What it does

A receipt workflow that stays out of your way

From the first snap to a finished expense report, every step happens on your phone.

Capture screen: PaperNest suggesting merchant, date, and total from a scanned receipt for the user to review
Capture

Snap a photo or import a PDF

On-device OCR reads the merchant, date, and total the moment you capture a receipt — you just review and confirm before it's saved.

Receipt library screen organized into custom groups such as work, travel, home, and projects
Organize

Group receipts your way

Create custom groups — work, travel, home, projects — and browse by group, year, or month whenever you need to find something.

Spending insights screen showing a spending total for a selected date range, filtered by group, with export buttons
Understand

Spending totals, on demand

Pick a date range and a group to see exactly what you spent — then export straight from the same screen.

Review

Export

CSV reports and ZIP exports

Export a CSV of your spending or a ZIP of the original receipt images — ready to hand off to a bookkeeper or attach to a return. Choose the scan mode that fits how you work.

Review before you save

OCR suggests the details; you always get the final say before anything is stored.

Browse by year and month

Your archive stays navigable even after hundreds of receipts pile up.

Import existing PDFs

Why it's built this way

Buy it once. Your receipts stay yours.

Most expense-tracking apps aimed at freelancers and small business owners are subscription SaaS: your data lives on their servers, and the meter keeps running every month whether you scan one receipt or a hundred. PaperNest takes the opposite approach — pay once, and every receipt image and every extracted detail is processed and stored locally on your device.

That means no server to breach, no monthly fee to track, and no dependency on a company staying in business for your records to remain accessible. It's a tool you own, not a service you rent.
