# Proprietary Technology and Defensible Intellectual Property
Apxium’s Accounts Receivable Automation Software, combined with its Payments Technology, improves debtor days by up to 50%, reduces administrative overhead by 50%, and payment processing fees by 30%-40%. The technology is underpinned by the following Intellectual Property:
#### Remote Connectivity - Read & Write Access to Firms’ Practice Management Software (Accounting & Billing Systems)
* Remote read and write access to global cloud and on-premise Practice Management Software which is used by the largest Firms. These systems are not built for external cloud connectivity.
* SQL access enables data interrogation to create invoices and remotely write payments data (journaled) back into the Practice Management system ledger with no manual (human) intervention.
#### Real-Time Data Synchronisation
* External/manual transactions outside of Apxium’s payment gateway (refunds, credit notes, reversals etc.) are updated in Apxium invoices in real time, and reflected in cloud hosted merchant and client portals.
* This real-time synchronicity makes payment errors, duplicate payments, etc., impossible.
#### Bank Agnostic Payments Acquiring (Global Payment Rails)
* Apxium replaces the Firm’s transactional bank and provides bank-agnostic payment facilities for credit card and direct debit (ACH) at 30-40% savings.
* As an accredited Payments Acquirer, Apxium has visibility over every debtor/payer, enabling its write data integration IP to perform the most accurate and automated write-backs (journal entries) to the PM system.
This IP ensures the most sophisticated risk reporting with real-time visibility over every invoice payment status and debtor payment, along with every external transaction recorded in the underlying receivables ledger.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation by asking a question.
Perform an HTTP GET request on the following URL with the `ask` and `goal` query parameters:
```
GET https://docs.kasu.finance/how-kasu-works/lending-strategies-explained/professional-fee-funding-accounting-firms/proprietary-technology-and-defensible-intellectual-property.md?ask=&goal=
```
`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is what the user is ultimately trying to achieve, the reason they need the answer. Sharing it helps GitBook give you a better, more relevant answer. A goal is most helpful when it describes the outcome the user wants rather than restating the question. For example, with `ask=how do I create an API token`, a goal like `automate deployments from our CI pipeline` lets GitBook tailor the answer to that use case.
The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.
Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
