The call your team skips

The control exists. People skip it.

94% of companies say they call the vendor back on a number from official records. Only 63% say that control works well. Kovrell makes the call mandatory, runs it the same way every time, and records it. AFP 2026, PDF p. 15

Every bank change is held and checked first.

An email asks to move $184,200.00 to a new bank. Kovrell holds the payment, ignores the callback number in the email, and checks that the number of record is old and unchanged before it dials.

Verdict

VERIFIED

Released to Chase ending 8841.

Identity, 3 of 3 ledger checks, and readback confirmed.

Built for audit

Controls that hold up

A callback control, run the same way on every change.

Number of record only

Kovrell calls the contact in your vendor master. A callback number inside the request is logged and never used.

Provenance lock

If the number of record changed in the last 30 days, the call is locked and a person has to verify.

Ledger challenge

Three questions only the real vendor can answer, drawn at random from recent paid invoices on every call. The agent never hears the answers.

One attempt per question

The first answer counts. Retries are logged and ignored, so a caller cannot guess their way through.

Fixed verdict rules

The model collects answers. Code decides: pass releases, fail blocks, anything else keeps the payment held.

Sealed evidence

Recording, transcript, every tool call, and expected versus heard answers, sealed with sha256.

Integration

Plugs into your payment run.

Your ERP keeps the vendor master and the payment schedule. Kovrell holds the payment, makes the call, and tells your ERP what to do.
