Lido eliminates expense report data entry for employees and finance alike.
Employees email receipt photos, upload smartphone captures, or submit scanned batches. Lido collects from all sources in a single pipeline.
Thermal receipts, handwritten tip lines, international formats, and low-contrast paper. Lido's OCR handles all of these including photos in poor lighting.
Lido pulls merchant name, date, subtotal, tax, tip, total, payment method, and currency. For itemized receipts and hotel folios, individual line items are captured.
Each merchant maps to your expense categories. Marriott is "Lodging," Delta is "Airfare." Out-of-policy amounts are flagged before the report is built.
Extracted data fills your expense report template or ERP module. Each row is one receipt with date, merchant, category, amount, policy flag, and source image link.
Upload a batch and get structured output in minutes.
Thermal printer receipts from restaurants, retail, and gas stations. Lido reads faded ink, small fonts, and varied POS formats.
Multi-line hotel bills with room rate, taxes, resort fees, parking, and F&B charges. Line items extracted separately for correct categorization.
Itinerary PDFs, seat upgrades, and baggage fees. Lido extracts flight date, carrier, route, fare class, and total amount.
PDF receipts from Amazon, software subscriptions, and online vendors. Processed identically to scanned paper receipts.
Handwritten or typed mileage logs and per-diem claim forms. Dates, distances, and destinations validated against policy rates.
Monthly card statements for verifying all charges have receipt images. Lido cross-references charges against submitted receipts to flag gaps.

Set up your expense schema and policy rules once. Lido handles the data entry on every receipt, every month.
A manufacturer with 40 field technicians and 15 sales reps submits 300+ receipts per month. Batches from business trips are uploaded at month-end and processed in minutes, meals, lodging, tools, and fuel automatically categorized and policy-checked.
Delivery drivers submit gas, tolls, and overnight lodging receipts weekly. Lido extracts each charge, maps it to the correct route and cost center, and flags fuel charges that exceed the per-mile allowance.
Consultants bill client meals, travel, and materials back to specific engagements. Lido tags each extracted expense with the client code from the receipt context or submitted metadata, producing a per-engagement expense ledger for client invoicing.
A holding company with multiple operating entities consolidates expenses monthly. Lido processes receipts from all entities in a single batch, tags each row with entity code and cost center, and produces a consolidated expense file for the shared services finance team.
