Three ways. Pick the one that fits your setup
API connector
LIVE SYNCWe connect straight to your accounting or ERP system and pull invoices on a schedule. Most connectors authorise over OAuth in a few clicks; AFAS and Lemonsoft use a service token you generate. Once it's live, new invoices flow in without anyone exporting anything.
File import
ANY FORMATExport from your system and drop the file — or hand us a format we already recognise. CSV, SIE, e-invoice XML, or PDF. No credentials, no IT ticket. A dozen Nordic systems import cleanly through certified formats; most other structured files we can read too.
Mailbox
AUTO-CAPTUREPoint us at the inbox where supplier invoices land — Microsoft 365 or Gmail. We read the attachments and parse them as they arrive, so email invoices get captured without a forwarding habit anyone has to keep up.
Connect it, import it, or forward it
Don't see your system? If it can produce a CSV, SIE file, e-invoice XML, or PDF, we can almost certainly import it — and new connectors land regularly. Email hello@sopisafe.com with what you're running and we'll confirm within 24 hours.

We read from these. We don't replace them
Not an ERP
We don't process transactions, post journal entries, manage inventory, run payroll, or do anything else your ERP does. We read what it produces. Your ERP stays exactly as it is.
Not an accounting system
We don't touch your books. We read your invoice data in read-only mode. Your accountant's workflow doesn't change. Nothing we do requires a change to your chart of accounts.
Not an AP tool
We don't approve invoices, route them for sign-off, or handle three-way matching for payment. AP approval happens before or after us. We check for contract compliance, not payment readiness.
Not a procurement platform
We don't manage sourcing, run RFPs, handle supplier onboarding, or manage purchase orders. We read the outputs of procurement (contracts and order forms) and check whether invoices match them.
