About ScanRelief
ScanRelief is a desktop application that uses OpenAI to automate the processing of receipts and invoices by scanning a folder of image or PDF files, extracting key details like date, amount, and vendor name, renaming each file into a meaningful, chronologically sortable filename, and generating a comprehensive Excel report with all extracted receipt data. The tool supports JPEG, PNG, HEIC, and PDF formats, auto-rotates images, converts HEIC to JPEG when necessary, and downsizes images to meet API-upload limits. It processes files in batches in parallel, enabling users to analyze large volumes of receipts quickly while paying only for actual OpenAI-API usage. Files are processed locally and temporarily sent to OpenAI’s API, and ScanRelief asserts that data is not used for model training. Benefits include improved file-naming that makes receipts findable, simplified reconciliation with bank transactions or accounting records, and audit-ready reporting.
