Receipt Wrangler

Receipt Wrangler is a multi-platform receipt management suite provided as a single monorepo. It includes a backend API plus desktop and mobile clients for capturing, extracting, indexing, and organizing receipts and expense documents.

Key Features

• Monorepo containing a backend API and native clients for desktop and mobile to provide a consistent stack and integrations
• Receipt capture via image or PDF import with automated text extraction for indexing
• Metadata parsing and organization (vendor, date, totals, tags) to speed categorization and search
• Searchable, indexed receipt archive with full-text search across extracted receipt content
• REST API for integrations, synchronisation, and programmatic access from other tools
• Cross-platform mobile client built with Dart/Flutter and desktop/client components implemented in TypeScript
• Container-friendly development and deployment artifacts to simplify local and hosted setups

Use Cases

• Personal or small-business expense capture and recordkeeping with searchable receipt archives
• Archiving receipts and invoices for bookkeeping, tax preparation, or reimbursement workflows
• Integrating receipt ingestion and metadata into accounting or expense management systems via the API

Limitations and Considerations

• OCR and text-extraction quality depends on the chosen OCR engine and input image quality; multi-language support may vary
• Setup and development require familiarity with TypeScript/Node and Dart/Flutter, and may rely on Docker for deployment
• Feature completeness and polishing of mobile/desktop clients depend on the repository's current maturity and contributions

Receipt Wrangler is suited for users who want a self-hostable receipt ingestion and management solution with API access and cross-platform clients. Its monorepo design centralizes components for easier development and integration.
