Watch Jason Staats Explain Why MakersHub AI Sets a New Bar for Accounts Payable

A firsthand look at how true line-item intelligence transforms bill capture, coding, and approvals.

In Their Own Words

"Most people think AI is just some computer wanting to take over the world. They'd be shocked to hear that we use AI right now and it works. It eliminated days of data entry that no one wanted to do. It freed up our employees to engage in the kind of meaningful work they enjoy."

About Us

Built by AI Nerds Who Lived the AP Chaos

MakersHub was founded by Phong Ngo and Charley Howe, Wharton classmates and close friends. While running an advanced manufacturing company, Phong repeatedly hit the same wall: AP workflows that could not keep up with operational complexity. Alongside Charley, a finance veteran with deep fintech experience, they built the AP platform Phong wished existed in his prior life.

AI-first and purpose-built for operationally mature businesses, MakersHub focuses on automation, control, and clarity in the decisions made long before a bill is paid.

How MakersHub compares

If you’re weighing MakersHub against Ramp or BILL, here’s where the difference shows up.

MakersHub

Ramp

BILL

Core focus

AP-first, purpose-built for operationally complex, physical-economy businesses (construction, trades, manufacturing, multi-entity).

Card and spend platform; Bill Pay (AP) is an add-on module.

AP/AR plus spend and expense; built for a broad SMB base.

Line-item capture

Reads every line of every bill and maps each line to your chart of accounts as it's captured — all fields including SKUs, quantities, and job/project codes.

AI/OCR captures header and line-item detail; coding is card/expense-first.

Header level capture, unreliable at line level.

Job, phase and cost-code coding

Codes each line to the job, phase, cost code, class, or customer as it reads the bill — purpose-built for job-cost workflows.

Limited mapping to class, customer/job, and custom dimensions, applied after capture; not a purpose-built job-cost model.

Passes class (department) and customer:job through from your GL; GL/header-oriented, not built for construction job costing.

Line-level PO and receipt matching

2- and 3-way matching at the line level, applied as the bill is read — no separate procurement module or PO-origination constraints.

2- and 3-way line-item matching, via the Procurement module; PO import limited to NetSuite, Sage Intacct, and QuickBooks Online (not Desktop).

2- and 3-way matching against POs and receipts.

Multi-entity / client book

One platform across every entity. Routes each bill to the right entity by vendor, bill-to, ship-to, or PO number, with consistent coding and approvals throughout.

Multi-entity supported (Enterprise tier); on QuickBooks Online, each entity connects as a separate Ramp account/company.

Multi-entity management with a parent company, cross-entity payments, and intercompany entries; accounting sync is still managed per entity.

QuickBooks Integration

Every version: Online, Desktop via Web Connector, Enterprise, hosted environments, and Intuit Enterprise Suite.

Online and Desktop — but Desktop is via manual IIF file export/import, not a live sync.

Online and Desktop.

ERP sync depth

In-house, direct integrations with QuickBooks, Xero, Sage Intacct, NetSuite, IES, and custom via API. Syncs every line item, not just the bill header.

Direct integrations largely via flat file data exchange.

Direct integrations; two-way sync of lists (accounts, vendors, classes, items) with your ERP.

WiseVision reasoning layer

Auto-codes every line, flags exceptions, and answers questions in plain language from your bills. Agentic Bill data transformations & Integration mapping rule configuration, and more.

AI agents auto-code and flag anomalies; plain-language querying is procurement-oriented.

AI-assisted coding and anomaly detection; no conversational reasoning layer over your books.

FAQs

Yes. Every line is coded to the job, phase, cost code, class or customer using rules you set once.

MakersHub handles subsidiary structures with consistent coding and approvals across every entity. It reads vendor name, bill-to name and address, ship-to details or PO number and assigns the right entity automatically.

Yes. QuickBooks Online connects in seconds; QuickBooks Desktop syncs through the Web Connector for reliable, on-demand updates.

OCR reads characters off a page. WiseVision reads every line, understands what it is in the context of your accounting data, and answers questions about it in plain language. The intelligence that used to live in one person’s head now lives in the system.
