Six ways AI eliminates expense busywork.
From receipt scanning to anomaly detection — every dollar is classified, tracked, and fed into your burn rate analysis automatically.
Receipt Scanner
Upload a photo of any receipt and AI extracts the vendor, amount, date, and category automatically. Paper receipts, email confirmations, PDF invoices — all supported.
Bank Feed Sync
Connect your bank accounts and credit cards. AI auto-categorizes every transaction in real time as it lands — no manual entry, no spreadsheet imports.
Smart Categories
AI learns your spending patterns and auto-assigns transactions to accounting categories — SaaS, payroll, travel, office, marketing, and more. Adapts as your business evolves.
Burn Rate Integration
Categorized expenses flow directly into BurnRateOS burn rate analysis. Your runway, monthly burn, and cash-out date update automatically — no manual reconciliation.
Tax-Ready Export
One-click export of categorized expenses for your accountant or tax prep. CSV, PDF, or direct integration with QuickBooks and Xero. Tax season stops being a fire drill.
Anomaly Detection
AI flags unusual spending, duplicate charges, and subscription creep before they drain your runway. Get alerts for charges that don't match historical patterns.
Stop categorizing. Start operating.
Manual expense categorization is the tax founders pay for not having a finance team. AI Expense Categorizer eliminates it — so you can focus on product, customers, and growth.
Tax season in one click
Every expense is pre-categorized and tagged by the time your accountant asks for them. Export a clean, audit-ready spreadsheet instead of scrambling through bank statements.
Subscription audit that runs itself
AI identifies every recurring SaaS charge, flags forgotten subscriptions bleeding cash, and surfaces tools your team stopped using months ago.
Burn rate updates daily
No more manual categorization lag. Expenses are classified as they happen, so your burn rate dashboard reflects reality — not last month's spreadsheet.
Receipts from your phone
Snap a photo of a lunch receipt or a conference badge. AI extracts the details, categorizes the expense, and files it — all before you leave the restaurant.
Frequently asked questions
Which banks and financial institutions are supported?
We support over 10,000 US and Canadian financial institutions via Plaid, including all major banks (Chase, Bank of America, Wells Fargo, Citi), credit unions, and credit card issuers. International bank support is on our roadmap.
What receipt formats can the scanner handle?
The AI receipt scanner accepts photos (JPG, PNG, HEIC), PDFs, and forwarded email receipts. It handles crumpled paper receipts, faded thermal prints, and multi-item restaurant bills. Accuracy improves the clearer the image.
How accurate is the AI categorization?
Out of the box, categorization accuracy is above 90% for common expense types (SaaS, payroll, travel, office supplies). The model learns from your corrections — most teams reach 97%+ accuracy within the first month of use.
Can I customize the expense categories?
Yes. You can create custom categories, rename defaults, and set rules for specific vendors (e.g., 'always categorize Stripe fees as Payment Processing'). The AI respects your overrides and learns from them.
Does this replace my accounting software?
No — it complements it. BurnRateOS categorizes and organizes your expenses, then exports clean data to QuickBooks, Xero, or your accountant's preferred format. Think of it as the categorization layer that sits between your bank and your books.
Let AI handle the receipts.
