Receipts Space overview

Receipts Space is a document management solution for macOS that helps users organize, store, and manage receipts, invoices, and financial documents locally on their devices. Unlike cloud-based services, Receipts Space follows a local-first approach where all data remains on your own computer or personal cloud storage like iCloud Drive or Dropbox, ensuring complete privacy and control over sensitive financial information.

The application supports PDF files, scanned documents, email attachments, image files, web pages, and electronic invoices (XRechnung/ZUGFeRD). Optical character recognition (OCR) automatically extracts text and identifies key data fields for efficient document processing.

Core Features
  • Automatic text recognition (OCR) that extracts amounts, dates, tax rates, bank details, and other information
  • Self-learning classification system that assigns documents to contacts and categories based on user behavior
  • Multi-device synchronization through shared directories across multiple Mac computers
  • Optional end-to-end encryption for secure storage in shared locations
  • Dashboard with visual analytics for income, expenses, and financial trends
  • Audit compliance mode (GoBD) with complete change tracking and document protection
  • Direct payment of incoming invoices from within the application
  • Automatic foreign currency conversion
  • Support for hardware document scanners including ScanSnap devices
  • Duplicate detection to prevent filing the same document multiple times
  • Export options for accounting software and tax preparation
  • Complete change history for each document

Receipts Space stores data in an open, accessible file format. Users can examine library contents directly through Finder, ensuring long-term data access independent of the application. The software requires macOS 14 or newer and is available in English and German.

Designed for freelancers, self-employed professionals, small businesses, and privacy-conscious individuals who need to track income and expenses while maintaining complete control over their data.

What's new in version 3.6

New
  • Smarter category suggestions for contacts: decide whether a recognized contact suggests its most frequently used category, the category of its most recent receipt, or nothing at all - and give any contact a fixed default category that always takes precedence.
  • Two new commands re-run recognition on the receipts you have selected: rebuild the searchable text layer, or re-read amounts, date and vendor just like a fresh import.
  • Automatic recovery for damaged libraries: a missing or damaged library info file is restored from its backup, or the app offers a repaired copy that opens normally again - optionally bringing back orphaned files as new documents.
  • Hold the Option key in the document list to turn "Open PDF Document" and "Open Original" into "Save As", so you can quickly save a copy elsewhere.
  • The feedback form has a new "Screenshot" button to capture part of your screen and attach it to your message with a single click.
Improvements
  • Long-running repairs, copies and exports now show progress and keep the app responsive; exports can be cancelled and clean up any partial files.
  • Clearer guidance when importing from GrandTotal and macOS automation permission is missing, with direct links to the help page and the right System Settings.
  • All supported languages now include the latest dialog texts.
Fixes
  • Documents scanned with an iPhone (Continuity Camera) are trimmed again, removing the surplus white border on import so the receipt fills the page.
  • Assigning a contact no longer overwrites a category you already picked; the contact's category only fills in when the receipt has none yet.
  • Dragging an email onto the app icon while the app is not yet running now imports it reliably.
  • Observed folders on iCloud Drive are now emptied after import when that option is enabled.
  • Creating, duplicating or saving a copy of a library no longer overwrites an existing library or a non-empty folder.
  • Opening the original file of a document imported from an older library works again, including earlier email attachments.
  • Importing an unsupported file, such as a Pages document, now shows a clear message naming the format instead of a confusing error.
  • Help and website links open correctly in every language, and untranslated texts fall back to English instead of showing an internal placeholder.
  • Damaged or unreadable attachments now explain what went wrong instead of silently showing an empty view.
  • App Store version: exporting no longer fails when the export folder option is turned off.
  • Fixed several rare crashes, including while closing a library or a window, right after editing a field, and when hovering over PDFs with a damaged text layer on macOS 26. Migrating an older library from a cloud folder is also more robust.

Völlig überteuert und nicht annähern so leistungsstark wir angekündigt. Keine Historisierung der vorgenommenen Belegeinstellungen, keine Verbindung zu einem NAS, Vorgenommene Einstellungen gehen nach Programmende verloren. Ich kann vom Kauf nur abraten.

This software is so helpful and it blows away other similar competing software.
The developer answers questions immediately, and has added several new features in just the last couple of months. Very pleased with its performance. Works well with the ScanSnap ix 500. I can now safely trash my Neat Scanner and no longer need to pay for monthly online software that was so slow and inaccurate.
