The AI Document Suite: your own key, five document jobs

Five self-hosted tools for the five documents a small firm retypes by hand, at $199.00 against $405.00 bought apart. Every one runs on your own AI key, which means a second bill this store does not meter and cannot predict, and a review step none of them removes.

Five kinds of paper land on a small firm's desk in an ordinary week: invoices and receipts from suppliers, a batch of expense receipts at month end, a spec sheet from a new supplier, a purchase order and its packing slip that need matching against each other, and a bank or card statement that has to be reconciled against the books. All five get retyped by hand, by someone, because that is how it has always been done.

The AI Document Suite bundles five self-hosted tools, one for each of those jobs, for $199.00 (extended licence $449.00). Each tool runs on your own AI key rather than a key the store supplies, which is the point this page spends most of its words on, because it changes what you are actually buying.

The five, and the job each does

ProductThe job, in the store's own wordsSingle licence
ExtractaExtract invoice and receipt data with your own AI key; self-hosted, human-reviewed.$89.00
ExpensaBatch-upload receipts and let your own AI key extract, categorise and total them into an accountant-ready report.$89.00
SpectaBatch-process up to 20 spec sheets with an AI queue, then review only the fields confidence-scoring flags.$99.00
CargoraExtract POs and packing slips with your own AI key, then catch short shipments and price gaps automatically.$69.00
LedgiraUpload bank or card statements and let your own AI key extract every line and auto-reconcile the balance.$59.00

The arithmetic, labelled as arithmetic: add the five single licences and the total is $405.00. The suite is $199.00, a saving of $206.00 against buying them one at a time -- the largest saving of the eleven single-workflow suites, checked against all eleven suite pages on 2026-09-07. (The two whole-catalogue bundles save more in absolute terms, which is what buying forty-eight products at once does.) The extended licence covers every domain you operate plus one build handed over to a client, for $449.00.

The centre of this: your key, your bill, your server

Every one of the five runs on your own AI key, not one the store provides or bills through. That is not a footnote. It decides two things worth knowing before anything else about this suite.

The first is cost. Whichever provider you point the software at bills you directly, at that provider's own rate, for whatever volume you run through it. This store does not meter that usage, does not take a cut of it, and cannot tell you in advance what it will cost for your volume, because that figure depends on your documents, your chosen provider and that provider's rate -- none of which the store sees or controls.

The second is where the documents go. They travel to the provider whose key you configured, sent from your own server. They do not pass through Ownware on the way. What is being sold here is software that calls out using a key you hold; it is not a service that receives your invoices, receipts or statements on your behalf.

If either of those two facts is unwelcome -- if what you actually want is one vendor, one bill, and no key of your own to configure -- this suite is not built for that, and no setting inside it changes that shape.

A review step, not an autopilot

None of the five is built to run unattended. Extracta is human-reviewed: what it extracts is put in front of a person before it is treated as fact rather than filed straight to the ledger. Specta narrows the review rather than removing it -- it batch-processes up to 20 spec sheets through an AI queue and then asks you to check only the fields its own confidence-scoring flags, not the whole sheet. Cargora works the same way from the other direction: it extracts the purchase order and packing slip, then flags short shipments and price gaps for a person to look at, rather than quietly deciding a shipment is fine. Ledgira auto-reconciles bank and card statements to a balance, and that balance is the check -- if it does not tie out, you know before the statement is filed rather than after.

Expensa's own description in the store stops at the report: it extracts, categorises and totals a batch of receipts into an accountant-ready report. The report itself is the thing a person reads before it goes anywhere further, since a report is not a queue that clears on its own.

A document tool that does not show you what it read is the one to avoid. That includes this one, if it ever stopped doing it.

What renting the same job costs

Specta's job -- turning spec sheets into structured data -- is also sold by the month elsewhere. The suite's own page prints Jasper PIM's published price of $999.00 a month, read 2026-09-03, and the year-one figure beside it: $11,988.00. That number is the published monthly price multiplied by twelve and nothing else; it assumes the rate never changes, which a subscription's rate is free to do. Specta's single licence, against that, is $99.00.

Extracta has its own comparison, from the store's rent calculator: Veryfi, an OCR API, at $500.00 a month, read 2026-09-07, against Extracta's $89.00 once. Neither figure says anything about what your own AI key will cost you to run Extracta or Specta -- that is the separate, unmetered bill described above. It only says what the rented alternative charges to do the equivalent job.

Who should not buy this

Somebody handling a handful of documents a month -- a few invoices, an occasional supplier statement -- will not push enough volume through any of these five to justify configuring an AI key, watching a second bill that is not the licence, and reviewing a queue every week. For that volume, retyping the documents by hand costs less time than setting any of this up, and the honest answer is to keep doing it.

Somebody who wants a hosted service that never asks them to configure a key, where one vendor bills one number and the extraction happens on infrastructure they never see, should stay where they are. That is a real product category and this suite is not it. What is on offer here is software you run yourself, pointed at a key you hold, with the review steps above built in rather than optional -- and there is no version of any of the five that removes the key or the review.

For the firm that does have the volume and wants to hold the key itself, the AI Document Suite is the five tools together at $199.00, against $405.00 bought one at a time.
