Invoices that read themselves — inbox to structured books

The most boring job in any business: supplier invoices arrive as email attachments, and someone retypes them into the books. It's slow, it's error-prone, and it's exactly the work nobody should still be doing by hand.

An inbox pipeline watches for invoices over IMAP, hands each one to Gemini to classify and extract — supplier, line items, totals, dates — and applies the structured result straight into a Postgres/Supabase ledger. It was hardened against a reliability corpus of real invoices, so it holds up on the messy documents suppliers actually send, not just clean samples.

Inside BakeryOS, a production operations platform. (The visual above is synthetic — real supplier identities never leave the system.)

The same inbox→extract→apply shape lifts onto any document-heavy back office — invoices today, contracts or receipts tomorrow.
