smart-receipt-scanner

Smart receipt scanner is an easy converter of invoices and receipt images into an csv file containing a list of products and prices.

Features

The script is able to work with images already cropped and of good quality, for example generated with smartphone scanning apps.

Now we support Migros and Lidl as grocery stores in Switzerland, Italy, Germany etc.

The current version supports many languages but uses Italian as default. In order to change the receipt language, modify the parameter lan in the current line: receipt_text = image_to_string(im, lang='ita').
