FAQ

How accurate is it vs. the expensive APIs?

Same accuracy class on printed receipts and invoices — merchant, totals, tax and line items at 95%+ field accuracy on our benchmark set. Handwriting is best-effort.

What happens if I exceed my pages?

Overage is billed at $0.008/page — still 10x cheaper than incumbents. We warn you at 80% usage.

Do you store my receipts?

No. Files are processed in memory and deleted immediately. Available SOC 2 report on Scale plans.

Which languages are supported?

English, Spanish and Portuguese at launch, with more on the roadmap.
