Ivalua IVA and IVA Studio (single source-to-pay AI agent with skills and sub-agents)

What it does

Ivalua launched IVA Studio on June 11, 2026, describing IVA as 'the first complete Source-to-Pay agent'. Instead of a catalogue of separate agents, IVA uses the whole Ivalua S2P application as its knowledge source and toolset, assembles skills and tools for each task, and creates temporary sub-agents for complex work. Examples Ivalua gives: a category manager asks IVA to pull an expiring contract, benchmark it, identify stronger suppliers, set up an RFx and launch the event; AP teams have IVA validate invoices against contract terms, not just price and PO; and a supplier risk event can trigger IVA to surface affected contracts, open a PO, create a mitigation plan and propose alternative suppliers. IVA runs on demand, inside workflows or in the background. Governance is enforced at platform level: IVA inherits the permissions of the user who invokes it and cannot exceed them, an accountable user is kept for autonomous runs, human-in-the-loop controls are maintained, and every action is logged. IVA Studio manages IVA's skills (built through chat in Skill Builder), permissions, tools and MCP integrations. Pricing is not published.
