In their own words
Genius Scan
Genius Scan turns a phone into a document scanner, with access also offered through a web app. Its free Basic plan is fully functional, supports high-resolution scanning, and has no scan or document-count limit. Users can create multipage PDFs, archive documents, organize them with tags, and search for them. Ultra adds on-device OCR, which places searchable and indexable text in PDFs. Documents are processed and stored on the phone unless explicitly exported, and access can be protected with Face ID, Touch ID, or a PIN. Export options include Dropbox, Box, Google Drive, OneDrive, Evernote, WebDAV, FTP, and others. Genius Cloud offers unlimited cloud storage, backup, syncing, storage savings, and web access. Automatic export can run in the background and route documents according to rules. Ultra costs $39.99 a year. Team features include centralized license management and consolidated annual billing; a BAA is available with Genius Scan Team for organizations needing HIPAA-aligned handling. The maker, The Grizzly Labs, is based in Paris, France.
