Every overpayment, found. Every dollar, returned.
Sticker is an AI-native recovery audit for corporate spend. We analyze your payment data, identify where suppliers have been overpaid, and return the difference.
Every large company overpays its suppliers. Not through carelessness, but because purchasing complexity outgrows financial controls.
Duplicate invoices slip past the systems built to catch them. Rebates are negotiated and never collected. A supplier raises prices mid-contract, and the next invoice is never reconciled against the agreement. Credits sit unclaimed on vendor statements for years. Each error is small on its own. Together, they amount to a recurring tax on the enterprise.
The traditional model is paid to find errors. It has no incentive to prevent them.
Recovery auditing has existed since the 1970s. The practice is so established that large retailers routinely engage two firms at once. A primary auditor sweeps first, and a secondary firm is paid a higher rate to audit behind it, because no single review catches everything.
The pricing model carries a built-in contradiction. The auditor keeps a percentage of every error found, which means every error prevented is revenue lost. Fifty years on, the industry finds the same errors at the same clients, year after year. Its work still depends on thousands of analysts reviewing data that is months old by the time it arrives. That work no longer requires people.

Recovery
We analyze the files your team already produces, applying three tiers of detection that range from duplicate-payment checks to deal terms read directly from contracts and correspondence. The result is a set of fully documented claims, recovered as supplier credits and refunds.
ContinuePrevention
Every claim traces back to a root cause, such as a control that failed or a contract term that never reached your ERP. The audit becomes a precise map of where your payment controls break down. From there, we verify every invoice before and after payment, continuously.
ContinueVerification
Every claim involves a supplier, and resolving claims cleanly builds trust on both sides of the transaction. Over time, Sticker becomes the shared record of what is actually owed between your company and the businesses you buy from.
ContinueThe third tier is where the largest recoveries live, and it is only now possible.
| Tier | What it reads | Detail | Status |
|---|---|---|---|
| The floor | Arithmetic | Duplicate payments, overpayments, and unapplied credits. These are the errors a ledger can prove on its own. | Mature everywhere |
| The middle | Reconciliation | Supplier statements matched against your ledger, and invoice pricing checked line by line against contracted rates. | Where credits hide |
| The ceiling | Unstructured terms | Rebate schedules in PDFs, allowances agreed over email, and price-protection clauses in master agreements. Language models read them all and enforce them against every invoice paid. | The largest errors |
“We are the only auditor whose business improves when the errors stop.”
Traditional firms earn more when the same errors recur. Sticker earns more when they stop. The recovery audit proves our value in returned dollars, and continuous monitoring keeps the errors from coming back.
