What is Receiptor?
Receiptor AI is an AI-powered software that automatically extracts, categorizes, and organizes receipts and invoices from email accounts, WhatsApp, and manual uploads. It connects to your inbox once and continuously scans for financial documents—receipts, invoices, bills, refunds, and order confirmations—without requiring manual forwarding or uploading. The AI analyzes document context to identify key information including date, vendor, amount, tax details, currency, and item descriptions, then automatically categorizes transactions based on actual purchase context rather than simple keywords.
Key features include retroactive extraction that scans years of email history to recover missed receipts, real-time processing for new emails, smart categorization with transaction context, multi-currency and multi-language support, auto-detection of subscriptions and recurring charges with cost projections, spending trend visualization by category, and business entity matching that distinguishes between similar companies (e.g., Company Inc. vs Company Ltd.). The platform offers audit-ready exports in CSV, PDF, and ZIP formats, integrates with accounting software (QuickBooks, Xero, Expensify), syncs with cloud storage (Google Drive, Dropbox), and supports workflow automation triggered by events or schedules.
Receiptor AI is designed for three main user groups: solopreneurs and small business owners who want to save 5+ hours weekly on bookkeeping and avoid scrambling at tax time, accountants and accounting firms who need to deliver cleaner books to clients with auto-categorized documents and better compliance, and anyone filing tax returns who wants to ensure they never miss a deduction. The platform has served 7,000+ businesses and emphasizes security with compliance to PCI DSS, SOC 2, ISO 27001, GDPR, and HIPAA frameworks.
The tool eliminates repetitive bookkeeping tasks by working in the background, keeping emails in your original inbox without moving, deleting, or modifying them. It provides instant spreadsheet generation with financial information, normalizes multi-currency receipts into consistent values for reporting, and offers API, MCP, and CLI access for advanced users. Team workflows are supported with role-based access (Admin, Member, Accountant, Guest) and workspace isolation for separate document management.

Frequently asked questions about Receiptor
Does Receiptor AI save my email messages in their database?
No, Receiptor AI does not save any message in their database. They only save message IDs to keep track of what message has been processed and which not. Your emails stay in your inbox—they never move, delete, or modify them.
Can Receiptor AI identify emails with receipt links or attachments?
Yes, Receiptor AI can identify emails containing receipts, attached receipts, or links to receipts and extract the information, saving you hours of manual searching in your inbox.
Does Receiptor AI work with past email history?
Absolutely! Receiptor AI can retroactively analyze your entire email history to identify and extract receipt information. You can scan emails from any year with no time limits, which is perfect for tax season or clearing backlogs.
What receipt details does Receiptor AI extract?
Receiptor AI extracts crucial receipt details such as purchase amounts, categories, dispute deadlines, date, vendor, amount, tax details, currency, and item descriptions. The AI understands document context to reliably extract and structure all key data regardless of layout, language, or currency.
Can I export reports in PDF format with Receiptor AI?
Yes, you can easily export reports in PDF format with Receiptor AI, simplifying your accounting and financial tracking processes. Export options include CSV, PDF, and ZIP formats, plus consolidation into structured folders.
Does Receiptor AI help with tax preparation?
Yes, Receiptor AI allows you to instantly generate a spreadsheet with all your necessary financial information, reducing the chances of missed deductions and saving you time on tax preparation. Most businesses save 5+ hours weekly.
Who is Receiptor AI designed for?
Receiptor AI is designed to benefit a wide range of users, including individuals filing tax returns, small business owners, and accountants. From solopreneurs to accounting firms, it consistently saves 5+ hours every week.
Does my subscription include scanning past emails?
No. Subscriptions process new emails from the moment you sign up. To scan past emails (your backlog), you'll need a separate one-time Retroactive Scan, priced per email. You can get a free quote to see your exact cost before purchasing.
Why are Ongoing Automation and Retroactive Scan sold separately?
Scanning years of past emails is a heavy, one-time job—they charge based on volume so you only pay for what you actually need. Ongoing monitoring is lighter and predictable, so it's a flat monthly fee. Most customers buy both: a one-time Retroactive Scan to clean up their backlog, then a subscription to stay caught up going forward.
Is Receiptor AI security compliant?
Yes, Receiptor AI has successfully completed a Cloud Application Security Assessment (CASA) and has been validated by the App Defense Alliance (ADA). This means Receiptor AI meets CASA TIER 2 requirements, ensuring a high level of security. They reference compliance frameworks including PCI DSS, SOC 2, ISO 27001, GDPR, and HIPAA, and security is part of how the product operates, not an afterpost.
