Both help reduce payment risk, but they address different problems.
Duplicate bill detection helps prevent paying the same bill twice. It compares a new bill with bills already in BILL, using details such as the vendor, invoice number, due date, amount, and document data.
Fraud protection helps identify suspicious activity. It looks for broader risk signals, such as unusual transactions, changes to vendor or payee information, and other anomalies.
The simple distinction: duplicate detection asks, “Have we already processed this bill?”, while fraud protection asks, “Does this activity look suspicious?”

AI in BILL helps code your invoices by reading your invoices and predicting key fields, including: account, amount, department, class, location, customer, and job.
By learning from your previous bill entries and comparing them with the invoice you just uploaded, AI in BILL helps you spend less time entering line items and more time reviewing exceptions. You review, edit, or undo the suggestions before finalizing the bill. BILL handles the rest.
For common invoice fields, BILL's extraction is approximately 99% accurate under tested conditions.* Results vary by invoice layout and data quality, and your team keeps final review and control.

AI in BILL helps reduce W-9 follow-up without giving up review and control. It can contact vendors to request W-9 forms, follow up with vendors, collect and organize forms, validate names and taxpayer identification numbers, flag mismatches, and update vendor information.
