01 / Overview
The operating context.
Singapore SMBs process hundreds of finance documents every month — invoices, purchase orders, GST returns, financial statements, and tax documents. Almost all of it manually, at enormous hidden cost.
We built an AI-native finance automation platform on AWS Bedrock and Claude that takes finance documents from ingestion to ERP export autonomously — with full compliance validation, role-based approvals, and a complete audit trail.
02 / Challenge
What stood in the way.
For Singapore SMBs navigating ACRA compliance and GST requirements, the stakes are high and the margin for error is zero:
- 01
Finance teams spend hours manually extracting and keying figures that should never require human input.
- 02
Validation errors slip through — incorrect UEN numbers, invalid GST registrations, and reconciliation mismatches create compliance risk.
- 03
Approval workflows live in email chains — no visibility, no audit trail, no accountability.
- 04
ERP data entry is done by hand — slow, error-prone, and impossible to scale.
- 05
Exception handling consumes disproportionate time — finance teams firefighting instead of adding value.
03 / Solution
What Algorims is building
An AI-Native Finance Automation Platform on AWS Bedrock and Claude that takes finance documents from ingestion to ERP export autonomously, engineered across seven integrated capabilities.
Intelligent document processing
Claude on AWS Bedrock extracts structured data from every finance document type — invoices, POs, GST returns, financial statements, and tax documents — with human-level accuracy and zero manual keying.
Singapore compliance validation
Built-in ACRA UEN and GST validation rules automatically verify every document against Singapore regulatory requirements — catching compliance errors before they become costly problems.
Retrieval-augmented generation
A Claude-powered RAG layer lets finance teams query their entire document history in plain English — instantly surfacing contract terms, payment histories, and vendor records without manual searching.
Automated approval workflows
Real-time exception and approval queues route documents intelligently by value threshold, document type, and business rules — giving finance managers complete visibility without email chains.
Automated reconciliation
AI-driven reconciliation matches invoices against purchase orders, delivery notes, and payment records automatically — identifying discrepancies instantly and flagging exceptions for human review.
ERP export
Validated, reconciled data exported directly to ERP systems — eliminating manual data entry and ensuring financial records are always accurate, current, and audit-ready.
Role-based access & full audit trail
Every action, approval, and exception logged with a complete, tamper-proof audit trail — giving finance teams, auditors, and compliance officers the visibility they need.
