Stureplansgruppen accelerates its accounting with Zimply – achieving 99.97% accuracy in invoice interpretation and coding

When Stureplansgruppen saw the need to significantly streamline the handling of supplier invoices, Accounting Manager Frida Lundin took the initiative to find a solution that could reduce manual workload and increase accounting quality. They chose Zimply – and the result was an automation journey that exceeded expectations.

Background - When manual work slows down the process

Two years ago, a large part of Stureplansgruppen’s coding (account allocation) work was carried out manually in their then-current system, Visma DCE. With an upcoming transition to Medius, the question arose:

“Should we wait to automate until after the system change?”

After an initial discussion, it quickly became clear that Zimply’s solution is system-agnostic – meaning the benefits of automation can be realized regardless of platform. This allowed Stureplansgruppen to begin streamlining immediately, without waiting for the migration.

The challenge - Time-consuming reconciliations and high stress levels

Before Zimply.ai, the process was characterized by:

• extensive manual checking and coding
  
• periodic workload peaks with tight deadlines
  
• limited ability to focus on complex cases and create added value for the business
  

The result was bottlenecks and unnecessary pressure on the team.

The solution - AI that turbo-optimizes existing processes

Zimply delivers specialized automation components that “chip-tune” customers’ existing systems and create fast, secure, and frictionless invoice processing.

For Stureplansgruppen, the solution centers on two key modules:

• Zimply’s invoice interpreter – secure and fast AI interpretation of supplier invoices
  
• Zimply’s advanced coding interpreter – generates coding proposals with up to 99.97% accuracy
  

Together, these modules create an automation chain that virtually eliminates manual intervention.

The outcome - Faster, safer, and almost fully automated

With Zimply’s AI assistant, Stureplansgruppen has created an almost fully automated coding process with accuracy levels of up to 99.97%. The automation covers tasks such as onboarding new suppliers, distributing invoices to approval flows, and coding. The results:

• faster processing
• higher quality and fewer errors
• more time for qualified, value-creating work
  

Frida Lundin, Accounting Manager, Stureplansgruppen

“The collaboration with Zimply works very well, and the solutions have made our daily work significantly easier. Automating the process of coding supplier invoices with accuracy up to 99.97% is impressive. It has improved quality, reduced manual workload, and freed up time for tasks that require more analysis and drive our development forward.” - Frida Lundin, Accounting Manager, Stureplansgruppen

“Our collaboration with Stureplansgruppen clearly shows the impact AI-driven automation can have on repetitive processes. By automating large parts of the coding work, we have together freed up valuable time.” - Malin Blomberg, CEO, Zimply

The automation of supplier invoices is only one part of Stureplansgruppen’s AI strategy. Together with Zimply, they have already implemented AI solutions to streamline several other key processes – and the work to optimize additional tasks is now accelerating rapidly.
