Expense Tracking engine with zero-shot categorization using localized LLMs.
Auto-Cat watches an inbox (or a folder) for receipts and invoices, extracts the line items, and categorizes every transaction against your chart of accounts — zero-shot, on-device. No rules to maintain, no templates to train, no data sent to a third-party parser.
It was built for solo operators who bill clean expenses back to clients and dread the month-end archaeology. Export lands where your accountant already lives: ledger-ready CSV, or straight into your bookkeeping tool.
Describe your chart of accounts in plain language; the local LLM maps every line item to it — no training set required.
Point it at a mail folder or directory. New receipts are extracted, deduplicated, and filed automatically.
Tags billable lines to projects and clients, producing clean pass-through summaries at month end.
CSV, JSON, or direct push in your bookkeeping tool's dialect. Dates normalized, taxes separated.
"Month-end close went from an evening of PDF archaeology to ten minutes of review. The client splitting alone pays for it."
"I was skeptical of zero-shot categorization. Three months in, it has misfiled exactly two receipts — both ambiguous by hand too."
Any Apple Silicon Mac runs the local model comfortably. Older Intel Macs fall back to a smaller quantized model with slightly lower accuracy.
No — Auto-Cat produces clean, categorized, exportable records. Filing stays with your accountant or bookkeeping software.
Beta cohort is open — include your operating system and bookkeeping tool in the request.
Local-LLM writing co-author that drafts in your voice, never the cloud's.
