AI Invoice Recognition

Invoice OCR

Beyond OCR — turn invoices into structured accounting data your team can review with confidence. Extract key fields, send uncertainty to review, and keep every number traceable to the source document.

Document types and data extraction

Receipt OCR

Receipt OCR is most useful when it becomes structured, reviewable data. Bookkeeping AI handles common accounting documents (invoices, receipts, bills, credit notes), extracts the fields that matter, and keeps the original file (image or PDF) attached for verification.

Invoices, receipts, bills

Process common formats: photos, scans, and PDFs. Keep everything in one review queue so documents don’t get lost across email threads and folders.

Key fields, structured

Capture details such as vendor, date, invoice number, totals, tax amounts, and payment terms — so bookkeeping entries start from clean inputs.

Beyond plain OCR

Classic OCR turns images into text. Document understanding goes further: it identifies the right fields in context, keeps the source document attached, and supports a clean review workflow.

Multiple upload channels

OCR Invoice Processing

Uploading is just step one. A solid intake workflow keeps the process consistent: documents arrive, fields are extracted, exceptions go to review, and drafts move forward with clear next steps.

Mobile upload

Capture a receipt or invoice when you receive it, not weeks later. The item lands in the same review queue as everything else.

Email or WhatsApp forwarding

Forward attachments from a shared inbox — or send documents via WhatsApp/chat — to keep intake simple for the whole team, while maintaining a single workflow for review and approvals.

Bulk upload

Bring in a batch of documents and review them efficiently. Useful for catch‑up work or when you’re rolling out a new workflow.

One review queue

No matter how documents arrive, the steps stay consistent: extract → validate → review exceptions → create drafts. That consistency is what keeps books cleaner.

Accuracy and validation

OCR Invoice Scanning

OCR invoice scanning isn’t set‑and‑forget. Scan quality varies, layouts differ, and some fields are ambiguous. That’s why Bookkeeping AI is built for review: confidence signals, practical validations, and fast corrections — so accuracy improves without slowing your team down.

Confidence signals

See which fields are clear and which need attention, so you review only what’s uncertain.

Practical validation

Catch common issues like missing totals or mismatched tax fields before drafts are created.

Fast corrections

Approve, edit, or request clarification quickly, with the source document visible alongside extracted fields.

Learns from edits

Your corrections help the workflow improve over time, especially for recurring vendors and repeated layouts.

Automatic draft creation

Invoice Line Item OCR

Line‑item extraction is where invoice capture becomes especially useful for accounting workflows. Instead of a single total, you can capture item‑level details (when available) and turn documents into structured drafts — ready for review and posting.

Expense drafts

Create draft expenses from receipts and bills with the core fields prefilled — so review is faster and consistency improves.

Bills & invoices

Turn incoming documents into reviewable drafts that your team can approve, correct, and keep linked to the original file.

Line items

Extract line descriptions, quantities, and prices when available — so you can allocate costs with more detail when your workflow needs it.

Structured entries

When your workflow needs it, convert extracted data into structured entries that your accounting team can review before posting.

Learning from vendor patterns

Extraction improves as Bookkeeping AI learns your real patterns: recurring vendors, repeated invoice layouts, and your coding conventions. Your corrections feed back into the workflow, so routine intake becomes smoother over time.

Vendor templates

Recognize repeated layouts and keep extraction consistent across invoices from the same supplier.

Recurring patterns

Identify repeat purchases and recurring charges so review becomes lighter and categorization stays consistent.

Team conventions

Your team's approvals and edits become part of the workflow, helping future intake follow the same standards.

Connected to reconciliation and reporting

Invoice capture becomes valuable when it stays connected to the workflow. When documents are structured and attached to the right activity, reconciliation is easier and reporting becomes more trustworthy — because the supporting evidence is already organized.

Cleaner reconciliation

Match documents to transactions with stronger context. That reduces "mystery items" and makes exceptions easier to resolve.

Better reporting inputs

When documents are captured early and reviewed consistently, reporting becomes less about fixing data and more about using it confidently.
