Expense and receipt mgmt - Is there an app for that?

Kim Thomas
Posted

Starting on my second flip next week.

Did a not-so-great job of keeping up with receipts and expenses on my first flip and it made things difficult in the end to fully asses. 

I think what Im looking for is an app that allows me to take a photo or screen shot of a receipt and then uses OCR to extract information.

The result would be a list of items on the receipt and the price paid for each.

I would then, presumably later in the day or week, assign a category to each item (ex. paint, drywall, appliances, cabinets, labor) and maybe even a sub category (bedroom 1, bathroom 1, kitchen, etc). 

I’d be able to open the app, click on categories and see where we stand in the budget.

In the end, I could have the app create a spreadsheet to show a summary or a detailed report and be able to save it to my drive and/or email it. 

Would be fantastic if I could also click on an individual item and it would pull up the receipt/screenshot. 

Does such a beast exist? Is there an app for that? Free would be great, but I’m willing to drop some cash on it. 

Thanks for any suggestions or thoughts!
