FAQs

Sciro helps with expenses, invoice processing and card reconciliation. It reads documents, supports review and approval, and prepares records for your accounting software. We are building towards broader accounting automation, with people still in control of the decisions that need them.

No. Sciro works alongside your books. Connect a supported accounting system to bring in your chart of accounts and send approved records back with the original documents attached. The integrations page shows what Sciro works with today.

Upload a receipt or invoice as a PDF or image. Sciro extracts the supplier, date, amounts, VAT, invoice number and line items. You can review and correct the details before submitting.

Yes. Sciro uses account choices from similar expenses and invoice lines your organisation has approved and sent to its books to suggest categories from your active chart of accounts. More history helps tailor suggestions to your business. Your team can review and correct them before approval.

Your team reviews extracted details through your organisation’s approval chain. Approvers can edit, categorise or reject claims with notes. Team approvals are included in the trial and paid plans.

Supplier statement reconciliation, invoice queries and AI spending insights are enabled on paid plans. When the trial ends the workspace becomes read-only until you choose a plan.

The trial runs for 14 days with up to 10 people and 100 documents.

Yes. Sciro installs on a phone like an app. Photograph the receipt, add a category and a line, submit.

Record the spend with the no-receipt option. A receipt-required policy can flag it for the approver.

No. Policies are advisory. A breach is shown to the claimant and the approver. Nothing is stopped by a rule alone.

Mileage is included in the trial and on eligible paid plans. Add your journey and Sciro calculates the distance using your organisation’s configured rate. You can include multiple trips and return journeys in a claim.

Email import is included in the trial and on eligible paid plans. Connect a supported inbox to fetch document attachments, check for duplicates and stage files for review before confirming them.

Each line is read with its description, quantity, unit price and tax rate, and coded to its own account at submit. The approver can change any line.

On eligible plans, yes. Raise a query from the invoice. The person is told once by email and push, and the answer sits with the invoice.

Recognised and kept as a negative amount. Approved and sent like any record, offsetting the matching bill in your books.

A CSV export from the card provider. Choose the card it belongs to and Sciro reads the date, vendor and amount of each transaction.

By amount, date and vendor name, with the closeness of the match shown on each transaction. Change any match by hand.

Mark it as no receipt with a note. The approver sees the note beside the amount, and a receipt-required policy can flag it.

The cardholder and the finance team. Finance can view, edit and comment, and reconciliations they submit go to a shared queue.

One draft bill for the statement, with lines merged where they share an account and VAT rate, and every receipt attached.

A PDF, CSV, spreadsheet or photo of the statement, up to 4MB each, several at once. One statement per file.

Yes. Lines are checked against the supplier’s bills, credit notes and payments in your books. Nothing is written back.

The same amount on a nearby date, with one candidate. Confirm it or reject it, and a rejected one is never offered again.

Older items that no line names are taken as one brought-forward figure against it, so the difference stays honest.

The finance team, with access to your accounting software. Notes on a line and on the statement are kept for the next person.

When you mark it so. Sciro asks first that the lines add up to the balance and that every open line has a match or a note.

As many as you need, in order. Expenses, invoices and card statements can each have their own chain, or share one.

Yes. Pick approvers in the HR tree and each person’s claims climb to the nearest one, or to every pick above them, as you choose.

Approve, edit the details, change the account coding, or send it back with a note. The submitter sees the note and resubmits.

Your leave policy decides: skip them, hand the claim to a cover, or hold it. Leave comes from your HR system or is entered by hand.

Claims that have passed their reviewers land in one pool any finance member can take. Switch it on and off in settings.

Each approver sees one count of what is waiting for them, pooled claims included, the same everywhere in Sciro.

Admins, and anyone an admin gives analytics access. Finance, usually.

Receipts, invoices and mileage an admin has approved, placed on their document dates. Pending and rejected claims are not in it.

Seven days, thirty, ninety, six months, a year, or your own dates. Buckets adjust to the span.

Total spent, documents, average per document and VAT reclaimable, for the period you chose.

No. Sciro computes shares, changes and the biggest movers in code. The AI ranks and explains them, citing that evidence, and an insight citing anything else is dropped.

They refresh when the approved spend changes, and daily regardless, so a result never looks frozen.
