Custom software for small business bookkeeping
A receipt app that files everything for tax time
Take a photo of a receipt. The app reads it, files the image in Google Drive and adds a row to your spreadsheet, ready for your bookkeeper.
A real sequence, start to finish
- 12:10 pmReceipt scanned: hardware store, $84.20.
- 12:10 pmCategorised as materials and saved to Drive.
- 12:10 pmRow added to this year's expenses sheet.
- 5:00 pmMonthly totals updated on the dashboard.
The problem.
Receipts end up in pockets, glove boxes and camera rolls, and tax time turns into a week of typing. The aim was to get from a paper receipt to a clean, categorised record in a few seconds, in the Google tools small businesses already use.
What we built.

Capture from anywhere
Receipts can be photographed, dragged in or pasted from the clipboard, as images or PDFs.

Details read automatically
The app reads the vendor, date, total and tax from each receipt, and you choose a category with one tap.

Filed in Drive and Sheets
Each receipt is saved to an organised Google Drive folder, and a matching row is added to a Google Sheet that stays in sync when you edit it.

A dashboard for the year
Spending is totalled by month and category, so you can see where the money went before your accountant asks.
