Every invoice, faster and clearer.

Station 01 · Extracted

Invoice data entry, automated

The moment an invoice lands in your inbox, every detail is extracted automatically, so your team approves instead of typing and saves hours every week.

  • Vendor and invoice details captured automatically
  • Each line item read individually: description, quantity, rate, GST and amount
  • Possible duplicate invoices flagged before you pay
  • No spreadsheets, no re-keying, no chasing

  • Third-party rates read straight from the invoice as your cost
  • Client billed by passthrough, fixed rate, percentage markup or bespoke rule from your service rates
  • Margin worked out on every line and across the whole invoice

Station 05 · Published

Published back to both systems

Once an invoice is approved, Invoice Harbour posts it to your finance system so the supplier can be paid, and to your care platform so case managers see what was billed and spend can be claimed back from Services Australia.

  • Approved bills published to your finance system, ready to pay the supplier
  • Same bill published to your care platform for case manager visibility
  • Spend ready to claim back from Services Australia through your care platform

Customer stories

Trusted by aged care providers across Australia.

60%

Less headcount involved in invoice processing since implementing Invoice Harbour, in Kate Hansford's words at Perth Care Partners.

Gemma at her desk at Home Care Assistance Newcastle

It has reclaimed my time, given us deeper insights, and allowed us to refocus our energy on supporting our clients.

GemmaCompliance & Finance Manager, Home Care Assistance Newcastle

Invoice Harbour has been a game changer for our organisation. It has allowed us to more clearly track client budgets through the use of purchase orders, which was not available with other invoice processing software. The team are extremely proactive and responsive and are constantly building on a fantastic platform. The integration with our other software (Xero and the Lookout) means we have data in real time.

G
Geoff DohertyDirector of Operations, 101 Home Care

As a business owner moving to Support at Home was very stressful. Purchase Orders in Lookout are powerful but very labour intensive. Invoice Harbour took both third-party invoices and Lookout PO's and made everything simple and connected. Massive time saver. The software lets me review the margin on every invoice before it gets processed. I can't imagine making this transition without it.

MarkDirector, Home Care Assistance Newcastle

Since implementing Invoice Harbour, we have reduced headcount involved in invoice processing by 60%. It has made managing and processing Associate Provider services under Support at Home simple and hassle free. The Invoice Harbour team is responsive, helpful and quick to address any queries or requests. Well worth the investment!

Built for care, from the inside out

Our story

Built for care, from the inside out.

One of our founders, Jeremy Burns, spent years inside the accounting team of a home care provider in Newcastle NSW, where he saw first-hand how much time went into reconciling invoices, chasing approvals and stitching together data from disconnected systems.

As the sector moved toward Support at Home, providers needed something designed for the realities of the new funding model rather than retrofitted from older ones. Jeremy partnered with his brother Lachlan, who joined as co-founder to design and build the platform.
