AvidXchange is the largest B2B payment networks in the US, serving customers with innovative automation solutions and software

AvidXchange provides business customers in the US with a host of digital software solutions that automate the complete accounts payable and payment process. 

Of, as the business states: “one mission, multiple solutions”. 

Automate: lose the paper

In the modern, digitally-driven enterprise environment, too many companies still rely on paper-based systems. This, according to AvidXchange, is a problem. 

For example, the company says, 70% of middle market companies still pay with paper paychecks. 

Further, it takes on average, eight days to process a single paper invoice and more than a third of accounts payable professionals’ days are spent on outdated, paper-based tasks. 

The AvidXchange solution

AvidXchange exists to change this. The company uses technology to ensure companies “lose the paper” in their procurement, pay, supplier management and invoicing processes. 

According to the company, automation = liberation. Its software solutions completely automate those processes listed above through one digital application that offers 24/7, on-demand access.

It does this for companies across multiple industries, including banking, real estate, healthcare and social services, construction and community association management.

Here, the company’s solution is based around a central online platform that is purpose-built for the sector. Benefits of use include: 

  • Greater visibility and speed when it comes to invoicing 
  • Secure payment to suppliers and improved vendor relationships
