AutoEntry vs OCR Receipt

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.

OCR Receipt is a desktop app for analyzing, renaming and filing receipts, invoices and business documents offline. It extracts supplier, date, tax, total and line-item details, can correct OCR typos and categorize suppliers, and indexes parsed files in a local SQLite database for text search. The product page describes dropping 50 receipts at once for background processing. Reports include PDF audit files with receipt copies appended, and the desktop tour describes HTML summaries. CSV export is available; paid tiers also include Excel export.

The site says OCR and local AI run on the computer, files remain on the local disk, and there is no telemetry or remote server sharing. Paid tiers can optionally use cloud AI with the customer's own API key. The app accepts PDF, PNG and JPG files, and supports Linux, Windows 10/11, and macOS on Intel and Apple Silicon. Free Lite costs nothing; paid one-time plans are listed at 149.00 USD, 199.00 USD and 399.00 USD, with differing batch and seat limits.
