Automation and machine learning have always been central to Emburse’s products and services. Customers generated vast amounts of expense and travel data, providing visibility and deep insights. However, core parts of the traveler expense reimbursement process remained woefully manual, requiring time-consuming data entry. By integrating generative AI and large language models (LLMs), we provided every traveler with the personal and administrative assistant capabilities typically reserved for executives. This innovation streamlined the expense reimbursement process, enhancing efficiency and user experience.

The Approach

  • Conduct in-depth user research to categorize travelers, personal assistants, and finance staff into three distinct groups, each with unique needs and satisfaction levels.

  • Identify opportunities to leverage AI for enhancing the user experience, particularly for administrators, by providing better insights and tools for policy updates.

  • Develop customized knowledge base solutions to address the unique corporate policies of each customer, avoiding a one-size-fits-all approach.

Integrating generative AI into the expense reimbursement process shows promising initial feedback, offering personal and contextual experiences that not only reduce manual work but improves user satisfaction. The vision aims to increase product stickiness, adoption, and has set a clear direction for the company’s next three-years.
