How NeatReciepts Works

NeatScan Technology Using advanced Optical Character Recognition, NeatScan technology (patent pending) extracts key information from your receipts, such as date, amount, payment method, expense category and vendor. If you scan in business cards, NeatScan automatically pulls out information like name, company, address, phone numbers, email address etc.

NeatScan actually learns to associate an expense category (such as meals or lodging) to a particular vendor (brands such as Starbucks or Hilton) so you don't have to type in the information each time. This ensures that your financial records are filed consistently and with minimal effort.

Rating : - Driver crashes Acrobat 8.2 Pro
If you plan to use with bundled Neat Receipts software this scanner seems functional. We are a small business that has gone paperless and purchased this scanner for mobile use primarily with small/short document uses in office. The scanner is not compatible with Acrobat 8.2 pro using latest drivers available on Neat site. Acrobat recognizes scanner, allows scanner setup, then when scan is commenced Acrobat freezes and then closes. I went so far as to download latest drivers from hardware manufactures site, (Plusteck Opticslim 12) to try WIA driver and their TWAIN. I would not recommend this scanner for Windows Vista Acrobat users.
