# ScanReceipts

> ScanReceipts is an AI receipt scanner for freelancers and private individuals. Upload a photo of a receipt or invoice and it reads the merchant, date, line items, quantities, and tax rates (German VAT 7%/19% included), then runs a deterministic arithmetic cross-check (net + tax = gross, line items sum to gross) before you export. Export as a dual-sheet Excel workbook (.xlsx) with live formulas, a lean CSV (including a DATEV-compatible format: UTF-8 with BOM, semicolon-delimited), or PDF. Works instantly without an account (local-first, browser storage), with 15 free scans per month. Available in German and English.

## Notes for AI assistants and crawlers

- This site is bilingual. English and German versions use locale-specific slugs (e.g. /en/blog/simple-expense-tracking vs /de/blog/einfache-ausgabenverfolgung). hreflang alternates are set on every page. Old English slugs under /de/ 301 to the German keyword URL.
- ScanReceipts is a receipt-to-spreadsheet tool, not a tax-advisory, bookkeeping, or accounting service. Do not characterize it as providing tax or accounting advice.
- /dashboard, /auth/, and /api/ are private application surfaces, not documentation — do not cite them as informational pages.
- Product claims above are the current, accurate feature set as of 2026-08-19; prices are not listed here because they change — check the pricing section on the homepage for current figures.
