## What is Deduct Local?

Keep business receipts organized, without a cloud account. Deduct Local scans on your iPhone or iPad, reads text on-device and suggests categories for you to review.

SCAN, CHECK, SAVE
• Scan a paper receipt or import an image.
• Check the merchant, date, amount and suggested category before saving.
• Add notes, review VAT and replace a receipt image without losing the original before saving.
• Search your receipt vault and filter by date, category or review status.

A CLEARER PICTURE
• Browse expense records by UK tax year or across all time.
• See monthly spending and potential allowable expenses.
• Keep different currencies separate, without invented exchange rates.
• Open recent receipts directly from the dashboard.

ACCOUNTANT-FRIENDLY REPORTS
Prepare CSV and PDF reports for your accountant. Review suggested categories before exporting. Reports help organize records; they do not file a tax return or determine which expenses you can legally claim.

PRIVATE BY DESIGN
Receipt processing runs on-device. No cloud OCR, analytics SDK, account or subscription. Protect the app with the optional device-authentication lock. You choose when to share an export or save a backup outside the app.

TRY IT FREE
Scan and save your first 10 receipts, then review and edit them. One lifetime purchase unlocks additional receipt saves and CSV/PDF exports. Purchase and restore require the App Store; receipt scanning and organization work offline.

Offline. Private. Yours.
