Drop in a picture of any receipt or invoice — messy, creased or photographed at an angle. Get back clean, structured text ready to copy or send to your app.

STEP 01

Upload the photo

Drag in a picture from your phone or computer, or send it straight from your app.

UNDER THE HOOD

Built for messy, real documents

Not a demo that only works on clean sample images — a pipeline designed for the documents people actually upload.

Accurate text recognition

Reads real photos — folded, faded, at an angle — not just flat scans.

Smart field extraction

Totals, dates and items — separated and ready to use, not one long string.

FAQ

Questions, answered

Everything you need to know before you send us your first document.

Our pipeline is tuned specifically for receipts and invoices — creased paper, faded thermal print, handwritten totals and photos taken at an angle. On real-world documents we consistently hit 98%+ field-level accuracy, and every response includes a confidence score so you can flag anything that needs a second look.
JPG, PNG and PDF, including multi-page PDFs and photos taken straight from a phone camera. There's no need to crop, straighten or clean up the image first — just upload it as-is and let the model handle the rest.
Yes. ScanTo reads printed and handwritten text in over 30 languages, including mixed-language documents — for example a Cyrillic merchant name next to Latin-script totals — and normalizes dates, currencies and number formats automatically.
Every upload is encrypted in transit and at rest. Documents are processed and then removed from our servers after a configurable retention window (30 days by default) unless you choose to keep them for audit purposes. We never use your documents to train models, and we never share your data with third parties.
Every plan, including the free tier, includes full REST API access. Send an image, get structured JSON back in about a second. We also provide webhook notifications so you can trigger downstream workflows the moment a document finishes processing.
We'll notify you at 80% and 100% of your plan's limit. You can upgrade instantly or buy a one-off top-up of extra documents — processing never stops mid-month, and nothing you've already uploaded gets deleted.
Yes — there's no lock-in contract. Upgrade, downgrade or cancel from your dashboard whenever you like, and changes take effect immediately with prorated billing.
