A receipt today. A clear record when you need it.
Capture purchase evidence, review the extracted details and keep your expense records together. Receipt scanning helps with the paperwork; you decide what the purchase was for and whether it belongs in your tax records.
For Employees, independent workers and business owners.
The day finishes. The details stay.
For someone running a small clinic, equipment purchases are only one part of a full working day. Keep the receipt, its purpose and the amount together while the context is still fresh.
From a photo to a usable record
A receipt photo contains several different facts: the supplier, date, total, tax and individual items. TaxBot’s upload flow brings extracted details into a review form rather than asking you to retype everything. Check the photograph against each field, particularly faded dates, decimal points and multiple tax lines. A legible image and a complete receipt make that review much easier.
Keep context with the purchase
The receipt alone rarely explains why you bought something. A work phone might also be used personally; a hardware purchase might be for a client job or a weekend project. Add a useful description, review the category and record your own business-use allocation. TaxBot keeps these details with the record so you can return to the evidence instead of trying to remember it months later.
Find it again at reporting time
The receipts workspace brings saved records into a searchable list and lets you review or correct them. Use consistent merchant names and descriptions to make repeat purchases easier to identify. When you also import a bank statement, reconcile the payment against the receipt instead of counting the same expense twice. A saved record is evidence to review, not automatic approval of a deduction.
Before you begin
- A clear photo or supported receipt file
- The purchase purpose and reporting date
- Your own supported work-use percentage
- Any reimbursement or warranty details
A category or AI suggestion does not establish eligibility. Employee rules, reimbursements, capital purchases and local tax treatment can change the result.
Everyday examples
A nurse after a shift
Keeps a receipt for work equipment, adds why it was needed and checks the rules for their country before treating it as deductible.
A home-office employee
Separates personal and work use of a shared accessory instead of assuming the full purchase belongs in a claim.
A growing building business
Keeps material purchases and job descriptions together so its bookkeeper can trace the original evidence.

Questions
Does scanning automatically claim the expense?
No. Review the extraction, purpose, category and applicable rules. Saving a receipt does not lodge a return or certify a claim.
Can I correct a scanned amount?
Yes. Review the extracted fields before saving, and use the receipt workspace to revisit saved details when a correction is needed.
