EzzyBills is an invoice data scanning application which automatically extracts invoice data, including line items. Invoices can be uploaded to EzzyBills via email, direct file upload, and via the EzzyBills scanning app. This saves time and reduces errors compared to manual data entry, provides a built in digital paper trail, and allows for paperless automation of common processes such as reconciliation, invoice approval and expense claims.
