24 alternatives to I built a receipt processor for Paperless-ngx

Hi all, I wanted a robust way to keep track of my receipts without needing to keep them in a box and so i found paperless - but the existing paperless ai projects didn't really convert my receipts to usable data. so I created a fork of nutlope's receipthero (actually it's a complete rewrite, the only thing that remains over is the system prompt) The goal of this project is to be a one stop shop for automatically detecting tagged docs and converting them to json using schema definitions - that includes invoices, .... i can't think of any others right now, maybe you can? If you do please make…

    Hi HN, I'm proud to show you that I've finally managed to create a Receipt-Image to JSON converter, including line-items! Over the past 10 years, I have periodically tried (every ~3 years or so) to convert Receipt-Images to JSON. What particularly interested me were the line-items. It began with a Bachelor's project where we wanted to track prices by extracting product prices from line items. However, it was not feasible to ask users to type them all into our platform. I quickly realized this process was way too tedious. Only when taking a picture is all that is required, would such a…

    Hey HN, As a freelancer, I found myself spending time every month manually opening PDF and Word invoices, copying the details into a spreadsheet, and tracking payments. It was tedious and error-prone. I decided to build a simple desktop app to automate this. It's a GUI built with Python and Tkinter that points to a folder of invoices, parses the key details (invoice #, amount, date), and stores everything in a local SQLite database for tracking and analysis. It's been quite a time- and headache-saver for me. A Note on Simplicity & Caveats I'm sharing this in case it's useful to any other…
