Glean's a complete solution vs. Bill.com

Bill.com was founded in 2006 when it was recognized that business owners needed a way to simplify invoice data entry and payments.
 
2006 was also the year that Facebook was newly opened to non-university users, and no one knew what an iPhone was because it hadn’t been invented yet. 

Technology-wise, 2006 feels like a million years ago. 

Bill.com Automates. But You Need More Than Automation

Bill.com does exactly what it set out to do: it automates the invoice data entry process, routes invoices for approvals, alerts you when something is paid or unpaid, etc. Back in 2006, this was a really big deal and certainly saved people some time. 

But technology has come a long way, and advancements in AI have paved the way to a level of financial analytics and proactive spend management that would have made a CFO-circa-2006’s head explode.
