Detect duplicate and split expense charges for review
Scans the latest Stripe charges for duplicate submissions and amounts split to stay under approval limits, logs the suspected pairs to Notion.

What it does
Looks for two common expense problems: the same charge submitted twice, and a large purchase split into several smaller charges to slip under a per-transaction approval ceiling. It clusters charges by merchant, amount, and time window, flags suspicious groupings, and stages them for an approver rather than auto-rejecting.
When to use it
Use this to catch accidental double-submissions and deliberate threshold-gaming before reimbursement. Useful for finance teams that have a single-charge approval limit and want a safety net against split spending.
How it works
- 1A schedule starts the scan.
- 2Fetch recent charges from Stripe over the lookback window.
- 3A logic step clusters charges by merchant and timeframe, marking exact duplicates and clusters that together exceed a limit while individually staying under it.
- 4Each suspected case is written to a Notion database with the linked charges and a flag type.
- 5Gmail sends the approver one email listing every cluster to confirm or dismiss.
