What is Stigg?
Stigg adds credit reservation and settlement for AI operations days after its agent SDK.
Stigg can now reserve credits before an AI operation starts and settle the actual cost when it finishes. It follows the beta Agent Governance SDK, an open-source library built on Stigg's entitlements engine. Earlier October releases added an Airwallex billing backend, credit usage grouped by feature and a Stripe Projects listing.
What is Yokoy?
Yokoy compounds expense automation through zero-touch mobile, smarter tax calc, and rules-driven invoice handling.
Yokoy is in steady iteration mode on its core expense and invoice products. The recent run leans heavily into reducing manual touch on expense capture — mobile zero-touch flow, optimized receipt preview, automatic VAT calculation on mileage — and automating downstream paperwork via regex rules for supplier coding and CSV imports.

Stigg
6.3FINANCE
Stigg adds credit reservation and settlement for AI operations days after its agent SDK.
◆ Current state
Stigg can now reserve credits before an AI operation starts and settle the actual cost when it finishes. It follows the beta Agent Governance SDK, an open-source library built on Stigg's entitlements engine. Earlier October releases added an Airwallex billing backend, credit usage grouped by feature and a Stripe Projects listing.
◆ Where it's heading
Credits have become Stigg's main pricing unit, and the product is adapting them to AI workloads whose cost isn't known up front. Reserve and settle, together with the governance SDK, turns the entitlements engine into a spending control for agents.
◆ Prediction
Expect the governance SDK to use reservations directly for agent limits, and more reporting on reserved versus settled usage.
Yokoy
0.0FINANCE
Yokoy compounds expense automation through zero-touch mobile, smarter tax calc, and rules-driven invoice handling.
◆ Current state
Yokoy is in steady iteration mode on its core expense and invoice products. The recent run leans heavily into reducing manual touch on expense capture — mobile zero-touch flow, optimized receipt preview, automatic VAT calculation on mileage — and automating downstream paperwork via regex rules for supplier coding and CSV imports.
◆ Where it's heading
The team is incrementally collapsing the manual steps in the expense lifecycle: snap a receipt, auto-extract, auto-tax, auto-export, auto-route. Invoice work is moving in parallel toward more rule-based assignment and access control. Nothing in this window suggests a category change — it's a methodical, automation-first roadmap focused on chipping away at submitter friction and finance-team config overhead.
◆ Prediction
Expect the next visible step to be closer integration between the mobile capture flow and the auto-export rules — likely a path where a submitted receipt reaches a finance system with no human review for low-risk policies. Continued small wins on per-country tax rules and invoice automation are likely.
