Before Plate IQ, we probably looked at each invoice five or six times. Now we use Plate IQ. Instead of walking invoices between different piles of paper, we just load everything in and the system’s rules send every invoice to the right approvers.

Before Plate IQ, my coworker and I would sit together for 30 minutes every week to pay invoices. Just me and her reading out vendors and amounts.
With Plate IQ Bill Pay, I can do a bulk of the payments, she can do others, and then we just meet for five minutes to do the rest. It’s been a lot easier.

We’re a fast-growing group. Our priorities are clean reporting and closing the books faster. Most corporate cards out there don’t work for us because of stringent cash balance requirements.

“We have seen the time spent on payables drop considerably in the last couple of months. Our time with each client just gets more efficient.”

"Our bookkeepers have never physically been to the restaurant for bookkeeping. If not for Plate IQ, our team would probably spend 12–15 hours per week on it."

“We have some invoices that are split between 20 locations. All we do is select the file, choose how to divide it up, and Plate IQ populates all that coding for us.”

“Plate IQ got us unified. Instead of my team having to toggle between two different things, they use one platform for all store-level and corporate invoices.”
In this quick explainer, restaurant owner and executive chef Scott Youkilis walks you through a play-by-play method of automating AP: from collecting invoices to managing complex approval workflows.
