python, ocr, streamlit, opensource

Built a receipt scanner with Python OCR and it turned into a full finance toolkit.

5 modules: receipt scanning, portfolio tracking, report generation, job tracking, subscription auditing.

The OCR is about 90% accurate on real receipts. Image preprocessing (deskew, contrast, noise reduction) was the key.
