Built for people who get paid by the job

From pocket to spreadsheet in three steps

  1. 1

    Snap or upload

    Take a photo in the shop, or drop in a batch of PDFs and emailed invoices at once.

  2. 2

    AI reads it

    Date, supplier, description, category, net, VAT, total and receipt number. Net plus VAT is checked against the total, and anything unclear is highlighted for you to confirm.

  3. 3

    Export and hand over

    Download the Excel tracker with category totals and a business vs personal split, or ZIP every original receipt in one go.

  • Sorted January to December, numbered, with net, VAT and total columns
  • Totals by category, overall totals and a business vs personal split
  • Receipts that need a second look are highlighted, never hidden
  • Duplicates and excluded receipts listed separately for the record
  • Export to Excel or CSV for any year, any time

Questions

Is Vatly only for RCT subcontractors?

No. It works for anyone who needs to keep receipts: self-employed tradespeople, freelancers, sole traders, landlords and small businesses. RCT subcontractors just tend to have the most receipts.

What counts as a scan?

Each receipt the AI reads counts as one scan. Editing a receipt, adding one by hand, downloading and exporting are always free and unlimited.

What if I run out of scans?

Move up a plan any time from Billing. You only pay the difference for the rest of the month. Otherwise your scans reset on the 1st.

What files can I upload?

Photos (JPG, PNG, WebP, and iPhone photos, which convert automatically) and PDFs, up to 15 MB each. You can upload many at once.

What does Precision AI add?

Standard scans use a fast, accurate model. Precision AI switches to the most capable model available and runs a second check whenever a figure doesn’t reconcile or the print is hard to read. It’s for people who want to change nothing before handing the sheet over.

Can I cancel?

Yes, any time from Billing. You keep your plan until the end of the period you’ve paid for, and your receipts and exports stay available.

Does Vatly replace my accountant?

No. It gets your receipts into the shape your accountant needs. Categories like home broadband or rent may only be partly claimable, so check those with them.
