Receipt scanning
Automatic text recognition turns a photo into structured, itemised data.
Grocery price intelligence
Stop guessing where your money goes.
Upload a photo of your receipt. We read every line item, total up what you actually spend each month, and show you how prices move on the things you buy again and again.

Your receipts, finally readable.
Every receipt you scan turns into itemised data you can actually use — where your money went this month, and what you're paying over time for the things you buy again and again.
Spend tracker
Every scanned receipt rolls up into a running monthly total, split by category. No manual entry, no guessing where the money went.
Price history
Buy the same milk every week and you'll see exactly what it has cost you each time — built from your own receipts, not an estimate.
How it works
Three steps, about ten seconds.
-
1
Snap the receipt
Point your camera at any printed receipt. Crumpled, faded, and angled shots are fine.
-
2
We read every line
Our scanner pulls out each item, quantity, and price, and matches them against what you've bought before.
-
3
See your spending clearly
Track where your money goes each month, and watch how prices move on the things you buy regularly.

A grocery list that lives in your pocket
Remember something you need on a Tuesday, add it in one tap, and carry the whole list with you to the shop. Because we already know what you buy, the regulars are waiting to be added — with the price you last paid, so the list totals itself before you leave the house.

FAQ
Questions, answered.
Can I download the app today?
Not yet. The iOS and Android apps are still in development and haven't been published to either store — the badges above mark them as upcoming, not available.
Does it cost anything?
Scanning receipts and tracking your spending is free. Placeholder copy — replace with your real pricing once decided.
Which stores does it work with?
Any store that prints a receipt — the scanner reads the paper, so it doesn't depend on a partnership. Comparing prices between stores is still in development.
What happens to my receipt photos?
They're stored against your account so you can search them later. Payment card details are never retained.
What if the scanner reads something wrong?
You can correct any line item yourself, and low-confidence reads are flagged for review before they affect prices.
