AI-powered Receipt Analytics Achieves Over 90 Percent Accuracy in Detecting Fake, Altered and AI-generated Receipts

Oversight, the global leader in AI-powered spend monitoring and financial audit technology, announces early success of its latest ground-breaking Receipt Analytics solution built to stay ahead of increasingly sophisticated fraud attempts. The industry’s first-to-market AI-driven receipt analysis, including fake receipt detection capability, harnesses next-generation AI to transform expense receipt auditing, enabling finance teams to effortlessly inspect line-item purchase details, detect real risks, streamline reviews, and stay ahead in an evolving risk landscape.

Since its launch in early 2025, Oversight’s Receipt Analytics has been adopted by some of the world’s largest enterprises. Results show an accuracy rate of over 90% in detecting fraudulent and AI-generated receipts while also accurately identifying 30% to 60% more out-of-policy purchases than legacy solutions. The technology also reports 80% fewer false positives compared to Optical Character Recognition (OCR) and keyword-based systems used by other providers in the space. One customer shared, “Our older methods felt outdated and ineffective. Receipt Analytics changes the game; it reduces noise, sharpens risk detection, and frees up audit capacity where it matters most.”

“We have been leading the industry in AI and machine learning deployments for over 20 years, and Receipt Analytics is just one of the many advances emerging from our Oversight Innovations Lab — our dedicated hub for AI research and applied machine learning,” says Terrence McCrossan, CEO of Oversight. “We’re proud to be the first company to introduce this groundbreaking receipt analytics technology to market, months before our competitors even started talking about it. The market has moved beyond OCR-based detection approaches that can overwhelm audit teams with excessive noise and false positives. Our AI Receipt Analytics, combined with our large-scale machine learning models, goes further, understanding meta-data, context, itemization, and even translation to stop expense fraud that others miss.”

Harnessing AI to Redefine Receipt Auditing

Oversight Receipt Analytics is a cutting-edge LLM-based AI solution built for enterprise finance, compliance, and audit teams that seek to go beyond surface-level expense reviews. While most traditional systems rely on static keyword lists and manual review, Oversight utilizes advanced contextual analysis to intelligently detect real risks, including:

• AI-generated, altered or fake receipts
• Duplicate receipt submissions across users or time periods
• Unapproved items, brands and spend categories
• Purchases outside allowable spend policy
• Violations of foreign travel policies via automatic translation
• Receipts lacking itemization to obscure purchases

Oversight’s platform also supports multilingual receipts in over 80 languages, including Spanish, Chinese, French, and German.
