Compare
How Overtrace compares.
Today a T&M billing package gets audited one of three ways: by a senior person with a spreadsheet, by an outside firm weeks later, or not line by line at all. Software for neighboring jobs — AP automation, billing platforms, estimating tools — handles the invoice, not the thousands of pages behind it. Overtrace audits those pages.
The landscape
Three ways to audit a T&M package.
By hand, in-house
- The reviewer knows the project
- Spot-checks what there’s time for
- Hours of senior time every month
- Proof assembled from screenshots
Outside audit & review firms
- Deep expertise & industry specialists
- Weeks of turnaround, often after payment
- Results depend on who reviewed it
- Hourly or contingency fees
Overtrace
- Every line of every page, in minutes
- Every finding cited to its page
- The same rules on every package
- Your team makes every call
