Before you choose
- Define a successful result for this workflow: Test receipt vs invoice classification and total arithmetic.
- Try representative inputs you are authorized to use, including an exception. Review the result against the original source.
- Verify current access, supported outputs, privacy and retention terms, total usage cost, and your next-step requirements.
- Keep human review where errors would affect a customer, a record, or an important decision. Repeat the comparison if the workload changes.
