Receipt Scanner
Scan Receipts by Photo. No App to Install.
Send a receipt photo to @vustReceiptBot and get merchant, date, total with currency, category and items count. Your first 10 successful scans each UTC month are free; later accepted photos debit Balance when sent, without a separate confirmation step. /month keeps a running total.
Honest scope
A scan to verify, not a filed accounting record
Every scan carries the same line: this is an AI extraction, verify important amounts, not accounting or tax advice. It's built for turning a photo into structured fields fast — merchant, total, category — not for producing a document that needs to be exact for a tax authority.
See the difference
One photo, structured fields back — free 10 scans a month.

Honest scope — extraction, not filed accounting
AI extraction only
Every scan carries the same disclaimer: verify important amounts, not accounting or tax advice.
Photos aren't stored
Only the compact summary is kept — no photo bytes, no itemized line lists.
Failed paid extractions are refunded
A rejected non-receipt or failed extraction does not keep a paid debit.
Frequently asked questions
How do I scan a receipt with this?
Open @vustReceiptBot in Telegram and send a photo of the receipt — that's the whole flow. No form to fill in first, no receipt-type selector. The scan returns merchant, date, total + currency, category and items count directly in the chat.
Is the receipt scanner free?
Your first 10 successful scans each UTC calendar month are free. After that, an accepted receipt photo debits Balance when sent; there is no separate confirmation step. Rejected non-receipts and failed extractions do not keep a paid debit.
What does a single scan actually return?
Merchant name, date, total with its currency, a spending category, how many items were on the receipt, and a confidence line — plus a standing disclaimer that this is an AI extraction to verify, not accounting or tax advice.
Can I scan receipts in bad lighting or at an angle?
The scanner accepts real-world photos rather than requiring a document scan. A slight angle or faded thermal print may reduce confidence, while a blurry or unreadable photo can fail extraction; a failed paid extraction is refunded.
Does scanning build up a spending total over time?
Yes — /month sums the current calendar month's scans into per-currency totals plus your top-3 spending categories, so repeat scanning compounds into a running picture rather than staying a one-off lookup.
Do I need to install anything to scan receipts?
No — it runs entirely inside Telegram, an app you likely already have. There's no separate receipt-scanning app to download, no account to create beyond starting the chat.
