Embrace AI to streamline your charging and billing processes

Challenges with billing errors can cause revenue loss and customer churn. Traditional rule-based error detection systems are limited, but generative AI has emerged as a game-changer.  

Gen-AI offers diverse models like Variational Autoencoders (VAEs) for anomaly detection.  

We leverage VAE to offer intelligent invoice anomaly detection that swiftly processes large amounts of invoice data and accurately detects billing errors such as amount variations, incorrect charges, and missing charges. 

This eBrief describes how we utilize VAE for faster, scalable, and more precise invoice anomaly detection.
