Gartner says AI agents are reshaping supply chains. Harry Stebbings thinks enterprise will be the last to adopt them. They’re probably both right.
Finance is a good place to start, though. Invoice processing, three-way matching, approval routing, exception handling. It’s structured, rules-based work, which is where AI agents tend to pay off fastest.
The hard part isn’t the technology. It’s trust. So start small. Let AI capture documents with no manual data entry. Match POs to invoices and receipts without anyone checking line by line. Send only the exceptions to a person.
Nobody has to give up control on day one. That’s the thinking behind the Webexpenses FinOps platform: start with capture and matching, keep people on the exceptions, and expand from there.
