## What is iHatePaper?

Paper sucks. iHatePaper makes it disappear.

You snap a photo. iHatePaper does the rest. It reads the document, names it intelligently, picks the right folder, and files it into your own Google Drive. Searchable. Organized. Out of your hair forever.

No more shoeboxes of receipts. No more "where did I put that bill?" No more pretending you're going to organize your tax docs this weekend.

— HOW IT WORKS —
1. Snap a photo of any paper document. Bills, receipts, tax forms, medical records, leases, anything.
2. iHatePaper's AI reads the document and figures out what it is, who sent it, and when it was dated.
3. Each scan becomes a clean, text-searchable PDF, automatically named with a smart filename like "Eversource-2026-04-27.pdf."
4. The PDF is filed into the right folder in your Google Drive, under Finances, Medical, Legal, Insurance, and so on. Folders are created automatically the first time you need them.
5. You forget the document ever existed. That's the goal.

— WHAT MAKES IT DIFFERENT —
* It files for you. Most scanner apps stop at making a PDF. iHatePaper picks the folder, names the file, and puts it where it belongs.
* Your files stay yours. Everything lands in your own Google Drive, not on our servers. We don't store your documents. We don't read them after processing. We don't sell anything to anyone.
* Every PDF is searchable. Built-in OCR means the text inside your scanned papers shows up in Drive search and Spotlight. Looking for last March's electric bill? Just search "Eversource March."
* Built for batches. Capture multiple pages of a document, or a whole stack of unrelated papers in one session. The app sorts them all out.
* Photo library import. Already have scanned paperwork sitting in your Photos? Pull it straight from your camera roll, up to ten at a time.
* Background uploads. Walk away. Lock your phone. iHatePaper finishes the job in the background and pings you when everything is filed.

— SMART CHOICES YOU GET TO MAKE —
* Pick your filename style: "Vendor + Date," "Vendor + Category," or "Category + Date."
* Toggle year subfolders for tax-season-friendly organization.
* Pick your own root folder name in Drive, call it whatever you want.
* Open the camera straight from app launch when you're in scanning mode.

— iHATEPAPER PRO —
Free users get 5 documents per month. Pro unlocks unlimited scanning and goes for either:
* Weekly: $1.99/week with 3-day free trial
* Yearly: $29.99/year with 3-day free trial

— ABOUT THE BEAVER —
Yes, there's a beaver. He hates paper too. He's emotionally supportive.

— PRIVACY —
We process your scans transiently. Images are held only long enough to convert to PDF, identify, and upload to your Drive. Then they're deleted from our servers. Your documents live in your Drive, controlled by you, revocable at any time from your Google account.
