Cleo
“Can a supply chain EDI and integration platform become the financial OS for B2B supplier-buyer relationships by embedding invoice financing and payment automation directly into its orchestration layer?”
Cleo is a long-standing B2B supply chain integration and EDI platform serving 4,000+ customers worldwide under the Cleo Integration Cloud (CIC) brand. Historically focused on EDI, API, and non-EDI supply chain transaction automation, the company has expanded into embedded finance with the October 2025 launch of Cleo InvoicePay — an invoice financing solution underpinned by Kanmon — targeting the cash flow gap suppliers face from extended payment terms. The Paystand partnership further positions Cleo as a supply chain fintech layer, embedding order-to-cash payment automation alongside its core integration infrastructure.
