Sortio for Small Business Back Office: Bookkeeping and Operations
Sortio for Back Office & Bookkeepers

Vendor invoice organization software for the back office.

Sortio is an AI bookkeeping file organizer that reads vendor invoices, payroll registers, and ops records on your workstation, renames each file to YYYYMMDD, Vendor, Amount, and routes it to the right vendor or project folder in OneDrive, Dropbox, or SharePoint. Built for AP filing automation across multi-year backlogs in the thousands.

How it works

Four steps from a chaotic OneDrive to vendor-organized, date-stamped, amount-tagged files.

Step 1

Point at OneDrive or Dropbox

Select your shared OneDrive, Dropbox, or local invoice folder. Sortio handles batches in the thousands. Customers have processed 3,000+ file backlogs in a single run.

Step 2

AI reads each invoice

Sortio's AI extracts vendor name, invoice date, invoice number, amount, and project or job number from each PDF or scan. Reading happens locally on your machine. Nothing is uploaded.

Step 3

Routed by vendor or project

Each file lands in the right vendor folder or project subfolder. Duplicate vendor folders (the classic "Aster" vs "Aster Inc" problem) get consolidated. Multi-year payroll is grouped by year and pay period.

Step 4

Renamed by content

Every file is renamed to a consistent pattern: '20250412 - Aster Construction - $4,820.50 - INV-1138.pdf'. Vendor invoice retrieval at tax time becomes a one-line search instead of a half-day hunt.

The Filing Problem

Three patterns we hear from bookkeepers at construction firms, trucking companies, and municipal service districts.

Folder-name chaos

Three folders named 'Aster', 'Aster Inc', and 'Aster Construction', all containing invoices from the same vendor. Typos, abbreviations, and whoever set up the folder structure five years ago. By the time anyone notices, there are thousands of files in the wrong place.

Multi-year payroll backlogs

A bookkeeper inherits a OneDrive with a decade of board packets, pay stubs, and operations records scattered across nested year folders, with duplicates everywhere. Cleaning it up by hand is a six-month project nobody has time for. So it sits.

Invoice retrieval at tax time

The accountant asks for every invoice from a specific vendor in Q3. You start clicking through Downloads, the shared OneDrive, and three Outlook attachments folders. An hour later you're still not sure you got them all. Files exist. Finding them is the job.

Privacy by design

Your books never touch our servers

Sortio runs entirely on your Mac or PC. When it reads a vendor invoice to extract the amount and date, that happens locally. The file content never leaves your machine. Your OneDrive stays your OneDrive, your Dropbox stays your Dropbox.

For bookkeepers handling payroll and vendor banking details, that matters. There is no cloud processing step where your client's financials pass through a third-party server.

Works with your stack

Sortio works on OneDrive, Dropbox, SharePoint, and local drives. It plays well with QuickBooks and Xero exports, files renamed by Sortio drop straight into your accounting workflow without remapping.

Audit trail

Every move is logged locally with the source path, destination, and the AI's confidence score. If an invoice lands in the wrong vendor folder, you can trace exactly what happened and undo it in one click.

Simple pricing

Frequently asked questions

Vendor invoice organization, AP filing automation, payroll archives, and records retention for small business back offices.

Yes. Point Sortio at the folder where vendor invoices land (OneDrive, Dropbox, SharePoint, or a local drive) and it reads each PDF or scan, identifies the vendor, and routes the file to that vendor's folder. If a vendor folder does not exist yet, Sortio can create it. Bookkeepers at construction and trucking firms commonly run this on 3,000-plus file backlogs in a single sort.
