Agent to agent network for B2B finance where buyer and supplier AI agents settle invoices, disputes, and payment terms directly in real time, aiming to retire fixed net payment terms.

Causa Prima is building an agent to agent network for finance teams in which a buyer's agent and a supplier's agent handle invoicing, disputes and early payment discounts between the two companies directly and in real time, so that money moves on agreed terms without either side chasing the other.

On the network an arriving invoice is picked up by the agents, which negotiate across a buyer's invoices while the supplier's agent reconciles purchase orders, surface recommendations such as an early payment discount grounded in the relationship's history, and put each recommendation in front of the finance team with Modify, Explain and Confirm actions before it takes effect. The company reports more than 3,000 accounts on the network, offers a free tier for smaller businesses and an enterprise offering sold through its team.

Its first freely available product, Scribo, is a conversational e-invoicing tool that generates EN 16931 compliant ZUGFeRD and XRechnung invoices and plain US PDFs through a public HTTP API with an OpenAPI specification, a hosted MCP server, a command line tool and an agent skill, all free and without signup. Founded in 2026 with offices in Madrid and Munich by Maex Ament, a co-founder of Taulia and the inventor of dynamic discounting, Henrik Gebbing of Finoa, and Philip Stanislaus, it raised a $10 million pre seed round led by Creandum in June 2026. Its security attestations, hosting and integrations with customer systems are not yet described on its public pages, so a finance team evaluating it should expect to ask.

Integrations

Connects corporate buyers and suppliers into one shared network so their AI agents can exchange and act on invoices, approvals, disputes, and payment terms directly, spanning both accounts payable and accounts receivable. Connections into a customer's own ledgers or ERPs are not documented. Scribo, the first free product, exposes a public HTTP API with an OpenAPI specification, a hosted MCP server, a command line tool and an agent skill for invoice generation.

In practice

An invoice dispute with a supplier turns into weeks of emails and missed follow ups because your systems and theirs do not talk. Causa Prima puts both sides' agents on one network so they resolve the dispute directly.

You want to offer or capture early payment discounts, but negotiating terms manually with every counterparty does not scale. Causa Prima's agents negotiate payment timing and discounts automatically in real time.

Your AP and AR tools each cover only your side of a transaction. Causa Prima connects buyer and supplier agents on a shared network so approvals, terms, and payments settle between companies without human back and forth.

