capital deployment without needing additional staff, allowing them to redirect time from manual tasks towards growth initiatives. This transformation greatly simplifies operations across diverse systems and in-house solutions.
Take TowerCap, for instance, a boutique factoring firm that has processed over $1.5 billion in invoices. They have reported a substantial reduction in workload, shifting invoice verification from a twice-weekly to a daily task. This shift has resulted in quicker capital deployment and positively impacted their profitability. Their senior executives can now allocate more time to strategic initiatives rather than routine verifications.
Oscar Rombola, President of the International Factoring Association Canada, emphasizes the importance of this shift, stating, "The landscape of factoring demands real-time automation and AI integration as essential components. Early adopters can now fund clients in mere hours while reducing costs and enhancing fraud prevention—without increasing their workforce. Delaying this transition may not lead to immediate consequences, but over time, firms will struggle to compete in price, speed, and risk management capabilities."
Kapwork is set to showcase its innovative platform at the upcoming International Factoring Association (IFA) Annual Conference. Attendees are encouraged to visit Booth #38 to learn more about Kapwork's offerings and explore the advancements in factoring automation.
