Document intelligence

What Relay reads, and what it leaves to you.

Relay's AI reads every invoice, lien waiver, and check copy, matches it to a property and budget line, and sends anything it isn't sure about to a person before it reaches a draw.

Document by document

What gets read, and what gets checked.

Four kinds of documents run a draw. Relay reads each of them the way your team does, then does the cross-checking your team usually doesn't have time for.

Invoices

Reads

Vendor, invoice number, date, total, every line item with quantity and price

Checks

Which property it belongs to. Which budget category each line goes to. Whether it matches an invoice already in the system.

Lien waivers

Reads

Vendor, amount, conditional or unconditional, signature present

Checks

That the waiver is readable and complete, not just that a file was uploaded. Which invoice it covers.

Check copies

Reads

Payee, amount, check number

Checks

Which invoice the payment covers, so proof of payment can be a required item on the next draw.

Your existing tracker

Reads

Budget categories and amounts, prior draws, historic invoices

Checks

That the history imports as historic, counts toward the budget, and can never be drawn again.

Move from doer to reviewer.

Uncertain lines wait for a person. They don't go into a draw. A property Relay can't identify, a line that could fit two categories, a scan it can't read: each one lands in review, and Relay tells you it's there. You make the final call with the original PDF alongside, and the correction is on record.

  • Relay alerts you when a line needs your attention
  • Every field and every line item editable, with the PDF in view
  • Nothing uncertain reaches a draw until you've made the call

Questions about the reading

No. It reads, matches, and flags. Every allocation can be changed, every draw is signed off by a person, and Relay never submits anything to a servicer by itself.
