Dext alternatives for receipt capture

Why teams look for alternatives

Most teams change tools when manual cleanup is still too high, data is not granular enough, or reporting workflows feel too rigid. The core question is whether your current stack gives enough detail to support decisions, not just bookkeeping.

Evaluation criteria that actually matter

Prioritize receipt parsing quality, item-level extraction, consistent categorization, and export reliability. Add workflow criteria next: review speed, mobile capture usability, and how quickly finance can close the month.

Where Shopistats fits

Shopistats is built for AI receipt scanning with itemized tracking. It is a strong fit when line-level visibility and cleaner downstream reporting are more important than broad enterprise workflow modules.

Who should keep Dext or switch

Teams that mainly need accounting-oriented receipt capture may stay with Dext. Teams that need better itemization and operational spend analysis often benefit from a specialized tool that prioritizes data depth.

How to test before switching

Run a short pilot with real receipts. Measure extraction accuracy, number of manual corrections, and export quality. Keep your decision tied to evidence from your own workflow, not feature lists alone.

Next steps

Start with your highest-volume receipt categories first. If item-level reporting quality improves and manual effort drops, you have a clear business case to switch.
