FAQ

Does it work on phone photos of receipts?

Yes. Photos, scans, and PDFs all go through the same pipeline. Cropping and deskew are automatic.

Crumpled or faded thermal receipts?

OCR handles most thermal receipts. Severely faded text returns null on the affected fields rather than guessing.

How is this priced?

Extraction is priced per page. The free tier covers the first 100 pages.
