Abukai: Generate Expense Reports With A Snapshot

Expense reports are a pain. And, as if tabulating the amount you've spent on each trip wasn't enough (not to mention keeping track of all the receipts), many businesses have archaic systems that make submitting a report even more arduous. Fortunately there are a few services looking to help make things easier�?�and some of them make it as simple as taking a snapshot with your phone. One such service is Abukai, a startup that was founded last summer.�Here's how it works: first, you take photos of your receipts using the service's iPhone, Android, or Blackberry applications. Hit submit, and the service will try to generate a full expense report, complete with categorizations. The service uses a variety of tricks to make the report as complete as possible ?�if the receipt has a phone number on it, for example, the service will automatically look it up in a location database.
