Ready for publish

Maverick spend hides in the long tail. It is the card charge, the off-contract invoice, the renewal nobody routed, and it adds up to real money.

Flo reads spend across your systems, compares it to contracts and approved process, and flags the charges that went around the rails. It groups the patterns and routes them for review.

Flo flags patterns. Finance and procurement act. The leakage becomes visible, so you can close the gaps instead of guessing where they are.
