As part of the deal, Goby’s technology will assist the restaurant chain to streamline, automate, and optimise utility bill workflows and processes.
The platform will automate processes through intelligent data acquisition, capture, extraction, and coding of invoice data from any format.
It offers improved visibility into utility bill management performance and insights into opportunities for improvements and savings, as well as validated, trustworthy data and automated identification of billing errors and usage outliers.
The platform also mitigates risk of late fees and opportunity for early pay discounts with streamlined approval workflows and notifications.
