Velocity1.7

Procurement-to-pay tool is squeezing latency out of AP — bulk pay, in-line edit, pay-on-approval.

Current state
Procurify is shipping a steady stream of AP-team velocity improvements: Bulk Payment Preparation, an at-a-glance progress view on order requests, Advanced Bill Filtering, in-line bill editing in Beta, Pay-on-Approval for Bill Payments, and Bulk Approve Payments. Earlier in the window, Approval Pools, Direct Debit for Bill Pay, and an AI Intake for Orders early-access program all landed.
Where it's heading
The product is being optimized for high-volume AP and procurement teams, where the bottleneck is no longer feature breadth but the number of clicks per invoice processed. In-line editing, bulk approvals, pay-on-approval, and approval pools collectively compress the steps between bill entry and money out the door. The AI Intake for Orders early-access feature is the directional bet for where the cycle goes next — turning unstructured order requests into structured intake automatically.
Prediction
Expect AI Intake to expand out of early access and likely a parallel AI capability for bill ingestion (OCR-plus-LLM) given the in-line edit groundwork. Direct Debit support is likely to see broader regional/banking expansion. Approval pools will probably grow into more nuanced routing rules.
