AI Receipt Scanning

Turn any receipt into a digital record in under 5 seconds with our AI-powered scanner. It achieves 99% accuracy and lets you quickly make adjustments before saving.

What You Can Scan

The scanner isn't limited to paper. You can use:

• Photos of printed or handwritten receipts
• Screenshots of digital receipts and email invoices
• Image files in common formats (JPG, PNG)
• PDFs of receipts or invoices

It also handles faded thermal paper, wrinkled receipts, and poor lighting — and supports multi-currency for international purchases.

As a rule of thumb, if you can read the receipt in the image, Argo Books can too.

How It Works

1. Take a photo of your receipt with your phone or upload an image or PDF
2. Our AI analyzes the receipt and extracts all relevant information
3. Review the extracted data and make any corrections
4. Save to automatically create a categorized expense record

What Gets Extracted

The AI automatically identifies and extracts:

• Vendor Name: The business name from the receipt
• Date: Transaction date
• Line Items: Individual items with quantities and prices
• Subtotal, Tax, & Total: All totals are captured
• Payment Method: If shown on the receipt

Tips for Best Results

• Good Lighting: Ensure the receipt is well-lit without shadows
• Full Frame: Capture the entire receipt in the photo
• Flat Surface: Place the receipt on a flat surface to avoid distortion
• Clear Focus: Make sure the text is sharp and readable

Privacy

AI processing uses a secure API call to extract the data, but your receipt images and all extracted information are stored locally on your computer. No receipt data is kept on third-party servers after processing.
