AI Receipt Scanner App That Reads Every Line of a Receipt

Photograph a receipt and AI reads the shop, date, totals, tax and every line item.

In plain English

ReceiptGenie is a phone app that reads paper receipts. You take a photo and AI pulls out the shop name, date, total, tax and each item. Everything is saved and sorted so tracking spending or expenses is easy. The first scans are free, then users pay a subscription.
