## Source summary

Boost Payment Solutions CEO Dean Leavitt told PYMNTS that AI is most useful around B2B payment workflows: matching invoices, applying buyer-supplier terms, routing approvals and handling exceptions. Boost is using multiple agents in some workflows, with one checking another and humans still reviewing; Leavitt says agents are more likely to execute bounded rules before they negotiate commercial relationships.

## Why it matters

Cross-border B2B payments combine money movement with invoices, FX, contractual terms and compliance across jurisdictions, so agent controls must preserve authorization, reconciliation and auditability rather than only increase speed. This is an executive interview about an early operating approach, with no verified production scale, error-rate reduction or customer outcome disclosed.
