Side by side
A web invoice generator with 13 templates, live preview, PDF rendering with headless Chromium, email sending and data kept in the browser.
Uses an LLM to read photos of receipts, invoices and PDFs, extracting amounts, dates, merchants and taxes into a searchable table with currency conversion.
No client ledger or payment tracking, and saved invoices live only in that browser's storage.
The author calls it early development, it is not double-entry accounting, and extracted figures need checking.
