AP Copilot & Payment Economics

Payment Economics didn't exist as a discipline until we created it. The pattern emerged from conversations with AP Copilot CEO Dan Hughes, recognizing that enterprises were treating payments as administrative overhead rather than strategic opportunity.

From that insight came The Payment Economics Journal, a 38,000-word foundational book, and a framework now being adopted by Fortune 500 treasury teams.

"Payment Economics was always there in the patterns we saw across enterprises. We gave it a name, a framework, and a home."

AP Copilot

Why AP Copilot Owns Payment Economics

How AP Copilot became the voice of Payment Economics.

The Thesis

Payment Economics changes how enterprises think about payments, moving them from cost center to strategic asset.

For decades, accounts payable has been treated as a back-office function. Pay the invoice. Move on. But inside every payment decision is an economic opportunity: early payment discounts, dynamic discounting, supply chain financing, working capital optimization.

AP Copilot recognized this pattern and partnered with Clear Paths Growth to build the category infrastructure. The result is Payment Economics: a discipline with its own journal, framework (Payment Yield = Capital Return × Supplier Acceptance), certification curriculum, and growing community of practitioners.

This isn't thought leadership as marketing. It's category creation as strategy. AP Copilot doesn't compete for market share in accounts payable automation; they define what the market should be measuring in the first place.

Daniel Jasinski

Over a decade driving growth for B2B technology through direct communication with the practitioners who use it. Understanding how to share new ideas with people in a relevant and enjoyable manner. That's the foundation of everything we build.

I created Payment Economics as a discipline because I kept seeing the same pattern: brilliant technology that the market didn't have language for. Category creation is the bridge between what you've built and the market that needs it.

Working with companies and executives who see something others miss and need help making the market see it too.
