What it does

Dext exists to end the shoebox of receipts. Photograph a receipt and it extracts the supplier, date, amount and category, then pushes a coded entry into your accounting system. The saving shows up at month end and again at year end when your accountant is not reconstructing a year of paper.

Where the AI actually is

OCR and AI extraction turn photos of receipts into coded entries.
