How Basware happened

The dark ages

Back in the mid-1980s, “paperwork” still involved paper – lots of it. Though the digital revolution was making it possible to digitise and automate internal processes, AP clerks still spent their days wading through stacks of envelopes, and CFOs wondered why processing invoices was almost as expensive as paying them.

Inventing an industry

That’s when a team of Finnish finance software experts decided to solve the paperwork problem for AP teams. They built the world’s first invoice processing software with a “scan & capture” workflow to digitise paper invoices – and, in doing so, invented the AP automation industry.

Setting the benchmark

Today we’re trailblazing and leading the industry in invoice automation. We’re bringing a whole new level of automation to our customers’ world. We are constantly inventing new ways to make everything just happen for our customers with advancements in AI and ML – meaning more time for strategy and less time spent on manual work.
