How it Works

Cash Discount Likelihood (CDL) Scoring

Our proprietary machine-learning model, developed with input from treasury and finance experts, utilizes predictive analytics to determine the likelihood of a supplier accepting a discount.

Step 1

Onboard Suppliers

As part of apexanalytix's supplier onboarding, we collect data (address, tax id, SIC code, etc.) and validate it against 1,000+ trusted sources to ensure the vendor data is complete, robust and accurate.

When spend data is integrated into our platform and suppliers are using our supplier-facing inquiry portal for invoice and payment visbility, behavioral data is gathered.
