Light vs Tesorio
Tesorio is an order-to-cash automation platform that sits on top of your ERP: AI agents that draft collection emails and extract payment promises, cash application that matches lockbox PDFs and remittance emails to open invoices, a payment portal, submission of your invoices into customer procurement portals such as Coupa and Ariba, and AR cash forecasting, working on invoices billed in the system you keep, such as NetSuite, Sage Intacct, QuickBooks or Workday. Light is the agentic ERP where the invoice, the reminder, the cash match, the revenue schedule and the ledger entry live in one system, with AP, corporate cards, vendor payments on local rails in 80+ countries and consolidation built in.

The world's most demanding finance teams run on Light.
Keep the invoice with its payment
Tesorio collects and matches cash on invoices billed in your ERP. In Light, the invoice, the reminder, the payment and the ledger entry share the same system and audit trail.
- 01
Bill and recognise revenue in the same system
Light raises contract-based invoices and automates deferred revenue on the ledger. The collections workflow starts from an invoice the same system created.
- 02
Run both sides of finance
Light includes supplier bills, corporate cards and vendor payments alongside receivables, and consolidates every entity as transactions post.
When to choose Light
- 01
Billing and revenue in the books
Contract invoicing and deferred revenue post straight to the ledger, so there is nothing to reconcile between a billing tool and the books.
- 02
The ledger is included
Light is the system of record: spend, AP, AR and the general ledger in one platform, so there is no separate ERP to choose.
- 03
Close every entity at once
Consolidation and eliminations update as transactions post.
