About

The shoebox on the shelf holds a year of receipts, and every one is a small promise you can no longer prove. A charger still under warranty, a client dinner waiting on reimbursement, a drill that quit three weeks after purchase: the paper survives, but the return window, the order number, and the exact total have faded into a crumpled pile. Receipt Roost turns that pile into a working record you can act on. Small-business owners keep asking the same three questions. Which of these can I still return or claim? Receipt Roost computes return and warranty deadlines the moment you enter a purchase, surfaces the ones closing this week, and can nudge you the morning before each one lapses. Did the register actually charge me correctly? Rebuild a receipt line by line and it reconciles items, tax, tips, and discounts against the printed total, flagging any mismatch and any likely duplicate charge it spots by merchant, date, and amount. If I have to fight for a refund, is my paperwork ready? Open a return, warranty, reimbursement, tax-support, or price-adjustment case, attach the sealed receipt image, and Receipt Roost scores how evidence-ready it is, tracks requested versus recovered value, and exports a paginated PDF packet, CSV, or backup archive. And where does all of this live? Right here, without a sign-in and without ads, trackers, or a backend service; receipts, images, and cases stay put unless you choose to export or share them. Receipt Roost organizes records and deadlines. It does not provide tax, accounting, warranty, or legal advice.
