“When applied to bounded, repeatable, value-creating decisions, AI turns AP into an engine of efficiency”
Bain 2025
84% of CFO’s have cost management at the top of their agenda for 2026, so it’s no surprise that they’re looking to AI for relief (Deloitte, 2025). The upside is clear, with 70% already reporting reduced costs alongside improved process quality after deploying AI in AP and accounting (KPMG, 2025).
But there’s a catch. Move too fast, and you risk locking yourself into AP and ERP systems that can’t keep pace with the technology they’re built upon. That rigidity stalls momentum, leaving 66% of companies trapped in AI pilots as decision paralysis sets in and innovation grinds to a halt (McKinsey, 2025).
So, how do you adopt AI in the finance function without committing to an architecture that you’ll rapidly outgrow?
