Six modules, one set of plumbing underneath.
Each module handles a kind of paperwork a business cannot avoid. They share the same people, permissions, approvals and audit trail — so the second one you take works like the first from day one.
Document Processing
Bills and invoices from the moment they arrive to the moment the figures are in your books.
-
Arrives any way it likesWhatsApp, phone camera, or PDF, DOC, JPG and PNG uploaded singly or in bulk.
-
Read on our own hardwareOCR paired with a vision model we host ourselves. Your documents are never sent to a third-party AI API.
-
Checked before a person sees itTotals re-computed, GST split verified, and each invoice matched against its purchase order and goods-receipt note.
-
Validated against your real ledgersVendors, items and ledgers checked against what is actually in TallyPrime or Zoho Books — not a copy that has drifted.
-
Scored for tamperingEvery document is checked for signs of alteration and given an authenticity score, so an edited PDF does not pass as an original.
Real Estate & Agreements
Every paper attached to a property, and every contract attached to a counterparty.
-
Filed against the propertyDeeds, leases, tax receipts and utility bills sit under the property they belong to, not in a folder named after a year.
-
Somebody is responsible for itA named custodian and a physical location on every record, so "who has the original" has an answer.
-
Originals and copies are different thingsMarked as such, because one of them is the one that matters when a dispute starts.
-
Dates surface before they biteLease ends, renewal windows and rent revisions, raised while there is still time to act on them.
Insurance & Licences
The cover you are paying for and the permissions you trade under — both with a date that matters.
-
One record per policyCover, premium, insurer, period and the document itself — rather than a PDF somebody emailed last March.
-
Claims kept with the policyWhat was claimed, when, and where it got to. Visible to whoever picks it up next.
-
Licences by entityRegistrations and permissions held per company, so a group knows which arm is covered for what.
-
Renewals chased, not rememberedAlerts at 90, 60, 30 and 7 days out, to a named person with a deadline — and escalated if they are ignored.
Tasks
How the work gets run — assigned, broken up, chased and closed. Including the work you hand to a client.
-
Three organisations on every taskWho raised it, who is doing it, and who it is for — so a firm can assign work into a client's organisation and still own the outcome.
-
The document-request loopRaise a checklist against the client. They upload against each item, it moves to review, and you accept it or send it back with a reason.
-
Sub-tasks with a parent that closes itselfEach piece has its own assignee and date; the job above completes when the last one does.
-
Recurring and scheduled workDaily through yearly, with an end date and the next instance raised automatically. Scheduled tasks start on a future date rather than nagging from today.
-
Comments, attachments and emailsA thread per task with files attached, and the assignee emailed as soon as one arrives. Documents already in PaperBridge can be linked rather than re-uploaded.
-
Bulk reassignmentWhen somebody leaves or goes on leave, move their whole open workload at once instead of task by task.
Compliance
The statutory calendar, discovered rather than typed — and traceable back to where each date came from.
-
Scheduled discovery runsIt goes and collects what is due across GST, TDS/TCS and income tax on a schedule you set — and you can trigger a run by hand whenever you want one.
-
Every date cites its sourceThe name and URL of the page it was found on is stored with the deadline, so it can be checked rather than taken on trust.
-
A run you can readEach run records what it found, from which sources, and whether any of them failed — so a quiet month is distinguishable from a broken fetch.
-
One click to make it workConvert a deadline into a task and it inherits an owner, a date and the chasing — this is the seam between the two modules.
-
Your own activities alongsideObligations particular to your business, kept next to the ones that were discovered rather than in a separate list.
-
Per entity, with alerts and exportEach company's own obligations, flagged at 90, 60, 30 and 7 days, escalated when ignored, and exportable for a client pack.
Timesheets
Where the hours went, recorded by the people who spent them.
-
Clock in from the phoneWith location captured on mobile, so a site visit is recorded as a site visit.
-
Time against your own work typesYou define them — bank entries, returns, site visits — and each department sees only its own.
-
Approved, not just collectedA day is submitted, reviewed and signed off, with unallocated time and gaps flagged.
-
Exports that reconcileTeam views and reports you can take to a client, a payroll run or an audit.
The parts you would otherwise build five times.
Every module inherits these. Set them up once and they apply everywhere.
Approval chains you draw
Stages, branches and conditions in a drag-and-drop builder — matching your real chain of command, not a vendor's idea of one.
Maker and checker
As many review and sign-off stages as a document genuinely needs, with correction in place during review.
Roles scoped properly
Submitter, reviewer, auditor and admin — per organisation and per department, so people see their own work and no more.
Many entities, one account
Group companies, branches and departments under one tenant. Built for CA and consulting firms running many clients at once.
Master data worth reusing
One canonical list of vendors, items and ledgers, shared across every entity instead of re-entered per company.
Rules you write yourself
Author decisions over what was extracted and what was found — approve, hold, flag or route, without asking us to code it.
Reminders that reach people
Email, daily digests and WhatsApp. Before a due date and after it, to reviewers, custodians and assignees.
An audit trail that holds up
Every upload, edit, approval and sync recorded — who did it, when, and what the value was before.
Payables and receivables
AP and AR as one flow — source to pay — with GST input credit checked and validated along the way.
Exports that leave the building
Excel and ZIP exports of records and their documents, for an auditor, a client or a system that is not ours.
Search across all of it
Find a document and its extracted data in seconds, whichever module it came in through.
It feeds the systems you already keep.
PaperBridge is not another place to re-key things. Approved data leaves it and lands where your accounts actually live.
-
TallyPrimeThrough an agent that runs on your own machine — Tally does not have to be exposed to the internet.
-
Zoho BooksApproved documents posted across, with the GSTIN and tax detail already validated.
-
WhatsAppAs a way in for vendors and site staff who will never log into anything.
-
Your own storageChoose where documents are kept and archived, and on what terms.
See PaperBridge on your documents.
Thirty minutes on your own files. If a module is not right for you we will say so on the call.
