| Criterion | Audiree | Rossum |
|---|---|---|
| Focus | Checking construction delivery notes and invoices against the contract price book, per job | Horizontal AI document processing for transactional workflows (not construction-specific) |
| Document types | Delivery notes, invoices, contracts | Invoices, purchase orders, sales orders, bills of lading, tonnage certificates, customs documents |
| Line-level reading | Yes — every line: article, quantity, unit, price | Yes — extraction with human-in-the-loop; 276 languages and handwriting |
| Check against contract / agreed prices | Yes — core check: line price = contract price × quantity | Validation against master data, ERPs, third-party APIs and business rules you configure |
| Construction-specific checks | Units vs m², D16 vs D22, rebar tonnage tolerance, wrong-contract detection | We couldn’t find it on their site (checked 2026-09-29) |
| Review queue | Yes — divergences with the exact difference; matches approved automatically | Human-in-the-loop review for complex documents |
| Integrations listed | None — CSV export for Excel | SAP, Coupa, Oracle NetSuite, Workday, Microsoft Dynamics and others |
| Public pricing | On request, by volume of documents and jobs | We couldn’t find it on their site (checked 2026-09-29) — trial and demo |

When Rossum is the better choice
- You are an enterprise that wants one document AI layer across all spend — invoices, orders, logistics and customs documents — not just construction.
- You run Coupa, SAP, Oracle NetSuite, Workday or Dynamics and want extraction validated against their master data.
- Your documents come in many languages and countries; Rossum states 276 languages and handwriting.
- You have a team to configure business rules and workflows yourself.
When Audiree is the better choice
- You are a construction company with jobs in Portugal and want delivery note and invoice checks that work without configuring rules.
- Your reference is a supply contract per job; Audiree matches lines to contract items by meaning and prices them at the agreed rate.
- You want construction checks out of the box: unit consistency, bar designation (D16 vs D22), rebar tonnage tolerance, returnable pallets.
- Site teams capture delivery notes with a phone photo, and site and accounts review in the same place.
What does Rossum do?
Rossum describes itself (read 2026-09-29) as an AI-first intelligent document processing platform using a proprietary transactional large language model to read, extract, validate and process documents end to end. It states support for 276 languages and handwriting, cross-validation against master data, ERPs, third-party APIs and business rules, computation of GL, tax and HS codes, and human-in-the-loop workflows. Named integrations include SAP, Coupa, Oracle NetSuite, Workday and Microsoft Dynamics.
On 12 May 2026, Coupa announced it had acquired Rossum to accelerate end-to-end autonomous spend management.
What does Audiree do differently?
The site team photographs the delivery note (or uploads a PDF or forwards an email). AI reads every line — article, quantity, unit, price — in two independent readings, matches each line to the contract price book of that job by meaning rather than identical text, and runs ten deterministic checks: line price = contract price × quantity, document total vs sum of lines, supplier NIF, contract reference, unit consistency (units vs m²), designation identity (D16 vs D22), rebar tonnage tolerance and more. What matches is approved automatically; divergences go to a review queue with the exact difference, and nothing is discarded silently.
Audiree doesn’t replace an ERP or accounting system, doesn’t create purchase orders, doesn’t pay suppliers and doesn’t issue invoices. It sits between the job site and accounts and does one job: checking what was delivered and invoiced against what was agreed.
Built in Portugal
Audiree is built in Portugal and works today with Portuguese construction companies. Reading is layout-agnostic, so suppliers’ documents from other markets can be read as they are, and we run demos with your own delivery notes and contracts — but we don’t claim local compliance outside Portugal.
A general document engine or a construction workflow?
A horizontal IDP platform is the right tool when you have many document types and the resources to model your own rules: which master data to check, what tolerance to accept, who reviews. The construction rules — which contract applies to this job, whether “Varão A500 D16” is the same item as “Aço D16”, whether 1.2 t on the invoice matches the bars counted on site — have to be built on top.
Audiree ships with those rules because it does only this. The trade-off is scope: it doesn’t process customs documents, sales orders or non-construction spend. See delivery note OCR for why reading is only the first step, and rebar invoices for a construction-specific example.
Which one should you choose?
For a large group standardising document AI across procurement, especially one already on Coupa or SAP, Rossum is designed for that scale. For a construction company whose bottleneck is checking delivery notes and invoices against supply contracts on Portuguese jobs, Audiree is ready to use without a configuration project.
Frequently asked questions
Was Rossum acquired?
Yes. Coupa announced the acquisition of Rossum on 12 May 2026, according to Coupa’s newsroom.
Is Rossum built for construction?
Rossum presents itself as a horizontal document processing platform; we couldn’t find construction-specific checks on their site (checked 2026-09-29).
Does Audiree read documents in other languages?
Reading is layout-agnostic, so suppliers’ documents can be read as they are. Audiree works today with Portuguese construction companies and Portuguese documents; ask for a demo with your own documents from other markets.
Can the AI approve a wrong document?
Audiree uses AI to read, not to decide: two independent readings and ten deterministic checks decide what is approved, and disagreements go to human review.
