Vendor risk score
A vendor risk score is a single number that rates a vendor's likelihood of being fabricated, high-risk, or anomalous based on multiple signals analyzed together.
Manual vendor verification is the task nobody has time for — every vendor looks ordinary on its own. Invoice Auditor scores every vendor by running multiple fingerprints simultaneously: missing tax ID or contact info, round-number billing patterns, recent creation followed by immediate large payments, payee name changes, and name proximity to other vendors. Legitimate sole proprietors never get flagged for simply being small. You get one risk score per vendor and the specific signals behind it, so you can focus your verification effort on the two or three that actually deserve a phone call.
