What is Rossum?
Rossum is a cloud-native enterprise document automation platform focused on transactional paperwork such as invoices, purchase orders, bills of lading, sales orders, and other business documents. It uses specialist AI agents and a proprietary transactional LLM to receive, understand, validate, enrich, and act on documents across multiple channels, including email, scanners, shared drives, EDI, PEPPOL, API, and manual upload.
The platform is built for end-to-end document processing rather than simple data extraction. It classifies and routes documents, extracts fields from structured and unstructured files, applies business rules and master data matching, checks for duplicates, and can trigger downstream actions like approvals, alerts, emails, and ERP posting.
Rossum emphasizes human-in-the-loop review for exceptions, with a validation screen for correcting low-confidence fields and ensuring data quality before export. It also provides document archive and search, workflow reporting, audit trails, and performance insights so teams can track automation rates, turnaround times, errors, and exceptions.
It is aimed at scale-ups, mid-market companies, and large enterprises that process high volumes of transactional documents and need customization, integrations, compliance, and security. Rossum highlights support for global operations, country-specific rules, 276 languages, handwriting, and integrations with systems such as SAP, Coupa, Workday, Oracle, NetSuite, and Microsoft Dynamics.
