Foreceipt vs Starlog

Foreceipt tracks expenses for freelancers and small businesses by capturing receipts, categorizing transactions, and generating reports. Users can photograph paper receipts or forward digital receipts by email for processing, and scan invoices to record income. Expense categories include defined business categories for the U.S. and Canada, with options to customize them. Reports can be exported to Excel or PDF for an accountant or tax filing. Users can import bank transactions in bulk from PDF statements and CSV files, and set recurring instructions to generate expense or income records when due. The mobile app syncs with the web portal. Foreceipt is available on Android, iOS, and web. Its free plan includes up to 100 receipts kept for up to 12 months, two team members, up to two PDF bank statements, and up to 10 PDF/Excel reports. The Individual plan costs $5 a month and includes 200 receipts per month, retention for up to seven years, and unlimited PDF/Excel reports. The Business plan costs $12 a month and adds QuickBooks Online integration, unlimited monthly receipts, and email and phone support.

Starlog is a receipt scanner and expense tracker for small businesses, available on Android and iOS. It reads receipt details on the phone and uses OCR to fill in the store, amount and date. Users can group receipts into reports with category breakdowns, then export a ZIP containing XLSX data and receipt images. Starlog also describes structured voucher exports for direct import into Tally. Teammates can submit receipts for the owner to review and approve, without a per-seat fee. Receipt images go into year-and-month folders in the user's own Google Drive account. Starlog says it accesses only the Drive folder it creates for receipts, which users can disconnect in settings; it also says OCR runs on the phone, so images are not uploaded to a server for reading. The free plan covers one company with unlimited receipts for six months from the first receipt, then 30 approved receipts per month. Unlimited Receipts costs $1.99 a month for one company; multi-company plans and one-time receipt packs are also listed.
