PlateIQ

Ottimate (formerly Plate IQ) is an AI-powered accounts payable automation platform for restaurants, hospitality, and multi-location businesses. It captures and GL-codes invoices with high accuracy via its InstantCapture engine, automates approval workflows and PO/receipt matching in Core AP, and sends vendor payments via ACH, check, or virtual card through VendorPay. Ottimate exposes a partner-provisioned REST API (OpenAPI 3.1) over JSON with OAuth2 client-credentials plus API-key auth, idempotent writes, bulk and asynchronous operations, and ERP integrations for QuickBooks, NetSuite, Sage Intacct, Acumatica, and Microsoft Dynamics.

PlateIQ publishes 9 APIs on the APIs.io network, including accounts API, batch API, catalog API, and 6 more. Tagged areas include Company, Enterprise Saas, Accounts Payable, Invoice Automation, and Payments.

PlateIQ’s developer surface includes documentation, API reference, getting-started guide, engineering blog, support, changelog, authentication, and 23 more developer resources.

Regulatory Posture applies to this provider. Its tags matched the Payments regime, so Regulatory Posture carries 15 points of the composite. If this regime is wrong for your business, say so on your provider repo — the applicability map is public and we will correct it.

The six quality facets above are damped to 85 points between them, because the conditional facet above carries the other 15. That is why each facet's contribution is shown against a damped maximum: raising a quality facet moves the composite by 85% of its nominal weight, not 100%. The full arithmetic is at apis.io/rating/.

Improve this rating by publishing the missing artifacts — every area above can be raised, and the full rubric is at apis.io/rating/. Every facet and dimension name above is a link: it opens that measurement's own page — what it means, the exact checks that feed it, how the whole catalog distributes on it, and the providers at the top of it. This rating is computed from github.com/api-evangelist/plateiq: open an issue to ask a question, or submit a pull request to add artifacts.
