Where job costs leak on a build

Receipts die in the truck

Supply-house slips end up on the dash, in the glovebox, or crumpled in a tool bag. By invoice time, nobody remembers which job that $185 lumber run belonged to.

Job costing happens too late

If costs only get tallied when the job closes, an over-budget build is a surprise instead of a course correction. Margins are won while the work is still happening.

The office gets a shoebox

Whoever does your books — spouse, bookkeeper, or accountant — inherits a stack of faded thermal paper every month. That's hours of retyping and receipts too faded to read.

How Receni helps

Built-in answers for construction

Receni AI receipt scanning

Scan at the counter, done

Snap the supply-house receipt before you're back in the truck. Receni's AI pulls merchant, date, total, and category in seconds — gloves barely off.

Receni multi-workspace accounts

A workspace per job

Keep the Oak St. build separate from the kitchen remodel and both separate from shop overhead. Every receipt lands on the job it belongs to.

Receni visual expense dashboards

Live job-cost visibility

See materials, fuel, and equipment spend by category while the job is running — not weeks after the final invoice went out.

Receni monthly budgets

Budgets that flag overruns

Set a monthly materials or fuel budget per workspace and watch it fill up. Catch the overrun in week two, not at closeout.

Receni CSV export for bookkeeping

Clean handoff to the office

Export a CSV per job or per month. Your bookkeeper gets organized data instead of a dusty envelope from the truck.

Adding a receipt manually in Receni

No receipt? No gap

Cash dump-fees and roadside purchases without slips can be added manually in seconds, so job records stay complete.

How it works

From pocketful of paper to organized records

01

Snap the receipt

Point your camera at any receipt — paper, email screenshot, or invoice. Receni's AI reads the merchant, date, total, and category in seconds.

02

Review and save

Check what the AI extracted before anything is stored. Adjust the category or amounts, pick the right workspace, and save with one tap.

03

Export when it matters

At tax time or month end, export clean CSV files your accountant can open directly — no shoebox, no retyping.

Example scenario
Every supply run used to end with a receipt on the dashboard. Now it ends with a ten-second scan into the right job. When my accountant asks for the Oak Street costs, it's one export.

FAQ

Construction questions, answered

Yes. Create a workspace for each job and scan receipts straight into it. Each workspace has its own categories, budgets, dashboards, and export — so job costing is a byproduct of just capturing receipts.
