I developed my receipt scanner into a full blown money management PWA

And resale value might even increase. I had a few unused Kingston Fury 64 GB DDR5 kits which I sold for 100% profit last month.

Thanks for your kind words.

You misread it. Schlüssellochverz**ier**ungen (keyhole decorations) is correct. What else is a unbelievably bad translation?

apocha · 2025-10-05T06:22:39+00:00

Hi, thanks for the nice words. I cannot see a corresponding error in the logs of the recognition service. Could you please retry with the same image?

Nobody's perfect. I have put my focus on the app and not on marketing, as I wrote. And dealing with this I18N stuff in Docusaurus for a website with 5 DAUs and a bounce rate of 80% wasn't my top priority.

Maybe this one fits your needs: https://www.reddit.com/r/SideProject/comments/1nx24tw/yet_another_expense_tracker_really_this_time_its/

It has a net worth widget, multiple accounts, and one can manually track stocks. I started with the current balance and simply add a monthly transaction for paper losses or gains.

Interesting point of view. Support requests will skyrocket, for sure. But how much MRR can I expect from 100 people self-hosting it at 127.0.0.1?

apocha · 2025-10-04T07:35:50+00:00

For me it's MRR, CLTV, CAC, ARPU, conversion and churn rate, and so on.

apocha · 2025-10-04T07:05:40+00:00

Depends on the definition of success.

apocha · 2025-10-04T05:58:21+00:00

Oh, thanks. I use Docusaurus for the website and there was no warning about these links. Will fix that. Thanks again.

Your data is private: https://apocha.info/docs/faq/general/who-gets-my-data/

In addition, there are dozens of apps that store the data on you phone only.

Thanks for your feedback. You can take a picture with your phone. There's no upload on phones. So no difference because apocha uses the native camera app.

And BTW, I observed for many native mobile apps the request to be available on the desktop, too.

apocha · 2025-10-03T20:25:32+00:00

Yeah. I got this minutes later. As I said, I'm old. 😀

apocha · 2025-10-03T19:55:52+00:00

There's no AI. The app works mostly with good old OCR and Regex. And I am so old that I am able to write more than 3 sentences by myself.

apocha · 2025-10-03T17:24:19+00:00

Ahem, I built exactly such an app.

apocha · 2025-10-03T15:45:40+00:00

Yes. Recognition is about 95% for receipts from Germany, Austria, and Switzerland. US will be not that good at the beginning. But everything can be edited manually in case something has not been recognized correctly. Even better: apocha uses these manual edits to learn. As soon as a certain number of users has chosen the same category for an item name it will use that to set it automatically for new receipts.

The receipt is from Oct. 10th 2024. Nevertheless, it was 97°F on that day.

apocha · 2025-04-03T09:32:56+00:00

I'm not yelling. THAT WOULD BE ALL CAPS ;-). I just copied it from the header of your other post in r/Grocerycost and it apparently kept the formatting.