Integrations & Tool Calling	Not documented
No integration into the customer's own systems is documented: the homepage describes a shared network both buyer and supplier join, the product runs behind app.causaprima.ai, and the Scribo documentation covers invoice generation and email delivery rather than connections to ledgers or ERPs. SourceCausa Prima, causaprima.ai and github.com/causa-prima-ai/scribo-api-docsread 2026-09-06
Workflow Orchestration	Full
The homepage documents a two sided network on which a buyer agent negotiates across hundreds of invoices while a supplier agent reconciles purchase orders, and the agents handle invoicing, disputes and early payment discounts between the two companies in real time and settle on terms without a person chasing either side. All of this comes from a single marketing page. SourceCausa Prima, causaprima.airead 2026-09-06
Knowledge Grounding & RAG	Partial
The homepage's recommendation card grounds a discount proposal in fourteen months of supplier history held on the network, context drawn from the network's own transaction records at the moment of the recommendation. No maintained retrieval structure over the customer's documents, policies or knowledge is documented. SourceCausa Prima, causaprima.airead 2026-09-06
Human Oversight & Guardrails	Full
The homepage documents the product's recommendation card, an active recommendation of a $970 early payment saving with a supplier carrying Modify, Explain and Confirm actions for the finance team, and describes agents that negotiate terms and settle disputes on the network. A person can modify, ask for the reasoning behind, and confirm an agent's proposed action before it takes effect. How to set what agents may settle without confirmation is not documented. SourceCausa Prima, causaprima.airead 2026-09-06
Security, Identity & Governance	Not documented
No attestation, certification, trust center or customer facing access model is published, and the Scribo API documentation names only a security contact address. SourceCausa Prima, causaprima.ai/privacy and github.com/causa-prima-ai/scribo-api-docsread 2026-09-06
Observability & Auditability	Partial
Each recommendation the agents surface carries an Explain action returning the reasoning behind it, and the vendor promises visibility of where every invoice stands. No run trace, audit log of agent actions or export is documented. SourceCausa Prima, causaprima.airead 2026-09-06
Memory & State Persistence	Not documented
The invoice, purchase order and relationship state the agents work over is the network's transaction record, which is the application's data model; deleting it would delete the business record, so it is not a memory layer. No memory layer with a stated scope and lifetime and no conversational session state is documented. SourceCausa Prima, causaprima.airead 2026-09-06
Deployment & Data Residency	Not documented
Where product data is hosted, and whether a region can be chosen, is not published. The website privacy policy covers the corporate site only, naming Vercel as the website host, and points to the product's own privacy notice at app.causaprima.ai/privacy for product processing; the Scribo API is served from scribo.causaprima.ai with no hosting region stated. SourceCausa Prima, causaprima.ai/privacyread 2026-09-06
Prebuilt Agents, Templates & Packs	Partial
The network runs a buyer agent and a supplier agent, each side receiving the agent for its role. The two are the product's own machinery rather than a set of prebuilt agents a customer browses or selects among. SourceCausa Prima, causaprima.airead 2026-09-06
Triggers & Channel Coverage	Full
The homepage's product walkthrough starts when an invoice arrives on the network and the agents pick it up in real time, with a recommendation surfaced against an offer closing date, and the vendor describes money moving on the right terms at the right time on its own. That walkthrough is the only place the mechanism is shown. SourceCausa Prima, causaprima.airead 2026-09-06
Model Flexibility & Routing	Not documented
Which model providers process customer data is not stated, and no customer or admin selection of a model is documented. The only named third party in the Scribo pipeline is an invoice validator, which is not a model. SourceCausa Prima, causaprima.ai/privacy and github.com/causa-prima-ai/scribo-api-docs; causaprima.airead 2026-09-06
APIs, SDKs & MCP Extensibility	Full
Scribo, which Causa Prima describes as its first freely available skill and an early glimpse of the platform, is documented on the vendor's GitHub with a public HTTP API of eight endpoints under /api/v1, a canonical OpenAPI 3.1 document, an anonymous rate limited access model with optional partner bearer keys, and idempotency and error envelopes. A hosted MCP server at scribo.causaprima.ai/mcp, an npm CLI and an agent skill all call the same API, with the canonical reference at scribo.causaprima.ai/docs/api. The API covers Scribo's invoice generation and verification only; the agent to agent network's negotiation and dispute functions expose no documented API. SourceCausa Prima, github.com/causa-prima-ai/scribo-api-docsread 2026-09-06
Testing, Debugging & Optimization	Not documented
No evaluation harness, scored test cases, quality gate on a change to an agent or optimization loop is documented on the homepage or in the Scribo documentation. Scribo validates every generated invoice against an external EN 16931 validator, which checks each output rather than a change to the agent.

Browser & Computer Use	Not documented
Agents act on invoices, disputes and terms inside the vendor's own network and Scribo generates documents over an HTTP API; no browser, desktop or computer control is documented. SourceCausa Prima, causaprima.ai and github.com/causa-prima-ai/scribo-api-docsread 2026-09-06

Pricing

Free (SMB); contact for enterprise

Free tier

What is public

The SMB tier is free to use and Enterprise is by contact; no rates, plan limits or pricing model are disclosed.

Billing mechanics

Not disclosed beyond the free SMB tier and contact-led Enterprise.

Cost watchouts

Transaction or network based pricing could scale with payment volume, and early stage integration work may be required to connect counterparties.

Variable cost rationale

A two sided network for financial transactions would most likely price on transaction or payment volume, so cost would tend to scale with the number and size of settlements, though nothing is disclosed at pre seed.

Additional watchouts

As a very early network, value depends on both your counterparties joining, so assess network coverage and confirm pricing and security posture directly before relying on it.
