It’s easy to see why building your own finance AI solution is tempting. A demo comes together quickly, and it looks like a cheap, easy win. The trouble, however, starts once the pilot is over, when maintenance, compliance, exception handling and running costs show up…and compound. Getting matching and exceptions right at scale takes years of processing data that a new build simply can’t shortcut.

In this 45-minute fireside chat, Basware’s CFO and CIO give you both sides of the table, with its Chief Product and Technology Officer guiding the conversation. They talk about where building still makes sense, why governance needs to be baked in from day one, and why most enterprises end up blending: buying the core from a specialist, configuring it to fit, and building only where the process is truly unique. What you’ll take away:

  • A practical way to decide what to buy, blend or build, one capability at a time.
  • A clearer picture of the costs a pilot doesn’t show you.
  • Why buying from a specialist gives you more control, not less.
