Looking for a Medius alternative? Zentriq automates AP in Business Central with AI, no implementation project or templates, on simple per-document pricing.
Medius is a capable accounts payable automation and spend management platform used by enterprises to process invoices at scale. It brings structured capture, approval workflows, and spend controls, usually through a configured implementation and per-user or volume licensing. That depth suits large finance teams, but it also means an enterprise rollout and an AP-centric scope. Zentriq covers the same invoice capture job with AI-first extraction, a five-minute self-serve setup, and a broader toolset built for Business Central.
Zentriq AI reads any invoice layout without pre-built templates or per-supplier setup. Upload a PDF from any supplier and AI extracts every field automatically.
Install the BC extension, sign in with Microsoft, and start processing invoices. No implementation project, no consultants, no partner needed.
Zentriq adds PunchOut cart capture and an AI assistant for Business Central, not just invoice and spend automation.
Pay per document or per message. No per-user licenses, no volume commitments, no project fees.
