Ways to start · Procure to Close

Start where it hurts. Finish connected.

Every Vakari pillar stands on its own. Pair two and they start checking each other. Run all four and the record checks itself, from the first request to the ledger. Tell us where you'd start, and we'll show you on your own process.

Start with one

One pillar, on top of your ERP.

Procurement

Anyone asks in plain English; the request becomes a PO in your ERP, routed by your policy and approval limits.

Who notices first: Head of Procurement, CFO

Start with Procurement →

Contracts + e-Sign

Every signed term becomes data the rest of finance can use. e-Sign included, never metered.

Who notices first: General Counsel, Legal Ops

Start with Contracts + e-Sign →

Accounts payable

Invoices matched to the PO, the receipt and the contract, and errors corrected before payment.

Who notices first: AP lead, Controller

Start with Accounts payable →

Close Tasks Free

Your close calendar, tasks, owners and sign-off, at no cost. Connect your ERP when you're ready, and pay only for the entries Vakari prepares.

Pair two

Two pillars, one record. Everything between them lights up.

Pair any two and they start checking each other, because it's the same record at a different stage.

Procurement + Contracts

Renewals priced and decided before the auto-renew deadline, and every new request knows what you have already signed.

Procurement + AP

The request, PO, receipt and invoice are one record from the start, so the match is ready before the invoice lands and off-policy spend is caught on arrival.

Who notices first: AP lead, Head of Procurement

Talk to us about this pairing →

Procurement + Close

Accruals from open POs and receipts: work that has been delivered but not billed is on the books at period end.

Who notices first: Controller

Talk to us about this pairing →

AP + Contracts

Contract-aware matching: every invoice is checked against the price, terms and tiers in the signed contract, not just the PO, before it is staged for payment.

Who notices first: AP lead, Controller, Legal Ops

Talk to us about this pairing →

AP + Close

Received-not-billed accruals, and invoice errors stopped before they become reconciling items.

Who notices first: Controller, AP lead

Talk to us about this pairing →

Contracts + Close

Accruals and schedules from contract terms: price increases, volume tiers, prepaids and leases, each traced to its clause.

How each pairing works

The status quo, the wake-up call, and what changes.

Procurement + Contracts

Who notices first: Head of Procurement, Legal Ops

Renewals priced and decided before the auto-renew deadline, and every new request knows what you have already signed.

The status quoNotice dates live in PDFs and calendar reminders.
The wake-up callA contract renews for 24 months at 7% more, because no one saw the date.
With VakariSixty days out, Vakari opens the renewal request for the owner, with usage and price.

Procurement + AP

Who notices first: AP lead, Head of Procurement

The request, PO, receipt and invoice are one record from the start, so the match is ready before the invoice lands and off-policy spend is caught on arrival.

The status quoInvoices arrive for purchases no one can find a PO for.
The wake-up callAP chases approvers by email while the vendor chases AP.
With VakariThe invoice matches the request it came from, or it is flagged as off-policy spend the day it arrives.

Procurement + Close

Who notices first: Controller

Accruals from open POs and receipts: work that has been delivered but not billed is on the books at period end.

The status quoAccruals are rebuilt in a spreadsheet every month.
The wake-up callSeptember shows no expense for $120,000 of consulting that was delivered.
With VakariThe agent proposes the accrual from the open PO. The Controller approves it on day one.

AP + Contracts

Who notices first: AP lead, Controller, Legal Ops

Contract-aware matching: every invoice is checked against the price, terms and tiers in the signed contract, not just the PO, before it is staged for payment.

The status quoAP matches the invoice to the PO. The contract sits in a folder.
The wake-up callA vendor bills $45.90 a unit against a $38 cap. It is paid, and found three months later.
With VakariThe clause checked the invoice when it arrived. $3,400 held before payment.

AP + Close

Who notices first: Controller, AP lead

Received-not-billed accruals, and invoice errors stopped before they become reconciling items.

The status quoAP is tied out to the general ledger by hand at month-end.
The wake-up callAn invoice coded to the wrong period sits as a reconciling item for two months.
With VakariCoding and period are checked before anything posts, so AP and the ledger agree.

Contracts + Close

Who notices first: Controller, technical accounting

Accruals and schedules from contract terms: price increases, volume tiers, prepaids and leases, each traced to its clause.

The status quoPrepaid and escalation schedules live in spreadsheets.
The wake-up callA 7% price increase is never accrued. It surfaces later as an unexplained variance.
With VakariThe schedule was drafted from the clause the day the contract was signed.

Run all four, end to end

Start with a pairing. Or light up all of them at once.

Every pairing from day one

All six pairings light up together, plus the chains only one record can run: a renewal date that opens a request, a PO that drafts the accrual, an entry that comes to you for approval.

One plan, delivered in phases

One implementation plan, live in phases, with a small amount of time each week from your team.

One price, on consumption

You pay for outcomes across all four, such as requests orchestrated, invoices processed and entries posted. Never for seats.

Insight and action in real time

One audit trail, one set of controls, and fewer tools to license and reconcile. The month-end close becomes a confirmation.

Ways to start FAQ

Questions about where to start

Can we start with just one pillar?

Yes. Procurement, Contracts + e-Sign and AP each work on their own, on top of your ERP. Close Tasks is free for everyone, so many teams run their close calendar in Vakari from the start.

Which pairing should we start with?

Start where it hurts most. If invoices are paid above contract, start with AP + Contracts. If accruals are rebuilt in spreadsheets, start with Procurement + Close or AP + Close. If renewals catch you by surprise, start with Procurement + Contracts. Talk to us and we will map it to your process.

Can we buy the whole platform at once?

Yes. Running all four pillars gives you every pairing from day one, one implementation plan delivered in phases, one consumption price and one audit trail.

How is Vakari priced?

On consumption: you pay for the work Vakari completes, such as requests orchestrated, invoices processed and journal entries posted. Never per seat. Close Tasks is free.

Do we have to replace our ERP?

No. Vakari reads from and posts to the ERP you already run, and we build new integrations with our customers. Your ERP records it. Vakari runs it.
