Photograph a receipt and Alcheta reads the merchant, the date, the totals, the VAT and every line on it. You check it once, and it is ready for your records or your accountant - in your currency, in your language.
A profile is a set of books. Which kind you choose decides who may put receipts into it, who may see them, and what happens to them afterwards.
Your receipts, your books. Nobody else is in them: you photograph, you check, you keep. Ten scans are free when you start, and after that each reading costs one credit.
The people who spend the money photograph their own receipts, and one person keeps the overview. The company's identity travels with every export, and approved receipts can go straight into your accounting.
One email address can hold a private profile and a company profile at the same time, and the app switches between them without signing out. A lunch on your own card stays in your books; the same lunch on the company card stays in the company's.
| Private | Company | |
|---|---|---|
| Who adds receipts | You | You and the staff you have approved |
| Who can read them | Only you | The company's administrators, and an accountant you invite |
| Approval | You approve your own | An administrator approves what staff submit |
| Company identity on exports | Not applicable | Legal name and registration number |
| Accounting connection | Export files | Export files, or booking into bexio |
| What a scan costs | One credit, ten free to begin | By agreement - talk to us |
| Closing it | Delete it yourself, at any time | Closed by the company, so records survive a leaver |
Four steps, and only one of them is yours.
A till slip, an invoice, a PDF. A long receipt is photographed in overlapping parts and joined back together.
Merchant, date, total, VAT and every line, with the tax named the way the receipt names it.
Correct anything the paper disagrees with, switch off what should not count, and approve.
It counts in your totals, exports as PDF or Excel, and in a company profile can be booked into your accounting.
The everyday things, whichever books you are in.
A foreign receipt is converted to your own currency at the European Central Bank's published rate for the day it was issued, not today's.
Line items can be read in your language beside the original wording. The paper's own words remain the record.
Keep the invoice, the warranty or the report with the receipt it belongs to, instead of in another folder.
Any word on any receipt, including the ones you wrote yourself, and it still works without a connection.
PDF or Excel, with the figures as printed and the conversion shown beside them, ready for whoever does your books.
The Android app is available now. The iPhone app is in closed beta; write to us and we will send an invitation.
A receipt is a record of where you were and what you bought, so it is treated as one.
Photographs are encrypted on our servers under a key tied to your account. Someone with disk access sees ciphertext.
Deleting the account destroys the key that unlocks your photographs, which makes them permanently unrecoverable.
The model that reads a receipt runs on infrastructure we operate. We do not sell your data to anyone.
