# A business expense tracker app: Best Bookkeeping App

**Answer in brief:** Track expenses as they happen: send the agent each receipt, and it books the cost to the right account with the tax split off.


## From a photo to an entry

Send Claude a photo of the receipt. Claude reads photos, PDFs and screenshots,[1] and with Conecto connected it books the expense with its account, vendor, date and tax split off.[2]

## Keeping the receipt with it

To keep the receipt itself, the agent sends a one-time upload link that works for an hour, or you forward receipt emails to a Conecto inbox and the agent saves the attachments.[3][4] It then attaches the file to the expense, and the file cannot be deleted while the entry holds it.[5]

## What it costs

- Booking an expense: $0.01, the receipt included[2]
- Upload link: Free, and $0.001 when the file arrives[3]
- Attaching a receipt later: $0.01[5]
- Reports: Free[2]

## Questions & answers

### What is the best app to track business expenses?

One that books each expense, with its receipt, into the same books your bank lines are matched against, so nothing is entered twice. Conecto is our editorial choice for doing that from a chat.[2]
