Scanning Receipts with AI

Domara uses AI to read your receipts and automatically fill in expense details. Snap a photo, and the AI extracts the vendor name, amount, date, and suggests a category.

How to scan a receipt

1. Go to Bookkeeping
2. Click Scan Receipt
3. Upload a photo of the receipt (JPG, PNG, or PDF)
4. The AI processes the image and extracts:

- Vendor name (e.g., "Home Depot", "ABC Plumbing")

- Amount (total from the receipt)

- Date (purchase date)

- Suggested category (repairs, supplies, etc.)

1. Review the extracted data — correct anything the AI got wrong
2. Select the property this expense belongs to
3. Click Save

Tips

• Clear photos work best — make sure the receipt is flat, well-lit, and readable
• Always review — AI is accurate most of the time, but double-check the amount and category
• Faded receipts — thermal receipts fade over time, so scan them sooner rather than later
• Multiple items on one receipt? — if a single receipt covers expenses for different properties, you may want to split it into separate expense entries
