How accurate is this? I tried ocr'ing my receipts a while back and the issues with misrecognized numbers were too large to be worth it. Unlike text where a few typos are unlikely to largely change the meaning, a single digit wrong on a receipt can be a big issue and receipt numbers aren't super high fidelity.

This looks like something I'd definitely use (and pay for, at that price).

Thanks! I'm impressed, it got the currency and correctly identified items on the receipt.

I took a photo of a slightly curled but not wrinkled receipt on a wood desk. The receipt had dark printing on the back which partially showed through slightly in areas (though not behind/near the prices).

The item prices were correct, as was the total. It confused ¥79 as 179 for tax. The item names (Japanese, katakana) were wrong but mostly right, and seemed wrong in consistent ways rather than randomly. It said the store was Target, but it was actually a local store chain with an unrelated name/logo.

I'm going try it on a couple more if I have a chance.
