We recently had the pleasure of joining our partner, be one solutions, at the IMDA Tech Showcase in Singapore. The event brought together tech leaders and government agencies to explore how automation and AI can support compliance and digital transformation across sectors.
beo ne solutions and Staple AI were invited to speak on how global ERP rollouts and AI-based document automation can work hand in hand. For us, it was a great moment to share the real-world impact of our partnership.

be one solutions shared how their clients use SAP Business One to standardize financial operations and reporting across countries. These rollouts often face one common challenge: documents don’t look the same everywhere.
That’s where Staple AI comes in.
We presented how our platform helps enterprises handle localized invoices, purchase orders, contracts, and other business documents across different languages, formats, and compliance standards. Our AI processes documents with:
Traditional document automation systems often rely on rigid templates, predefined zones, or fixed business rules to extract information. This works well for clean, predictable documents but breaks down immediately when faced with real-world variability — especially in multinational environments. At Staple AI, our approach is fundamentally different. We use deep learning models that learn from document layout patterns and linguistic cues, not from static templates. This allows us to extract data from a wide range of formats — including scanned PDFs, photos, handwritten notes, and multi-language invoices — without needing to configure a new rule set every time. This no-template, no-rule setup makes it faster to onboard new document types, minimizes change management, and ensures automation doesn't collapse under edge cases.
Language is one of the biggest bottlenecks in enterprise automation. Most OCR engines struggle outside of English or a handful of supported languages, and even fewer can accurately process mixed-language documents or regional dialects. Staple AI is designed from the ground up to be multilingual. We support document processing in over 300 languages and dialects, including low-resource languages like Khmer, Lao, and Sinhala. This includes extraction and translation — our models can process documents written in local scripts and return accurate structured data in the user’s preferred language. For global enterprises operating across APAC, EMEA, and Latin America, this eliminates the need for manual translation layers or country-specific tools.
Accuracy isn’t just about extracting the right numbers. It’s about knowing whether that number is trustworthy. At Staple AI, every field we extract is backed by a confidence score, source reference, and a full decision lineage. This means you can always see where the data came from (down to the PDF line or image crop), which model processed it, and how it was verified. On top of that, our platform runs real-time validation against master data, tax rules, and business logic. For example, if a GST number doesn’t match the vendor name or if a subtotal doesn’t add up, Staple AI can flag it before it enters your ERP. This ensures not just accuracy — but auditability.
Our joint solutions solve key problems in:
Enterprises that operate globally often deal with a patchwork of document formats, tax regimes, currencies, and compliance requirements. This leads to fragmented data across regions, departments, and workflows. Staple AI helps unify that data by standardizing extraction across formats, languages, and jurisdictions. Whether you’re processing Fapiaos in China, delivery orders in Singapore, or customs invoices in Europe, Staple AI converts them all into structured, enriched, and reconciled datasets. The result is a single source of truth for document-based workflows, available to ERP, BI, and compliance systems alike.
ERP systems are built to standardize business processes — but real-world documents rarely follow ERP expectations. Local vendors send documents with unique layouts, unconventional date formats, hand-stamped approvals, or handwritten QC notes. This mismatch between document reality and ERP schema causes delays, rework, and failed validations. Staple AI bridges this gap by transforming unstructured, messy, non-standard documents into ERP-ready structured outputs. It maps vendor-specific labels to internal fields, handles localized numbering and tax formats, and even learns recurring patterns over time. This means data flows smoothly into your SAP, Oracle, or Microsoft Dynamics system — without needing an army of processors in between.
In industries like construction, finance, pharmaceuticals, or government, non-compliance isn’t just costly — it can halt operations. And with regulators demanding clearer audit trails, traceability in AI automation is no longer optional. Staple AI is purpose-built for such environments. Every document we process is logged, versioned, and traceable. We generate exportable logs (in JSON, XML, or CSV), attach source references to every extracted field, and support real-time audit queries via our chat interface. We also integrate with national tax portals and support frameworks like PEPPOL, Fapiao, and e-InvoiceNow. Our ISO 42001, ISO 27001, SOC 2 Type II, HIPAA, and GDPR certifications further ensure that data is not just accurate — but defensible, compliant, and secure.
When be one standardizes the ERP layer, and Staple AI automates the data extraction layer, global rollouts go from friction-heavy to scalable and compliant.
One of the key ideas we emphasized during the event was our approach to glass-box AI. Enterprises don’t just need data extraction. They need explainable, auditable, and compliant automation that their internal teams, partners, and regulators can trust.
Every document Staple AI processes is accompanied by:
Whether you’re dealing with regional e-invoicing rules, tax reporting, or regulatory oversight, the outputs from our platform are built to hold up to scrutiny.
Looking Ahead
It’s always exciting to co-present with be one solutions, especially in front of public-sector leaders and enterprises that are shaping the future of digital infrastructure.
When ERP meets explainable AI, transformation becomes a lot more manageable.
