About Expense Badger

Expense Badger is a service that extracts information from expense invoices and receipts and creates an Excel file with the extracted data. It also renames the files to a format that is suitable for accounting software.

Whether you do your own accounting and bookkeeping or if you outsource it to a professional accountant, it's good practice to organize your expense documents beforehand to allow for fast matching to your bank statements. Keep a simple spreadsheet file to tally up your expenses.

It's also much easier in my experience to find that one invoice from years ago that you're looking for if the invoice file name has the company name in it.

How are files renamed?

By default the files are renamed to the following format:
"Date Currency Amount Vendor InvoiceNr - Original Filename".

You can provide a Liquid string to specify how you want your files renamed. The following values in curly braces will be replaced by data extracted from the invoice. Other text will be left as is.

{{ Date }} - the invoice date
{{ Date | date: \"%Y-%m-%d\" }} - the invoice date formatted as YYYY-MM-DD
{{ Date | date: \"%d.%m.%y\" }} - the invoice date formatted as DD.MM.YY
{{ Currency }} - the currency (e.g. USD, EUR)
{{ CurrencySymbol }} - the currency symbol (if available, e.g. $, €)
{{ TotalAmount | format_number: \"0.00\" }} - the total amount formatted with 2 decimal points
{{ VendorName }} - the name of the vendor or company 
{{ InvoiceNr }} - the invoice number 
{{ OriginalFilename }} - the original file name
{{ OriginalFileExtension }} - the original file ending
{{ TotalAmountConfidence }} - the confidence if the total amount was recognized correctly (decimal number from 0 to 1)
{{ InvoiceNrConfidence }} - the confidence if the invoice number was recognized correctly (decimal number from 0 to 1)
{{ VendorNameConfidence }} - the confidence if the vendor name was recognized correctly (decimal number from 0 to 1)

For example our default format is:

            {{ Date | date: \"%Y-%m-%d\" }} {{Currency}} {{ TotalAmount | format_number: \"0.00\" }} {{VendorName}} {{InvoiceNr}} - {{OriginalFilename}}

If you do not add the original file extension or original file name to the end of the file then the file extension is added automatically.

What's in the Excel file?

The Excel spreadsheet will contain columns for:

- Invoice Date
- Vendor Name
- Invoice Nr
- Currency
- Total Amount
- Filename after renaming
- Original Filename
- Confidence (in percent) of how sure the AI is that the Vendor was recognized correctly
- Confidence (in percent) of how sure the AI is that the Invoice Nr was recognized correctly
- Confidence (in percent) of how sure the AI is that the total amount was recognized correctly
