Zone & Co expands Zoe's portfolio of AI Agents with AP operations across procure-to-pay. New agent runs the accounts payable investigations that finance teams previously performed manually; grounded in live ERP data so teams can act with confidence. NEW YORK, JULY 30, 2026 - Zone & Co, a leading ERP-native, AI-powered financial operations platform, today announced the upcoming availability of AP Intelligence Agent, the latest addition to Zoe by Zone, the company's AI orchestration layer. Building on the launch of Subscription Intelligence Agent and the introduction of Zone Control Center earlier this year, the AP Intelligence Agent takes on the manual investigation work behind accounts payable: tracing bills, reconciling suppliers, and surfacing exposure risks across a company's live ERP data. As finance teams automate more of their day-to-day operations, the challenge is no longer processing accounts payable. It is directing it. Finance leaders need to know where approvals are stalling, where duplicate bills or vendors have slipped through, and where purchasing policy has been bypassed. Answering those questions has meant hours of manual work across dashboards, saved searches, reports, and spreadsheets before anyone could act. The result is slower decisions, reduced control and valuable time spent piecing together information instead of guiding the business forward. Built on trusted data from ZoneCapture and ZoneApprovals and operating strictly within existing ERP permissions, the AP agent works across a company's live financial data to detect duplicate bill and vendor exposure, identify where approvals are stalling, trace the full lifecycle of a bill from purchase request through payment. It returns findings a team can trust and act on, with the underlying data trail attached maintaining strong financial controls. "Automation transformed how finance teams execute work. AI is transforming how they direct it," said Thomas Kim, CEO of Zone. "Finance leaders should not have to chase information before they can make decisions. AP Intelligence Agent gives them immediate visibility into the issues that matter most, helping them resolve bottlenecks, strengthen controls and guide accounts payable with greater confidence while keeping people firmly in control." The launch marks another milestone in Zone's vision to transform the ERP from a system of record into a system of agency through an expanding portfolio of specialized AI agents built for finance. Following the expansion into procurement with ZoneProcure and the introduction of Subscription Intelligence Agent, the AP Intelligence Agent extends Zoe's capabilities across the procure-to-pay lifecycle, doing the analytical work that once fell to finance teams, directly on the data of record they already trust, from purchase request through payment. The AP Intelligence Agent will begin rolling out globally in August for customers using ZoneCapture and/or ZoneApprovals with Zone Control Center. Future enhancements will introduce customer-defined AI customization, scheduled AI tasks and additional AI Agents, continuing to expand Zoe as the agentic orchestration layer that transforms the ERP from a system of record into a system of agency.

Zone & Co extends e-invoicing capabilities to Meet accelerating EMEA mandates, starting with France. ZoneCapture supports structured e-invoicing and mandated networks, giving finance teams a clear path to compliance without added complexity NEW YORK, June 4, 2026 - Zone & Co, the leading ERP-native, AI-powered financial operations platform, today announced expanded e-invoicing capabilities designed to support procure-to-pay and quote-to-cash workflows, as finance teams navigate the growing pressure of rapidly escalating mandates across Europe, the Middle East, and Africa (EMEA). Governments across the broader EMEA region are rolling out unique country-specific mandates, structured formats, and real-time validation models that determine whether invoices are legally recognized, with severe penalties for non-compliance. For finance teams, the challenge is no longer just becoming compliant, but maintaining compliance as regulations continue to evolve across countries. Most solutions address this by introducing external infrastructure, requiring additional systems and integrations that increase operational risk and complexity for finance teams. ZoneCapture, Zone's ERP invoice capture solution, embeds e-invoicing directly inside the ERP, allowing finance teams to send and receive structured e-invoices, manage reporting, all while connecting to mandated networks such as PEPPOL, and maintaining full control of invoice workflows without disrupting existing processes. "The era of treating e-invoicing as a simple, standalone compliance project is over," said Thomas Kim, CEO of Zone. "With mandates exploding across EMEA and models like France introducing real-time validation, the consequence of failure is now operational - it breaks your business, not just your budget. This is forcing a system-level decision. Finance teams can't afford bolt-on solutions; they need an adaptive path to compliance that is built inside their ERP, where their entire financial operations live." Through an exciting new partnership with an e-invoicing provider listed by the French tax authority as a Plateforme de Dématérialisation Partenaire (PDP), Zone provides compliance infrastructure that manages required formats, network connectivity, and ongoing regulatory updates across EMEA. This approach allows finance teams to meet mandate requirements while maintaining control of their processes and reducing the burden of regulatory change. Zone's e-invoicing capabilities enable teams to: * Meet country-specific mandate requirements across EMEA * Reduce risk as real-time validation becomes standard * Keep invoice processing and approvals inside the ERP * Adapt to evolving regulatory requirements without ongoing manual effort Zone will support France as part of its phased expansion across EMEA, with its capabilities continuing to evolve in line with regulatory requirements.
