Capture, every way
Forward a receipt from your inbox or drag-and-drop a PDF on the web. We read merchant, date, total, tax, tip, line items — even the card last-four — and only flag the receipts where something looks off.

Snap a receipt. Connect your bank. Issue an invoice. The bookkeeping runs itself — ExpenseGhost reads, matches, and posts every line, keeping your books, reports, and Schedule C current while you run the business.
Web beta — works on desktop and mobile browsers. Native iOS and Android apps come later in 2026. Forward receipts from any email in the meantime.
No card-issuing roadmap, no global-payouts handwaving. Just automated bookkeeping for solo and small businesses — receipts captured, books kept current, invoice payments posted, reports built fresh, year-end packet ready.

Email · PDF · Web uploadPlaid connects your checking, savings, and credit accounts. Transactions land structured and stay paired to the receipts that prove them — no re-imports, no duplicates.
Plaid · Real-time syncEvery receipt pairs to a transaction by merchant, amount, and date — and ExpenseGhost learns how you categorize, so the next month gets sharper. You only step in for items that are genuinely ambiguous.
Auto-match · Learns your spendYou issue the invoice; the rest runs itself. Card payments land through Stripe, the journal entry posts the moment cash clears, and AR reconciles automatically — no separate ledger to keep in sync.
Stripe · Auto-post · Auto-reconcileP&L, trial balance, and cash flow — built fresh from the same posted entries. The period closes when you say so; the reports are ready the moment it does.
P&L · Trial balance · Cash flowEvery category maps to its Schedule C line as it posts, with self-employment tax and a quarterly set-aside tracked alongside. When April comes, hand your CPA a clean packet — no spreadsheets, no scramble.
Lines 1–27 · SE tax · CPA-readyThree stages, one continuous pipeline. Receipts and transactions flow together; nothing sits in a folder waiting on you.
A photo, a forwarded email, or a Plaid feed lands in ExpenseGhost. Receipts are read; transactions arrive structured.
Receipts pair to transactions automatically. Anything ambiguous surfaces in the review queue with the score and the rationale.
Posting to your chart of accounts is automatic. Trial balance, P&L, and Schedule C all update in real time.
No checklist. No spreadsheet. The pipeline does the work; you only see the things that actually need a decision.
Connect a bank, forward a receipt, and watch the ledger do the rest. ExpenseGhost is free to try while we're in beta.
