Uploading documents: tips for good results

Which files work, how to take good photos and what happens to the values.

Files

You can upload PDFs and photos (JPEG, PNG, WEBP). We cannot read password-protected PDFs – save them without a password first.

Good photos

Photograph the document straight from above, in good light and without shadows. Upload documents with several pages as one PDF.

Confirming values

Values we read are only suggestions. They go into the calculation only after you confirm them. If something is wrong, correct it directly.
