The case for
- Priced natively in INR at ₹79 per user per month on annual billing, with a GST invoice from an Indian entity.
- The free plan covers 3 users with 20 receipt autoscans each, enough for a founder-led team to run real expense claims.
- Standard includes 200 autoscans per user per month and Premium 1,000, which are stated numbers rather than a vague fair-use clause.
The catch
- Standard and Premium both carry a 5-user minimum, so a three-person team pays for five seats the moment it leaves the free plan.
- Monthly billing costs ₹99 per user against ₹79 on annual for Standard, a 25 percent premium for not committing twelve months.
- Listed prices exclude GST, so add 18 percent to every quoted rupee figure when you budget.
