OCR Receipt vs Starlog

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.

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.
