January Update #1

Happy New Year! We hope 2026 brings you success in your business and peace of mind with your finances. Here's what we've shipped in the first week of January.

Receipt scanning is here

The feature you've been asking for: snap a photo of a receipt, and Finistry extracts the details automatically.

• Works with photos and PDFs — Use your phone camera or upload scanned documents
• AI-powered extraction — Merchant name, amount, date, and category — all filled in for you
• Review before saving — Check the extracted data and make adjustments if needed

No more manual entry for every coffee, train ticket, or office supply purchase.

Redesigned expense pages

We've rebuilt how you interact with expenses:

• New expense view — A cleaner layout that puts the important details front and centre
• Unified create and edit — One consistent experience whether you're adding a new expense or updating an existing one
• Attached receipts — See your receipt right alongside the expense details

Improvements

Small changes that make a difference:

• Better expense and income lists — Clearer columns, easier scanning
• Faster navigation — Less clicking to get where you need to go

Under the hood

We've completely reworked how Finistry handles data behind the scenes:

• Smarter caching — Pages load faster, and changes appear instantly
• Improved file handling — More reliable saving and enhanced security for your receipts and documents
• Better reliability — Fewer loading states, smoother experience overall

What's next

January focus continues:

• Bank feed improvements — Faster sync, better categorisation
• Enhanced reports — Clearer insights into your income and expenses
