Ledgerlight.
Folio I · The entry

The receipt is written before the money moves.

Expense automation for SMBs that reimburses inside a day — not three weeks.

Ledgerlight handles receipts, employee expense reports and AP invoices for finance leads at 30-to-50-person companies with no dedicated AP team. It runs card-free: the receipt lands in the system before the swipe has cleared, then OCR, vendor match and policy check finish the job. The receipt is the source of truth — not the card network.

Folio II · The debits

Month-end is a receipt-hunt, not a close.

What the current process costs, entered honestly.

2.01

Reimbursements take three weeks

Cash flow stalls while employees wait on a cheque. A $600 client dinner can sit for a month while finance chases the paper.
Cost — employee goodwill, and their cash

2.02

Lost receipts, coded to the wrong account

By the time the receipt surfaces, the meal, vendor and project are fuzzy. Categorisation happens from memory, not from the slip.
Cost — a close you cannot defend

2.03

Employees lose 15–30 minutes a day

Re-keying the same transaction into a spreadsheet, an email and an accounting tool. The wheel spins after the spending has already happened.
Cost — 15–30 min · per person · per day

Folio III · The method

Capture before the spend. Reimburse before the weekend.

Three moves that close the gap between the swipe and the ledger entry.

3.01

Card-free BYOC capture

Works with personal cards, cash, Venmo and ACH. No application, no minimum bank balance, no card swap.
Answers — corporate-card lock-in

3.02

Pre-transaction capture

Snap the receipt in the app or forward it to ingestion before the meal is paid. OCR, vendor match and policy check run before the swipe — so the paper is never missing.
Answers — receipts lost in inboxes

3.03

Per-seat pricing that scales down

The workflow that powers a 50-person finance org, priced for a team of six.
Answers — enterprise tools for six-person teams
