What we can build with Oracle NetSuite
ShooflyAI builds agents that run inside NetSuite against your real records and saved searches, handling the repetitive matching and data movement of finance work while leaving judgment calls to your team. Every change is logged with a full audit trail and routed to a reviewer before posting.
These are example builds, not client case studies. We scope the real build to your stack and put an ROI estimate on it in an Operating Assessment first.
With NetSuite and AI agents you can automate three-way match, bank and intercompany reconciliation, month-end close prep, AP coding, and AR collections inside your ERP, clearing clean items and routing only exceptions to your team, with a human reviewing before anything posts. NetSuite's native AI, mainly Text Enhance for drafting field text and Bill Capture for AP entry, helps with content and data capture but does not run your reconciliation workflows on its own. ShooflyAI builds a custom agent that works your real records and saved searches end to end, keeps a full audit trail, and reaches across your CRM, billing, and warehouse systems. Your finance team owns the code, data, models, and IP.

Using Oracle NetSuite on its own vs. a custom ShooflyAI agent
| Dimension | NetSuite Text Enhance and Bill Capture | Custom ShooflyAI agent |
|---|---|---|
| Setup | Built in, mostly text and capture helpers | Built to your records, searches, and close process |
| Handles your multi-step workflows | Drafts text and captures bills, not full reconciliation | Runs match, reconcile, and close prep end to end |
| Works across your other systems | Stays inside NetSuite | Syncs with CRM, billing, and warehouse data |
| Who owns and maintains it | Oracle owns it, you wait on the roadmap | You own the code, data, and IP |
| Cost model | Bundled and add-on AI within licensing | Build it once, then own and run it |
Frequently asked questions
Can an AI agent help us close the books faster in NetSuite?
Yes. An agent can prepare reconciliations, match transactions, flag variances, and draft close entries for your team to review. It does the repetitive preparation so accountants spend their time on judgment, not data gathering.
Will the agent post journal entries on its own?
Only if you want it to, and we strongly recommend a human reviewer for anything that posts. By default the agent prepares and proposes; a person approves. Every action is captured in an audit log.
How does it handle exceptions and edge cases?
The agent applies your matching rules, clears the clean items, and routes anything ambiguous to a reviewer with the context attached. Exceptions become a short worklist instead of a manual hunt.
Is our financial data safe and traceable?
Yes. The agent connects through scoped NetSuite access, every change is logged with who, what, and when, and you keep a complete audit trail. You own the data and the infrastructure it runs on.
Do we own the agent or license it forever?
You own it. ShooflyAI builds the custom agent and hands over the code, models, data, and IP, so there is no recurring per-seat licensing for the logic itself.
Want to see what we would build for you?
We start with an Operating Assessment that maps your highest-value workflows and puts a hard ROI estimate on them before any build. You own the code, the data, and the IP.
