Match loose receipts to card transactions automatically
A business owner had Claude scan all of their card transactions alongside a pile of unattached receipts and categorize them. It worked out details like which line was a tip from the transaction type without being told, and the user found it ahead of the built-in AI in their spend tool.

Starter prompt
I'm attaching a CSV of last month's card transactions and photos of my receipts. Match each receipt to its transaction by date, amount and merchant, allowing for tips or small differences. Give me a table of matched pairs, unmatched transactions and unmatched receipts. Suggest a spending category for each matched pair.
