Our take

AppZen is setting out to help companies cut down on the expensive and time-consuming process of auditing expense reports with its suite of smart AI tools. As its AI solution is also more accurate than manual finance processes, it greatly reduces human error which can lead to duplicate spend or overlooking instances of fraud.

Boasting an 80% reduction in processing times and a 5% reduction in total spend, AppZen has swiftly established itself as a leader in AI finance software. It is used by over a thousand finance teams in enterprises such as Amazon, Nvidia, and Salesforce.

AppZen faces a large number of competitors in the finance automation space, with startups such as Expensify and Spendesk operating in the sector along with industry stalwarts such as SAP developing their own solutions. However, Appzen has carved out a strong early lead and has a large and rapidly growing client base. As it continues to develop its product it seems likely to maintain its market-leading position.
