What AI adds to receipt scanning
Traditional scanning stops at reading text. AI adds understanding. It recognizes that "TOTAL", "AMOUNT DUE" and "BALANCE" usually mean the same thing, tells the store name apart from the address, and finds the date even when it is printed in an unusual format.
The result is a receipt record that is ready to use the moment you save it, not a block of raw text you still need to clean up.
What ScanReceipt extracts
- Merchant name: so you know where the money went.
- Purchase date: for accurate monthly and yearly views.
- Total amount: the number that matters for budgets and records.
- The original image: kept alongside the data for proof of purchase.
