The Daily Dig

Miter, a workforce and expense management platform built for construction, announced on August 6 the launch of Miter Accounts Payable. The product handles invoice capture, job and cost code coding, approval routing, and vendor payment in one place. It runs on the same platform that already handles Miter's payroll, time tracking, and job costing.

The launch addresses a gap Miter says shows up on most jobs. Contractors can usually say what they bid a project at. Few can say what it's actually costing them in real time. Miter points to labor and vendor bills as a job's two biggest inputs, but says they typically sit in separate systems. That means invoices get keyed in by hand, coded to the wrong job, or paid twice.

Miter Accounts Payable is built to catch that gap while a job is still running. Contractors forward an invoice, and Miter's AI drafts the bill, then splits it across jobs and cost codes line by line. Each line carries its own job, cost code, cost type, and GL account. It also routes to the project manager who owns that work, with coding and payment approvals kept separate. The system flags invoices that look like duplicates or possible fraud before a check goes out.

On the payment side, Miter pays vendors by ACH or check and syncs every bill to the connected ERP. Because Miter also runs payroll, recurring obligations like benefits, 401(k) contributions, garnishments, and insurance remittances generate automatically as AP bills. The goal is a single, current view of labor and vendor spend on the same job ledger.

Miter Accounts Payable is available now to Miter customers. They can request a demo or find details at miter.com/expense-management/accounts-payable. More than 1,700 contractors currently run on Miter, which was named NetSuite's 2025 Breakthrough Partner of the Year and holds CFMA Elite Partner status. The company is backed by Battery Ventures, Bessemer Venture Partners, and Coatue.

TheJobWalk Thoughts

The real value here is timing. Coding bills to the wrong job is a quiet margin killer, and most contractors don't catch it until the books close weeks later, well after the job has moved on. Linking vendor bills to labor cost while the job is still open gives a PM a real shot at correcting course before the budget is already blown.

This also raises the bar on what contractors should expect from job cost software going forward. Once a platform shows labor and vendor spend on one ledger in real time, a standalone AP tool that only reconciles after close starts to look like a real disadvantage, not just an inconvenience.

For sales teams calling on GCs already running Miter, the shift to automated coding and routed approvals is worth understanding early. Subs who can submit clean, well-documented invoices are better positioned as these systems take hold, since line-item accuracy is now built directly into how bills get approved.
