Short answer

How can I use AI to audit my sales and deposits?

Your AI pulls order data from your commerce platform and matches it against actual bank transactions to find discrepancies. You'll get a clear view of where payments are missing or amounts don't align.

Where every issue lands.

Audit outcomes

The AI organizes its findings into these specific categories.

MATCHED

MISMATCH

Amount discrepancies

The AI finds cases where the order total and the deposit amount differ. You'll see exactly how much is off.

MISSING

Unaccounted orders

The AI identifies orders that have no corresponding bank deposit. This highlights potential lost revenue.
