Scan receipts to PDF for tax season without a leaky mobile app
Tax deadline approaching and your receipt folder is camera photos, not auditor-ready PDFs?
Your accountant wants PDFs — your wallet has crumpled paper
Freelancers and small business owners collect receipts all year, then panic in March. Phone photos lack searchability, consistent DPI, and merge order auditors expect.
Receipt scanner apps sync to clouds you never configured
Mobile scan apps promise automation but:
- Bank and travel receipts upload to vendor accounts by default
- OCR happens server-side with unclear deletion timelines
- Export limits push subscriptions during tax week
- Merged PDFs reorder pages unless you pay for "pro"
Scan, merge, and archive receipts in one private session
SnapKit builds searchable PDF packets in the browser from images you already have — no account linking your purchases to a data broker.
Turn photos into clean PDF pages
Run scan PDF on phone shots for consistent contrast and page size.
Merge by month or category
Stack exports with merge PDF before sending to your accountant.
**Your files never leave the browser.** SnapKit runs WebAssembly, FFmpeg, and Canvas directly in your RAM — instant speed, zero cloud uploads, and privacy you can actually trust.
