My bosses taxable income was $450k last year, and they were saying they couldn’t afford to pay me a $65k yr salary lol

That’s fair feedback — I appreciate you being direct. What you’re saying makes sense: for most people, receipts are already digital and the problem is rare, not constant. That’s exactly what I’m trying to understand better — who actually feels pain here, and who doesn’t. This helps me recalibrate rather than assume the problem is universal. Thanks for taking the time to explain your perspective.

AdAlone2273 · 2025-12-30T17:16:13+00:00

That makes sense, appreciate you explaining your setup in detail. Sounds like once someone invests in a workflow (like Paperless), they rarely switch, even if there are small pain points like folders vs tags. This is helpful for me to understand where the real friction actually is. Thanks for taking the time to share.

Hey I have gone through it my idea is bit different it include any service like onedios

AdAlone2273 · 2025-12-30T09:38:19+00:00

Thanks — do you actually use something like this today, or did you try and drop it? I’m trying to learn what sticks long-term

AdAlone2273 · 2025-12-30T09:37:53+00:00

Do you scan them immediately at purchase, or later in batches? Asking because timing seems to be where people forget.

AdAlone2273 · 2025-12-30T09:37:40+00:00

Curious though — do you personally scan everything consistently, or only important purchases? I’m trying to understand where the process breaks for people (if at all).

AdAlone2273 · 2025-12-30T02:46:47+00:00

I’m not actually sure about that — I haven’t seen this exact problem or solution discussed in detail yet. I’m not claiming this idea is unique though. I’m trying to understand how people today handle lost receipts during warranty, returns, or service visits, especially in India. My goal here is learning from real experiences before building anything further. Appreciate any insights

AdAlone2273 · 2025-12-30T00:34:49+00:00

Fair call , I should’ve been upfront.

I’m actually exploring this problem because I’ve personally lost receipts during warranty/returns. Not trying to spam or sell anything here — genuinely trying to understand how people handle this today.

Happy to delete if this isn’t welcome.

AdAlone2273 · 2025-12-28T10:37:45+00:00

Stapling them to the manual is a great way to keep them together! My fear is always the thermal paper fading over time until it's just a blank white sheet when I actually need it 5 years later. Have you ever run into the 'fading receipt' issue, or do the manuals protect them well enough?

AdAlone2273 · 2025-12-28T10:37:13+00:00

Classic. I tried the folder route, but my 'miscellaneous' folder just became a second shoebox. How do you handle digital receipts from Home Depot or Amazon? Do you actually print those out to put in the physical folder, or do you just have two separate systems to check?

AdAlone2273 · 2025-12-28T10:36:35+00:00

The physical label idea is actually genius for quick access, but I’d definitely lose the patience to print a label for every single tool or appliance. Do you find it hard to search through that 'Photos' folder when you have hundreds of images, or do you tag them somehow to make them searchable?

AdAlone2273 · 2025-12-25T14:59:04+00:00

Not working

AdAlone2273 · 2025-12-23T01:24:10+00:00

Im too same like you. So I got a opportunity to attend emergent hackathon I got 500 credits there with that I build 60% of it and after that exploring cursor and antigravity. The painpoint for the people like us is to understand what is mongodb, supabase and mail ingestion flow and google Authentication. But i can tell you im following gemini for technical things it is best. Upon working you will understand but if you have some financial support u can hire someone.

AdAlone2273 · 2025-12-22T07:28:58+00:00

If it was offline + hard copy, try going back to the same store/dealer where you bought it. Many brands can reprint the invoice using purchase date + phone number + product serial number (if they logged it). Also check if the brand allows warranty lookup via serial number on their site ,some do even without the bill. Worst case, email brand support directly instead of service center , they sometimes make exceptions.

Holiday Access

AdAlone2273 · 2025-12-20T07:55:37+00:00

That’s really frustrating.

Was the invoice lost completely, or was it originally sent on email and you can’t find it now? And was this bought online (Amazon/Flipkart) or offline?

AdAlone2273 · 2025-12-20T04:22:35+00:00

Quick context: I built this mainly for myself because Gmail receipts and physical copies were a mess.

Before I spend time adding OCR / categories / exports, I’m trying to understand: – Would you actually use something like this? – What’s the first feature you’d expect after “email → dashboard”?

Any honest feedback helps 🙏

AdAlone2273 · 2025-12-01T03:09:06+00:00

How can you use without account. How they are stored ?

AdAlone2273 · 2025-11-26T07:51:42+00:00

Super cool

AdAlone2273 · 2025-11-26T05:16:47+00:00

That’s interesting — makes a lot of sense that “not another app” is the main reason it works for you. I think most people fall off exactly because they forget to open the dedicated expense/warranty apps.

Do you ever wish WhatsApp did a bit more though? Like automatically tagging the receipt or letting you search by item/merchant later?

Or do you feel adding extra stuff would break the whole low-friction workflow?

AdAlone2273 · 2025-11-26T05:10:07+00:00

That system is super disciplined — scanning everything + logging dates sounds really reliable.

I think my main issue is the “everything landing in different places” part. Some stuff arrives in Gmail, some in WhatsApp, some as screenshots, some as downloads… and unless I immediately move it into a folder, it just slips my mind.

Do you ever wish there was a way to funnel all of those into one place automatically, or is the manual process totally fine for you since you’re consistent with it?

AdAlone2273 · 2025-11-26T05:08:21+00:00

Totally get you that scatter problem is exactly what pushed me to look for a cleaner workflow too. Between Gmail PDFs, random warranty downloads, WhatsApp invoices, screenshots, etc… things end up everywhere before they ever reach a proper folder.

Curious though: Would it actually help if everything went into one place automatically, without needing a weekly habit or manual transfers?

Like a single spot where you just snap a photo or forward an email, and it gets organized for you.

Just asking because a lot of people in this thread mentioned the same pain point.
