For years, the only answer to overpayments was the recovery audit. You overpay. A vendor finds it twelve to eighteen months later and hands back a slice of your own money after taking a cut.

SpendRule flips the model. We validate services invoices against the contract before the payment goes out. Nothing to chase, no clawback, no fee on money that never should have left.

Our customers see 100% ROI in weeks, not months.

If recovery is your safety net today, there is a better one.

One year ago, Chris Heckler and Joseph Akintolayo launched SpendRule with a clear mission: help healthcare organizations stop contract leakage before invoices are paid.

Since then, we have continued building a smarter way for health systems to enforce purchased-services contracts, validate invoices, and identify exceptions before they impact the bottom line.

Reads every contract.
Validates every invoice.
Flags every exception.

We are incredibly grateful to the customers who trust us, the partners who supported us, and the team whose commitment continues to move SpendRule forward.

This is only the beginning.

Here’s to one year of incredible growth, innovation, partnership, and measurable impact, and to everything ahead.

Most teams are great at moving invoices through. The question is what they're checked against. Match to the contract, not just the PO, and the leakage stops being invisible.

That's the entire shift: make "approved" the moment something gets verified, not the moment it gets paid.

Ask a CFO where margin is going and you'll hear labor, denials, and payer mix. Ask a CSCO and you'll hear supplies. Rarely do they say purchased services. That's exactly why it's the leak nobody has closed.

Purchased services is one of the largest cost categories in a hospital, north of $300 billion a year, yet it carries none of the controls that supplies do. A med-surg item gets a SKU, a PO, and three-way matching before payment. A purchased services invoice shows up as a PDF, coded to a cost center, and gets paid without anyone comparing it to the contracted rate.

The result is quiet and recurring: rate drift and catalog mismatch drive roughly 70% of overcharges, invoice after invoice, until someone finally audits the back end and claws back pennies on the dollar.

The reframe in our newest article: this isn't a procurement compliance problem, it's a payment integrity problem. And the fix isn't another dashboard. It's validating every invoice line against the contract before payment goes out.

A denied invoice gets a second look. An approved one gets paid. That's where the money quietly leaves, not in the claims you fight, but in the payments you wave through against a contract nobody re-checked.

Prepayment validation closes that gap before the dollars move. What would you find if every "approved" was verified first?

SpendRule is healthcare's first AI-native contract intelligence platform. It validates invoices against contracted rates in real time, before payment goes out, so health systems stop overpaying vendors instead of chasing refunds after the fact.

Purchased services are one of the largest categories of non-labor spend in healthcare, and an estimated $40 billion is lost every year to overpayments across the industry. Contracts are complex, manual review cannot keep pace with invoice volume, and most invoices get approved without true line-level enforcement. SpendRule fixes that.

Here's how it works:
1. SpendRule ingests your contracts, including master agreements, exhibits, amendments, rate cards, and even old scanned documents.
2. Pricing models, escalators, caps, minimums, and pass-throughs are translated into structured, enforceable rules.
3. Every invoice line is validated against those rules in real time, before payment.
4. True discrepancies are surfaced with evidence and routed to AP, supply chain, or the vendor for resolution.

SpendRule can run stand-alone without integration or it integrates with your existing ERP and AP systems with minimal IT lift, and most health systems are up and running within two to four weeks.

Healthcare doesn't need another round of cuts to patient care to fix its margins. It needs less waste in what it already spends. Every wrong dollar approved on a purchased services invoice is a dollar that should have funded care.

Stop the overpayment at the source and the savings show up without anyone losing a service.

Trust is a beautiful thing. It is also not a financial control.

Every healthy spend process needs a layer that verifies before money moves, not because anyone acted in bad faith, but because contracts are complex and rates drift. SpendRule is that layer.
