How AI Receipt Scanning Works
Snap a Photo or Upload Your Receipt
Use your phone camera to scan any paper receipt — even crumpled or faded ones. Upload PDFs, images, or screenshots from your computer. Forward email receipts to your dedicated SparkReceipt address, or connect your inbox for automatic capture. Handles receipts in any language and 190 currencies with automatic exchange rate conversion.
AI Reads and Categorizes Every Detail
SparkReceipt's AI extracts the vendor name, amount, date, tax breakdown, payment method, and line items from your receipt. No manual data entry needed. Expenses are automatically sorted into tax-relevant categories — meals, travel, office supplies, software subscriptions, and more. The AI learns your patterns and gets smarter over time.
Generate Tax-Ready Reports Instantly
Create clean expense reports in PDF, Excel, or CSV format with one click. Reports include totals, category breakdowns, tax summaries, and links to original receipt images. Sync directly with QuickBooks Online to eliminate double entry. Or invite your accountant or bookkeeper directly to your account at any time.
Scan any receipt, anywhere
SparkReceipt works on iPhone and Android. Snap a photo of any paper receipt and AI extracts the data in seconds — even from crumpled, faded, or poorly printed receipts.
Got email receipts? Connect your Gmail, Outlook, Microsoft, or any IMAP inbox and SparkReceipt finds and imports receipts automatically. It works backward too: email history extraction pulls receipts out of the mail you already have, as far back as you choose — paper goes forward, your inbox goes backward.
AI that actually understands your receipts
SparkReceipt's AI doesn't just scan — it reads. Every receipt is analyzed to extract the vendor name, total amount, date, tax breakdown, payment method, and individual line items. See how our receipt OCR turns each field into structured data.
Expenses are automatically categorized into tax-relevant groups: meals and entertainment, travel, office supplies, software, professional services, and more. The AI applies local tax rules based on your country and adapts to your spending patterns.
Beyond receipts: bank statement extraction
Upload PDF bank statements and automatically extract every transaction. AI categorizes each transaction and matches it against your scanned receipts — giving you a complete picture of your expenses without entering a single line of data manually.
