| Feature | Receipt scanning |
|---|---|
| Partly | Scan a receipt with AI, check the extracted amounts, then assign the items to group members. |
| Splitwise | Splitwise lists receipt scanning and itemization in Pro. Since 2026-10-14, its separate Itemize restaurant flow is free in the US and UK. Check the flow and market: this does not establish the same free features everywhere. |
| Tricount | Tricount advertises free expense tracking and receipt photos. Its reviewed features page does not establish automatic line-item OCR; a missing statement is not proof that a feature is unavailable in every version. Tricount |
Partly
Partly is an iOS and Android app for scanning receipts, splitting group expenses and tracking recorded repayments.
An invited person can join a group as a guest before creating an account. Creating an account preserves that guest’s identity, groups and rights.
Partly records repayments but does not transfer money. Payment links show details to copy or open an external payment app; the payment happens outside Partly.
This public website has no account ledger or sign-in. Use the iOS or Android app to manage expenses.
