How It Works

1

Ingest Vendor Invoices

Forward carrier invoices via email or connect your AP inbox. Wove reads any format—PDFs, Excel, scanned documents, or tables in email bodies.

2

Match Against Your Records

Wove compares invoice line items against your original quotes and shipment actuals. Flags discrepancies in freight charges, detention fees, fuel surcharges, and accessorials.

3

Route for Approval

Valid invoices flow to your accounting system. Variances get flagged for review with clear explanations of what doesn't match—so your AP team knows exactly what to question.

What Gets Automated

Variance Detection

Catch overcharges, duplicate invoices, and mystery fees before you pay. Wove compares every line item against your quote and flags discrepancies with the exact difference.

Three-Way Matching

Automatically reconcile purchase orders, quotes, and invoices. No more manual spreadsheet comparisons or chasing down booking confirmations to verify charges.

Accrual Management

Track pending invoices and update accruals in real-time. Know your true costs on every shipment, even before the final invoice arrives.

Built for Freight Accounting Complexity

Handles Messy Invoices

Wove reads invoices from hundreds of carriers, each with their own format. Ocean, air, trucking, rail—we've seen it all.

Learns Your Rates

The system gets smarter over time, learning your negotiated rates, typical accessorials, and which variances matter to your business.

Integrates With Your Stack

Works with QuickBooks, NetSuite, bill.com, or your existing accounting platform. Push approved invoices directly or flag exceptions for manual review.

3 variances detected
