AI wallet and Capabilities

What your business spends on AI and document reading, the limits it runs under, and the skills work is matched against.

Updated SettingsLast checked

Two settings that shape how work gets done. The AI wallet is what your business spends on AI, including Capture's document reading, and the limits it runs under. Capabilities are the skills your business offers, which work is matched against.

Capture's spend used to have a page of its own. It now sits in the AI wallet, under Document reading, and old links to it open there.

Before you start

  • The AI wallet needs access to Aiden usage. Without it you see You can't see the AI wallet. Changing the split, allocations or auto top-up needs the matching manage permission; without it the page is read-only.
  • Capabilities needs permission to view capabilities, and to manage them to add or change one.

The AI wallet

  1. Step 01

    Open the AI wallet

    Go to Settings, then AI wallet. The bar at the top shows how much of this month's wallet is used, split between Aiden, Document reading and Advisory. Choose another month at the top right to look back.

    AI wallet page with the month's balance, Spend by day, and three panels for Aiden, Document reading and Advisory. The Details button on Document reading is marked 1.

  2. Step 02

    Choose which documents are read

    On the Document reading panel, press Details. Under Documents to read, untick a kind of document to stop Orin reading figures from it. Unticked kinds are still identified and filed, which costs less. The same panel shows where documents ended up: Read, Filed, Not accepted or Failed.

    Document reading details panel with ticks for Purchase invoice, Sales invoice, Expense or receipt, Supplier credit note and Customer credit note, a period picker with Freeze this period, and counts of where documents ended up.

  3. Step 03

    Split the wallet between features

    Under Split by feature, give Aiden, Document reading or Advisory an amount of its own, or leave a box empty so that feature shares whatever is not allocated. Press Save. Under People you can give individuals their own amount; anyone without one shares the feature's pool.

  4. Step 04

    Top up when you need to

    Under Packs, Buy a pack adds to the wallet. Packs are spent after the monthly allowance, carry over from month to month, and never expire. Auto top-up buys a chosen pack when the wallet falls below a percentage you set, at most once a day, and emails administrators each time.

When the wallet is used up, AI features pause

The page says The wallet is used up, so AI features are paused until next month or until a pack is bought. Document reading stops rather than running on; documents still arrive and are filed.

Capabilities

A capability is competence, not access: what someone is qualified to do, rather than what they may see. Only somebody holding every capability a task requires can be given that work.

  1. Step 01

    See who holds a capability

    Go to Settings, then Capabilities, and select a capability. The panel on the right lists Who holds it. Choose a colleague under Give it to somebody and press Add, or use the cross beside a name to take it away.

    Capabilities list with the number of people holding each, and a panel listing who holds Bookkeeping with a Give it to somebody picker. The Add capability button is marked 1.
    Capabilities. 1: Add capability.
  2. Step 02

    Add a capability

    Press Add capability, enter a Name, and press Add capability in the dialog.

    Add a capability dialog with a single Name field.
    Adding a capability.
  3. Step 03

    Retire one you no longer offer

    Use the deactivate button on its row. It disappears from the capability pickers and nobody new can be recorded as holding it. It is not deleted: people who already hold it keep it. Find it again under Inactive.

Next steps

Common questions

Documents arrived without their figures.
Check the AI wallet. If it is used up, reading is paused until next month or a pack is bought. Also check the document kind is ticked under Documents to read.

Somebody cannot be assigned a task.
They probably do not hold a capability the task requires. Add it on the capability, or on their record in Access control.
