3 Ways to Capture Receipts & Invoices

Get your documents in — however it's easiest for you

Upload via App

Use the dashboard to snap a photo or upload any PDF or image file. Drag-and-drop or tap the Scan Receipt button. Supports JPG, PNG, HEIC, and PDF.

JPG / PNG / HEICPDFInstant AI scan

Google Drive Sync

Connect a Drive folder and we'll scan every receipt or invoice file you drop in. Files already in your Drive sync automatically on connection.

Auto-syncAny Drive folderPDF / images

Email Capture

Manually forward individual receipt or invoice emails to your unique address, or connect Gmail for automatic keyword-based scanning. Your other mail is never read.

Keyword-filteredSet date rangeAttachments extracted

Privacy first: Only emails with subject or body matching receipt/invoice keywords are scanned. You set the date range. We never access unrelated emails.

AI extraction may occasionally miss or misread fields — always review extracted data before submitting to the CRA.

Everything You Need at Tax Time

For self-employed, freelancers, and small business owners — with Canadian tax features built in

AI Receipt Scanning

Upload any receipt — photo, PDF, or scanned image. Our AI extracts vendor name, date, amounts, and HST/GST registration number in seconds.

Auto HST/GST Tracking

Provincial tax rates applied automatically. ITC (Input Tax Credit) eligibility tracked per receipt. HST return calculations done for you.

CRA Tax Categorization

Every expense mapped to the correct T2125 line. Three-level categorization: Tax Category, Category, and Subcategory. 69+ built-in CRA categories.

Track Your Deductions

Surface deductions you might otherwise miss. AI identifies deductible percentages (50% for meals, business-use % for vehicle and home office) so you can claim what you're entitled to.

CCA & Depreciation

Capital Cost Allowance calculated automatically across 13+ asset classes. Half-year rule applied. UCC balances tracked year-over-year.

T2125-Ready Reports

One-click tax reports mapped to CRA form lines. T2125 for sole proprietors, partnership allocations, and CCPC financial statements.

Invoicing for Any Country

Create and send professional invoices to clients anywhere — bill in your currency or theirs (CAD, USD, GBP, EUR, and more). Canadian invoices get province-correct GST/HST automatically; for other countries, pick a tax preset or set your own rate.

Get Paid & Auto-Receipts

Track every invoice as Draft, Outstanding, Overdue, or Paid. Mark one paid and it posts to your books as revenue and emails the client a receipt automatically — no extra step.

Stop Typing. Start Scanning.
