Unclear or conflicting statements

Where the sources are unclear or disagree, both statements are shown with their links.

Unclear: what the MCP Server passes to outside AI tools

Statement A

AI page: the MCP Connector connects AR data to Anthropic's Claude and Microsoft's Copilot and pulls live data directly from the Billtrust platform.

billtrust.com/ai
Your AR data inside Claude and Copilot

Statement B

MCP Server page: AI providers never see raw customer data; they receive structured responses, not raw financial data.

billtrust.com/ai/mcp-server
Enterprise-grade MCP security; FAQ: Is our financial data secure when it goes through an AI tool?

Not a contradiction: "live" data is not necessarily "raw" data. The pages do not define raw data or say whether the structured responses include customer or personal data. Recorded as unclear under D-143; not resolved.

Unresolved · Both statements are published as found; CoE draws no inference about which governs.

Questions to ask

For this offering

  • What exactly does the MCP Server send to Copilot or Claude for a query, does it include customer names or personal data, and under whose terms is it processed?
  • When write capability arrives, which actions will AI tools be able to take in Billtrust, and can we keep the connector read-only?
  • Which models power Insights360 and Agentic Email, and does the network data that trains them include our customers' payment behavior?
  • Does Billtrust's SOC 1 or SOC 2 report cover Insights360, Agentic Email and the MCP Server?
  • Are drafted collection emails ever sent without a collector's approval?

From the diligence question set

  1. DQ-02 Which AI features depend on models, data or services from third parties, and how do you assess and monitor those providers?
  2. DQ-10 What data does each feature read, from which modules, documents or outside sources, and what data can it not see?
  3. DQ-16 Is our data, including inputs, outputs, documents and corrections, used to train or improve any model, yours or a third party's? Is that off by default, and is the commitment in the contract?
  4. DQ-17 How long are prompts, outputs and logs kept, where are they stored and processed, and can we have them deleted?
  5. DQ-13 What does the system record for each AI output or action, and can we export and keep those records for as long as we need them?
  6. DQ-14 Does your service auditor's report cover the AI features we would use, for what period, and which controls does it expect us to operate?
