OCR Receipt → BIR Export
OCR pipeline that extracts receipt data and exports it in a BIR-compliant format.
What we set out to solve
Bookkeepers still type receipts into Excel one line at a time. Photos pile up, totals do not reconcile, and at filing time the data has to be re-keyed into BIR-formatted books and SLSP. Off-the-shelf OCR is generic; it does not know which line is the TIN, which is the VAT, and which is the discount.
How we built it
- 01Combine layout-aware OCR with a parser tuned for PH receipt fields like TIN, VAT-registered status, OR/SI series, and senior/PWD discounts.
- 02Validate every extraction against BIR field requirements before it is accepted.
- 03Export directly into BIR Books of Accounts and SLSP-ready CSVs, not just a generic spreadsheet.
- 04Let users review and correct low-confidence fields with a side-by-side image + extracted-data UI.
Tools & systems
- Next.js
- Tesseract / Cloud OCR
- Layout parsing (LayoutLM-style)
- Supabase
- Python validators
What it delivers
- Receipt-to-book entry collapses from minutes per receipt to seconds.
- Exports are BIR-shaped at source, so filing prep is a download not a rebuild.
- Audit trail per receipt for accountants and external auditors.
