In the webinar What We Got Right, What We Got Wrong: A Sit Down with PaperTrl’s CEO, host Braylee Hsu sits down with PaperTrl CEO and co-founder Steve Weber to discuss key shifts in the AP and B2B payments landscape. In this candid interview, Weber explains that much of today’s AI messaging in AP is hype-driven, with the real value of AI currently coming from natural-language reporting and support—not autonomous decision-making. The conversation highlights growing concerns around check fraud, pre-funded payment models, and AP platforms holding customer cash, and contrasts it with PaperTrl’s account-to-account approach as more secure, cash-flow friendly, and bank-aligned. Reflecting on 2025, Weber notes a couple missed opportunities while outlining new 2026 priorities including wire support, real-time payment readiness, expanded integrations, and stronger enterprise security—reinforcing PaperTrl’s focus on giving finance teams full control over how and when payments are made.
