What it does

Certify is an expense management and corporate travel platform that automates the employee expense report process - from mobile receipt capture through approval workflows to ERP reimbursement. AI capabilities include AI-powered receipt OCR extracting merchant, date, and amount from photographed receipts, intelligent policy compliance checking flagging out-of-policy expenses before submission, duplicate expense detection catching submitted receipts from the same transaction, and travel booking with AI itinerary building suggesting optimal routes and fares.

Strengths

• Mid-market finance teams use Certify for systematic travel and expense management - AI-powered compliance enforcement and ERP integration automating reimbursement accounting.
• Large enterprises use Certify for enterprise expense governance - AI policy enforcement at scale and spending analytics surfacing cost reduction opportunities.
• Small businesses use Certify for professional expense management - AI receipt capture eliminating manual data entry and automated policy enforcement reducing finance team review time.

Watch-outs

• Less modern than newer spend platforms: Newer tools like Ramp and Brex offer more modern UX, real-time card controls, and integrated corporate card programs that Certify's traditional expense report model lacks.
• Corporate card integration is secondary: Companies wanting card-first spend management find purpose-built card platforms more natural.
• Travel booking depth varies by market: High-volume travel programs may need a dedicated travel management company alongside Certify.
