What is Yokoy?
Yokoy compounds expense automation through zero-touch mobile, smarter tax calc, and rules-driven invoice handling.
Yokoy is in steady iteration mode on its core expense and invoice products. The recent run leans heavily into reducing manual touch on expense capture — mobile zero-touch flow, optimized receipt preview, automatic VAT calculation on mileage — and automating downstream paperwork via regex rules for supplier coding and CSV imports.
What is Zluri?
Zluri ships canvas workflows and a Segregation of Duties engine, moving from SaaS management into full IGA territory.
Zluri is in a concentrated feature-ship cycle, landing two significant enterprise compliance capabilities in one week: a visual canvas-based workflow builder (Workflows v2) that replaces a linear builder with node graphs, conditional branches, and dynamic variable support; and Segregation of Duties (SoD), a policy engine for detecting toxic access combinations with automated remediation via Playbooks. The August 30 cluster of three releases (source prioritization, instance management, activity-based status controls) built out the identity data layer these modules now operate against.
Yokoy vs Zluri: editorial side-by-side
Yokoy
0.0FINANCE
Yokoy compounds expense automation through zero-touch mobile, smarter tax calc, and rules-driven invoice handling.
◆ Current state
Yokoy is in steady iteration mode on its core expense and invoice products. The recent run leans heavily into reducing manual touch on expense capture — mobile zero-touch flow, optimized receipt preview, automatic VAT calculation on mileage — and automating downstream paperwork via regex rules for supplier coding and CSV imports.
◆ Where it's heading
The team is incrementally collapsing the manual steps in the expense lifecycle: snap a receipt, auto-extract, auto-tax, auto-export, auto-route. Invoice work is moving in parallel toward more rule-based assignment and access control. Nothing in this window suggests a category change — it's a methodical, automation-first roadmap focused on chipping away at submitter friction and finance-team config overhead.
◆ Prediction
Expect the next visible step to be closer integration between the mobile capture flow and the auto-export rules — likely a path where a submitted receipt reaches a finance system with no human review for low-risk policies. Continued small wins on per-country tax rules and invoice automation are likely.
Zluri
10.0FINANCE
Zluri ships canvas workflows and a Segregation of Duties engine, moving from SaaS management into full IGA territory.
◆ Current state
Zluri is in a concentrated feature-ship cycle, landing two significant enterprise compliance capabilities in one week: a visual canvas-based workflow builder (Workflows v2) that replaces a linear builder with node graphs, conditional branches, and dynamic variable support; and Segregation of Duties (SoD), a policy engine for detecting toxic access combinations with automated remediation via Playbooks. The August 30 cluster of three releases (source prioritization, instance management, activity-based status controls) built out the identity data layer these modules now operate against.
◆ Where it's heading
The August 30 foundation releases — source prioritization, first-class instance/account entities, activity-based status thresholds — form a coherent identity model upgrade that makes Zluri's data precise enough to power compliance automation. Workflows v2 and SODs are the enforcement layer built on top. The trajectory is clear: Zluri is systematically working up the ITAM/IGA stack from discovery → governance → compliance automation, compressing a roadmap that traditionally spans separate products.
◆ Prediction
Non-human identity (NHI) support, explicitly called out as the next step in the instance management release, is the next significant capability addition. Combined with SODs and account-level access reviews, Zluri is positioning directly against dedicated IGA tools in the SME/mid-market.
