Yes. Connect the Receipts server to Claude or Cursor with one URL. Then ask in plain words. Paste receipt lines, get an itemized subtotal, tax and total. It's free.
Does it read photos of receipts?
No. It takes receipt lines as text. Paste or type the lines in the format "2 x Coffee 4.50" or "Bagel 3.20".
