AutoEntry vs Easy Expense

AutoEntry captures information from receipts, invoices, bank statements and other financial documents for accountants, bookkeepers and businesses. Users can photograph, scan, upload or email documents, then categorise extracted data and publish it to accounting software. Its OCR and machine-learning extraction is described by the maker as up to 99% accurate; the system can also suggest VAT codes and supplier accounts based on prior use. Listed integrations include Xero, Sage, QuickBooks, FreeAgent, KashFlow, SortMyBooks, ClearBooks, AccountsIQ, MYOB AccountRight, ReckonOne, FuseMetrix and exact. The iOS and Android apps handle invoice and receipt uploads, manual and mileage expenses, and expense reports. Bank and supplier statements and file-management folders require the web app. AutoEntry runs on Android, iOS, web and Windows. Plans start at $13 a month, billed monthly and excluding VAT, for 50 credits and unlimited users; unused credits can be kept for up to 90 days. A free trial is available, but there is no free plan.

Easy Expense provides receipt and expense tracking for individuals, small business owners, self-employed people, and teams.

Linked bank accounts and credit cards can be scanned to classify tax deductions. Easy Expense provides PDF expense reports and exports data to CSV or Excel.
