inferonIQ automatically profiles your schema — discovering tables, columns, relationships, and data types within seconds.

Step 3: Ask Your First Question

Open the Ask AI panel (or go to NL2SQL) and type a question in plain English:

Show me top 10 customers by revenue
How many orders were placed last month?
Which invoices are unpaid over 30 days?

The engine generates SQL, executes it safely (read-only), and returns results with a natural language explanation.

Step 4: Upload an Invoice (Optional)

  2. Click Upload → drag a PDF invoice
  3. AI extracts vendor, amounts, line items in ~3 seconds
  4. If you have POs in your database, 3-Way Matching runs automatically

Step 5: Set Up a Contract (Optional)

  1. Go to Contract Intelligence
  2. Upload a vendor contract (PDF)
  3. AI extracts: pricing terms, SLA targets, rebate schedules, expiry dates
  4. Future invoices are cross-checked against contract terms automatically
