Beyond OCR

Plain OCR reads text. This one also judges trust.

suspected_fraud

Detects tampering, altered amounts, and synthetic receipts. Trained on real fraud patterns from expense processing.

duplicate

Identifies the same receipt submitted twice — even if the file is renamed or re-photographed.

handwritten

Flags low-quality or handwritten receipts so you can route them for manual review instead of auto-approving.

Integrate in minutes
