Overview

Medius is a cloud accounts payable and spend management platform aimed at mid-market and enterprise finance teams. It automates the full invoice lifecycle, from AI-based capture and touchless processing through approval, PO and receipt matching, and payment, and emphasizes ERP-agnostic deployment with out-of-the-box connectivity to a wide range of systems. Medius highlights fraud and risk detection as a core capability, applying analytics to flag suspicious invoices and payments.

The platform spans modules including invoice automation, AI-assisted approvals, payments, e-invoicing and compliance, supplier conversations, statement reconciliation, procurement, and analytics. It is positioned for organizations processing high invoice volumes across multiple entities and ERPs that want a single AP layer rather than ERP-native AP.

Medius is headquartered in Stockholm, Sweden, with offices across Europe, North America, and Australia. It has been backed by private equity, and reports thousands of customers and hundreds of thousands of users processing very large annual transaction volumes.
