AI Agents for Professional Services Time and Expense Capture
AI agents for professional services time and expense capture collect time entries, calendar activity and receipts, match them to engagements and rate cards, and flag missing or unusual entries before billing. Practice and finance teams stop chasing timesheets and receipts at month end.
Challenges We Solve
Where Time and Expense Capture Breaks Down
Professionals record time late and file expenses in batches, so billing teams chase gaps and correct entries at the end of each period.
Timeliness
Time is entered late or not at all
Professionals reconstruct hours from memory at the end of the week or month. Entries are vague and some billable time is never recorded.
Coding
Time is coded to the wrong engagement or task
Engagement codes, phases and task codes are chosen quickly. Corrections follow when the invoice is prepared.
Narratives
Time descriptions are not client-ready
Short or internal wording has to be rewritten before an invoice can go out.
Expenses
Receipts and expense reports lag
Receipts are collected in batches and policy checks happen after the spend. Out-of-policy items are found late.
Follow-up
Chasing timesheets consumes finance time
Finance and practice managers send reminders and wait. Cut-off dates slip.
Rates
Rates and write-offs are applied inconsistently
Rate cards, caps and fixed fees differ by engagement. Applying them by hand creates differences between staff.
