ECIT NORIAN AI
Pre-built agents, working end to end
Five specialized agents cover the accounting workflow, from document capture to processing, assistance, payroll, and audit. Each one plugs into how your finance team already works, without adding new tools to manage.
NORIAN Capture – AI Digitizing
NORIAN capture turns documents, forms and unstructured input into structured, validated accounting data – regardless of format, layout or language.
How it works
The agent uses four steps, with the same flow, every time:
- Import: Send any document through e-mail, API, e-invoice, or as paper to one of our scanning locations.
- Capture: Multiple machine learning models extract and classify data from the document.
- Validate: Our team validates the output from the capture process and corrects mistakes, eliminating the need for you to control data quality yourself.
- Export: The system exports data to any API, SFTP, e-mail or similar in the format required by the receiving system. Exports can be configured based on the content of the documents, and we support integration to multiple systems in one document flow.
Why intelligent document processing?
Eliminate manual data entry, create flexible workflows depending on document content, and use modern machine learning rather than templates.
- Eliminate manual data entry — Digitize documents and extract data without manual entry or templates.
- 99.8% accuracy guaranteed — AI and human expertise combined to process large volumes with 99.8% accuracy from the start.
- Faster delivery — Fast, high-quality document processing with AI and optional human validation — outperforming traditional OCR.
Where it fits
Supplier invoices, receipts, contracts, order confirmations, onboarding forms — anywhere a human currently retypes what a document already says.
What you get
Fewer manual touches per document, consistent data quality across entities and countries, and a confidence score on every field so you know what was certain and what was checked.
NORIAN Process – AI AP Handling
NORIAN Process predicts the account and every dimension for each individual line on an incoming invoice, and posts it in your ERP. Not a template per supplier — a prediction per line. That distinction matters when invoices carry lines that belong on different cost centres, departments or projects.
How it works
The system learns from your own posting history — what your accountants have actually done, not what a standard chart of accounts says they should. Every prediction is made by a rule, and every rule traces back to the evidence behind it. For a system touching client financials, that traceability is the point rather than a feature.
The system integrates per ERP and per capture system, not per customer. Once an integration exists, new customers on the same platform onboard onto the same pipeline.
How it is introduced
The system proposes; your accountants decide. Each suggestion arrives with the reasoning behind it, so a reviewer can see why a line was coded as it was and correct it where it is wrong. Touchless processing is the direction, not the starting point.
Where it fits
AP teams that already run rule-based automation and have hit the ceiling — where the remaining manual volume is exactly the volume rules cannot handle.
NORIAN Assist – AI Helpdesk
NORIAN Assist gives first-line support across languages — identifies intent, classifies, routes and answers.
How it works
Grounded exclusively in your approved documents: policies, procedures, agreements, product information. The agent answers with citations pointing to the source, and escalates to a named specialist the moment it is uncertain or the case falls outside its scope. It does not improvise.
Where it fits
Supplier and employee enquiries, internal service desks, customer first-line — high-volume, repetitive questions with answers that already exist in writing somewhere.
What you get
Answers in seconds instead of hours, 24/7 coverage, and every conversation logged with the sources it relied on.
NORIAN Payroll – AI Payroll
NORIAN payroll provides automated payroll validation, exception detection, regulatory compliance checks and intelligent reconciliation.
How it works
The agent reviews the payroll run before it is committed — comparing against prior periods, contracts and agreements, and country-specific rules — and surfaces what looks wrong and why. It supports the payroll specialist rather than replacing the decision.
Where it fits
Multi-country payroll where the same error classes recur every month, and where the control work is manual and time-boxed.
What you get
Errors caught before payment rather than after, a documented control trail per run, and control effort that scales with headcount instead of linearly with hours.
NORIAN Audit – AI Audit & Quality
NORIAN Audit gives intelligent quality control and audit support across the ledger.
How it works
Rather than sampling, the agent reviews full populations for anomalies, duplicates, policy deviations and unusual patterns, and documents each finding with its evidence.
Where it fits
Period-end close, internal quality review, audit preparation, and continuous controls testing.
What you get
Coverage that sampling cannot reach, findings ranked by materiality, and audit documentation that assembles itself as work happens.
Secure by design. Compliant by design.
Trust built into every layer
Every agent runs on EU/EEA-based Azure infrastructure, is classified under the EU AI Act, and must pass a compliance gate before go-live. The same controls that keep us compliant give you a safer, more dependable service.
- EU/EEA data residency
- GDPR-aligned
- Human-in-the-loop
- Full traceability

The transformation journey
From standardised automation to intelligent agents
Agentic AI moves operations from rule-based to context-aware — adaptive, self-improving and built into the core.
Map
Document existing processes, identify where time goes, and establish a baseline you can measure against. Nothing gets automated before it is understood.
Standardise
Harmonise across entities and countries. Reduce the number of variants people maintain by hand, so what gets automated later does not have to account for fifteen ways of doing the same thing.
Digitise
Get documents and data into the systems properly. ERP optimisation, structured capture, and clean master data — the foundation everything else depends on.
Automate
Rule-based automation, RPA, integrations and workflow. Handles the predictable volume — the transactions that follow a pattern every time.
Up to 65% faster
AI & Agents
Agentic AI on the volume rules cannot reach. Context-aware, learning from your own data, and traceable end to end.
Up to 90% autonomous
Risk routing from intake
Building on our AI initiatives, we combine intelligent models with automation platforms to move beyond rule-based RPA – towards smarter, adaptive, and scalable digital processes.

Behind the simplicity
How we Build
The interface is simple. What sits behind it is not. Around 40 people across three departments and six countries.
- Consulting & Advisory — Process discovery, business cases, and the decision on what should be automated before anything is.
- Automations & Operations — Build, integration and run: the agents in production, monitored and supported daily.
- AI Architecture — Platform, grounding, evaluation and governance — so an agent behaves the same on day 300 as on day one.
Every new engagement is assigned a Solution Architect who owns the technical design end to end — from process mapping through integration architecture to the agent configuration that goes live. The SA is the single point of accountability between the client and the build teams, and stays on through the pilot and into production.
Governance is not a stage gate someone else runs. The centre has its own governance function embedded in the AI Architecture team — responsible for risk classification, threat modelling, compliance documentation and the intake process described above. That keeps the review close to the build rather than separated from it, which is what makes proportionate effort possible in practice.
