$1.5K/Month via Text: How Receipt-AI Keeps It Simple

Queenie Peng and Ian Heraty were building tools for developers—
but their biggest fans weren’t technical at all.

Turns out small teams didn’t need another app. They needed help tracking expenses without extra effort.

So they pivoted.

Now, users just snap a photo of a receipt and text it in.

Receipt-AI handles the rest—AI pulls the data, files the receipt, and syncs it to Xero or QuickBooks.

They launched lean, charged annual up front, and bootstrapped the whole thing.

Now they're earning $1.5K/month and growing.

You're all caught up!
Stick at it, take the wins when they come, and get a bit of rest in too.
