Improved

  • Data refreshes itself instead of going stale

Fixed

Procurement

Fixed: every invoice upload was being rejected

Our AI provider retired the model we used for reading invoices. A catch-all turned that failure into a zero-confidence score, so uploads were not erroring, they were being politely rejected as unreadable. Every single one.

Improved

  • Provider failures surface as errors instead of silent rejections

Fixed

  • Invoice extraction working again after a provider model retirement
