Riskent · A Cebrion AI venture
Riskent builds the AI finance middle office. Our flagship product, ContractUs, reads contracts, POs, invoices and plans together — the documents finance can't process at scale — and works out what to expense, accrue or defer, with the evidence, for a person to approve.

The gap
Purchase orders are born digital. But the invoices, contracts and credit notes that follow arrive in every format, language and currency — and no FP&A or procurement suite can read them at line level.
The result is a blind spot between commitment and actuals: leakage that compounds quietly, month-end cycles that stretch, and contract obligations that surface only at audit.
Off-the-shelf tools weren't built for this gap. Riskent was.
Product · ContractUs
Between purchase order and journal sits a spreadsheet: your ERP raises the PO and matches the invoice, but reads neither against the contract. ContractUs closes that manual middle — it reads contracts, POs, invoices and plans holistically, applies your accounting policy and data-quality checks, and works out what to expense, accrue or defer, with the evidence, for a person to approve. Automated. Evidenced. Approved.
Computer vision and natural language processing read scans, stamps and tables — any format, from PDF files to zipped folders. Invoices in English, Spanish and Mandarin; contracts in English.
Contract, PO, invoice, plan, entity and general ledger in one multi-dimensional model — contract to general ledger, with every number traceable back to the clause behind it.
Your policy and controls, applied the same way every month — deterministic rules with the working shown, data-quality checks on every document, maker-checker on every edit.
How any PO and invoice behave is built into the product: IFRS treatments, phasing, accruals, releases and revisions — configured per client, never rebuilt.
Agents that act, people who approve. The Agent Foundry — Planner, Extraction, Risk, Synthesis and Audit agents — is in active development: one agent per middle-office process, onboarded per client and driven by each customer's own policies.
Your ERP spreads cost on a straight line. ContractUs works it out from the contract.

Solutions
ContractUs is a product platform, configured — not customised — to deliver every use case below. The only customisation is data in and data out: the knowledge is built in, and the engines are reused across clients.
Third-party spend keeps growing, and the CFO has no lever to arrest it — because its lineage is split across Legal (MSAs), Finance (invoices) and the business units that commit it. This solution stitches that federation back together: every commitment, invoice and obligation in one governed view — accounted for under IFRS, controlled, and continuously analysed.

How it works
MSAs, SOWs, POs and invoices — manual or API feed. Multi-language, multi-format, at scale.
Computer vision extracts fields, NLP reads clauses, and a knowledge graph links every document to every other.
Human-in-the-loop: the AI flags exceptions and surfaces missing clauses for analyst sign-off.
Accruals, risk views, MSA calendars, spend forecasts and management reports — traceable to source.
The difference
| Capability | Legacy systems | ContractUs |
|---|---|---|
| Document intelligence | Basic OCR, manual processing | DocAI + GenAI reasoning — tables, stamps, multi-language |
| Security model | Public cloud; data leaves the firewall | Private, on-prem GenAI inference |
| Cross-charges | Manual, fragmented, unauditable | Automated traceback engine — auditable allocation |
| Accounting awareness | Not modelled; FP&A ≠ GL | IFRS/GAAP-native D&A built in |
| Risk re-evaluation | Static — applied once at upload | Dynamic — auto-rescans when policies change |
No off-the-shelf FP&A or procurement suite replicates this combination. ContractUs integrates via API alongside your existing ERP — no rip-and-replace, no disruption.
