Scancompta

Scancompta is an AI-powered expense tracker built for French entrepreneurs, freelancers, and small businesses. You take a photo of a receipt or a mileage log, and it automatically extracts the total amount, VAT, date, and expense category. At the end of the month, with one click, you send a CSV and all supporting photos directly to your accountant. No manual data entry required.

The tool works in three steps: photograph, AI extraction, and export. The AI processes receipts in about 3 seconds. It also handles mileage expenses — you enter the date and distance, and it calculates the cost based on your custom rate. Scancompta organizes expenses by client folder, which is handy if you work with multiple clients and need separate reports for each. It also detects duplicate receipts before export. Data is hosted in Europe and encrypted, and the tool complies with French tax record-keeping requirements (10 years for receipts). The free plan includes 5 scans per month; the Pro plan at €5.99/month gives unlimited scans and folders.

This tool is ideal for self-employed workers, artisans, and small business owners who want to skip manual expense tracking. Instead of sorting through a shoebox of receipts, you scan them as you go and send everything to your accountant in one bundle. The mileage calculator is a nice bonus for anyone who drives for work. It’s simple, focused, and does exactly what it promises without extra bells and whistles.
