AutoEntry, owned by Sage since 2019, is a capable data-capture tool with a long list of integrations. Its pricing is built on credits, and the credit cost depends on what you capture. That's usually where the comparison starts.
Facts are as of 7 October 2026, taken from each vendor's public pages. Sources are listed at the end.
How AutoEntry's credits work
AutoEntry sells monthly plans, priced in USD below:
| Plan | Credits a month | Price | |---|---|---| | Bronze | 50 | $13 | | Silver | 100 | $24 | | Gold | 200 | $46 | | Platinum | 500 | $103 | | Diamond | 1,500 | $298 | | Sapphire | 2,500 | $469 |
What each document costs:
| Document | AutoEntry | Invoreg AI | |---|---|---| | Invoice, header only | 1 credit | 1 credit | | Invoice with every line | 2 credits | 1 credit | | Bank or card statement | 3 credits per page | 1 credit per 3 pages | | Unused credits | Roll over up to 90 days | Valid for a 12-month credit year |
Sage published new AutoEntry pricing from 1 September 2025, including a 10% rise on custom packages.
A worked example: 500 invoices a month, all with line items. On AutoEntry that's 1,000 credits a month, which falls on the Diamond plan at US$298 a month. On Invoreg AI it's 6,000 documents a year: one Large and one Medium pack, €2,010 a year, about €168 a month. There's a one-off setup fee from €199 and the first 20 invoices are free. Run your own numbers.
Where Invoreg AI fits better
- Line items on every invoice without paying double.
- Bank reconciliation: statements are read line by line and each payment is matched to its invoices, at invoice prices.
- Approvals at one, two or three levels before anything is booked. We found no supplier-invoice approval step in AutoEntry's documentation.
- Zoho Books firms: AutoEntry doesn't list Zoho Books. Invoreg AI posts into it natively.
- Seasonal volume: credits last a year, not 90 days.
Where AutoEntry is the better choice
- You're on Sage, Xero, QuickBooks, FreeAgent or Exact today. AutoEntry integrates with all of them. Invoreg AI posts into Zoho Books today, with Xero and QuickBooks Online planned and an XML/CSV import file for other systems.
- You need supplier statement reconciliation or staff expense reports with a mobile app.
- Your volume is small and header-only: 50 simple invoices for US$13 a month is hard to beat.
How to decide
Count last month's documents in three buckets: simple invoices, invoices you coded line by line, and bank-statement pages. Price both tools on that split. Book a demo and bring a sample from each bucket.
