What AI in invoice automation actually delivers – Newsec, one year in
An honest look at what's working, what isn't, and what to look for if you're evaluating AI for your finance function.
Overview
If you’re weighing up AI for your accounts payable function, you’ve probably seen the demos. They’re impressive, sure. What’s much harder to find is a straight answer to the question that actually matters: once it’s live, what does AI in invoice automation really deliver?
That’s the conversation we want to have.
Join Emma Blackmore (Chief Marketing Officer, Snowfox) and Tuomas Haapsaari (Chief Growth Officer, Snowfox) in conversation with Tore Hestnes (Project Manager, Accounting & Finance) and Odd-Arne Lundring (Communications Manager) from Newsec Property Asset Management, who have been running AI in their AP function for the past year.
In this webinar Newsec will share their honest experiences on how they have been utilising AI for purchase invoice coding and workflow routing automation.
Our guests will share their experience in their own words: why did Newsec decide to implement AI for Purchase-to-Pay automation, what surprised them along the way, and what they’d tell another finance leader evaluating AI today.
What this is: This is a candid, practical look at the state of AI in AP in 2026 and what it looks like once it is part of everyday operations.
What this isn’t:This isn’t a product walkthrough or a polished success story. We’ll talk honestly about where AI is actually delivering real value and ROI, where it’s not, and what separates automation that sticks from automation that gets shelved six months after launch.

- How Our AI Works
Self-learning AI that gets smarter with every invoice
Snowfox doesn’t rely on static rules or templates. Instead, it creates a continuous feedback loop where every approval, correction and exception makes the AI more accurate. The result? Predictions that improve automatically, without manual intervention.
