Frequently asked questions
How does Rossum price its platform?
Rossum quotes custom annual contracts based on page or document volume and workflow complexity. The published Starter plan starts at $18,000 per year with unlimited seats; Business, Enterprise and Ultimate are quote-only, and the minimum contract length is one year. Integrations, AP apps, e-invoicing and service plans are sold as add-ons.
How quickly can we reach production value?
Rossum positions itself on fast time to value: a 14-day free trial, pre-built integrations and configuration your own team can maintain. Published references report 85% automation for critical suppliers within 9 days (Octopus Energy) and four shared service centres onboarded in three months (Fugro).
Which ERPs and systems does Rossum integrate with?
Rossum offers API and SFTP access plus certified integrations with SAP and Coupa and connectors for Oracle, Workday, NetSuite and QuickBooks. Customers can integrate themselves using the Knowledge Hub, buy help from Rossum solution architects, or work with a partner integrator.
Is our document data safe and compliant?
The vendor states on its pricing FAQ that it meets ISO 27001, SOC 2, HIPAA and TX-RAMP standards, and that its models are built in-house so document data is not sent to third-party models. Request current audit reports and the security documentation during procurement.
Do we have to bring our own AI model?
No. Rossum ships its own proprietary transactional LLM, Aurora, trained on millions of annotated documents and supporting 276 languages plus handwriting. The sources describe an in-house, system-provided model rather than a bring-your-own-key option.
What document types and input channels does Rossum handle?
Transactional documents: supplier invoices, sales orders, certificates of analysis, packing lists and delivery notes. Capture can come from email, scanners, PEPPOL, shared drives, API or manual upload, and extracted data can be validated against master data before it is posted downstream.
