Receipts you need to type manually

AI that reads receipts like a human — but faster

Our receipt scanner uses advanced optical character recognition (OCR) combined with a large language model (LLM) to understand your receipts contextually — not just reading characters, but understanding what they mean. It can handle faded thermal paper, and even read handwritten amounts.

After scanning, Argo Books structures the data into clean, organized fields: vendor, date, individual items, quantities, prices, subtotal, tax, and total. You review the results, make any corrections, and save — all in a few seconds.

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

  • OCR + LLM for a deeper understanding
  • Handles faded thermal paper, wrinkled receipts, and poor lighting
  • Multi-currency support for international purchases
  • Review and edit before saving — you're always in control
