AI for AR: It Only Works If You Trust the Data

Share with your network

The promise of AI is only as good as the data behind it.

Every finance leader has heard the pitch: AI will revolutionize your accounts receivable. It’ll automate decisions, predict payment behavior, and optimize collections. And it’s true. AI capabilities have advanced accounts receivable (AR) automation software, offering advantages that seemed impossible just a few years ago.

AI for accounts receivable: Flawed data leads to flawed decisions

An AI model trained on incomplete payment histories might prioritize the wrong accounts. One built on outdated customer information might damage your most valuable relationships. When you can’t trust your data, you can’t trust your AI.

For more than 20 years, Billtrust has been accumulating and learning from vast amounts of accounts receivable data across countless scenarios. We’ve processed payments through recessions, market disruptions and industry transformations. We’ve learned what works, what doesn’t, and what buyer signals actually matter when interpreting and predicting payment behavior.

What trusted AI data looks like

Billtrust’s data advantage goes even deeper. Our industry-leading AR data network spans more than 13 million buyers from 1 million companies. This rich ecosystem of real-world payment data ingestion enriches every insight and gives our clients an AI competitive edge that competitors and their platforms simply cannot match.

At Billtrust, we don’t just collect data. We carefully curate, clean, and secure it. Every data point is validated. Our AI models are trained on vast amounts of information that is scrubbed of personal information, making it anonymized. We’ve built our AI systems on a foundation of data integrity that enables smarter, fact-based decisions you can actually rely on. Learn more about Billtrust’s approach to AI.

This rigorous approach means our AI not only processes more information as a contextual prerequisite, but it also keeps up with your buyer behaviors tomorrow and beyond for adaptive forecasting and smarter next-step recommendations that have a deep history of proven success. That makes all the difference between AI that may make an initial impression during a demo and AI that delivers real, long-lasting results for your business.

With Billtrust, you can trust your data—and harness the power of AI for intelligent, effective actions that drive measurable outcomes.
