Yokoy Listed as a Sample Vendor in the Gartner® Hype Cycle™ for Procurement and Sourcing Solutions, 2023

Yokoy, the leader in Accounts Payable Invoice Automation (APIA), has been recognised in Gartner’s Hype Cycle Report for 2023, the analyst’s annual report into the maturity and benefit of emerging technologies in procurement and sourcing. 

 

Yokoy was named a sample vendor in the APIA category, with the well-established and much recognised methodology positioning the category as ‘Early Mainstream’ with a benefit rating of ‘High’. 

 

Gartner defines APIA as tools that ‘automate the capture, validation, and processing of invoices’.
