Every document read. Stored where you decide.

Paper Stuff reads every invoice, receipt and letter you give it. Search for any word on the page, or simply ask a question. Archive to your own Nextcloud, Synology NAS, S3 storage or Google Drive — processed in the EU, on a server in Germany.

  • Server in Germany
  • Processed in the EU
  • Encrypted data
  • Your own storage

Read, not just scanned.

Every document is read as it arrives: vendor, amounts, dates, due date and IBAN. It is sorted into a category, given a readable name and checked against what you already have. If the document itself proves a bill is paid, it is marked paid; foreign currencies are converted to euros at the ECB rate.

Filed where you decide.

Connect your own Google Drive, Nextcloud, Synology NAS or any S3-compatible storage, and every document is filed there into a category folder. Each upload is verified before our working copy is deleted. No storage of your own? Your documents stay with us — processed in the EU, on a server in Germany, with sensitive document data encrypted per group, ID documents per person.

AI assistants and agents, within clear limits.

Two ways in — both with permissions you set.

AI assistants via MCP

Connect an assistant with one click over MCP, the open standard: you confirm access in the browser, no key to copy. Choose “Read only” (read, details, export) or “Read and write” (adds upload and edit). Deleting and admin actions are never possible through an AI connection. Revoke access any time under “Connected apps”. Tested with Claude.

Agents and your own tools via API key

Personal AI agents, scripts or a company's own systems — ERP, scanner station — each get their own key with exactly the rights you choose: upload only, say, or read and export. A key is valid for one group or for all. A REST API and a command-line tool come with it.

Everything that's included

The complete list — for companies and households alike.

Ask instead of browsing

Ask a question in your own words — Paper Stuff finds the invoice, even when the word only appears on page three.

Your storage stays yours

Nextcloud, Synology NAS, S3 or Google Drive — you choose where the originals live.

Read on arrival

Vendor, amount, due date and IBAN are ready before you open the document.

Shared, with clear roles

A household or a company shares one space; the tax consultant sees everything and changes nothing.

Capture

Paper in, PDF out — from wherever the document is.

  • Scan with your phone

    Several pages become one PDF.

  • Upload PDFs and images

    Drag and drop, or pick files from your device.

  • Import from Gmail

    Invoice attachments land in a review queue; you decide what gets in.

  • Install as an app on your phone

    Opens from your home screen like any other app.

Understand

The content of each document, read and checked.

  • Vendor, amounts, dates, IBAN

    Due date included — ready for payment or review.

  • Sorted automatically

    Housing, vehicle, insurance, work and more; you can always change it.

  • Readable file names

    IMG_2041.jpg becomes Mueller-Heizungsbau_Wartung_2026-03.pdf.

  • Duplicates spotted

    The same file — or the same content in a new scan.

  • Marked paid when proven

    A payment confirmation on the document itself sets the bill to paid.

  • Foreign currencies in euros

    Converted at the ECB rate of the day.

Find

Every word on every page is searchable.

  • Search any word

    Company, amount, invoice number or a term buried on page three.

  • Ask in plain language

    “What did the heating service cost?” finds the invoice.

  • Page previews

    See the page before you open the file.

  • Filters

    By category, payment status, income or expense.

Store

Your storage, your folders, your data.

  • Your own storage

    Google Drive, Nextcloud/WebDAV, Synology NAS or any S3-compatible storage.

  • Filed into category folders

    Folder names follow your language.

  • Verified before deletion

    Every archive upload is checked before the working copy is removed.

  • Encrypted, in the EU

    Processed in the EU, server in Germany; sensitive document data encrypted per group, ID documents per person.

Share and control

One space per household or company, with clear roles.

  • Groups

    A household or a company shares one document space.

  • Roles

    Owner, admin and member — plus read-only access.

  • Read-only access for your tax consultant

    Sees and exports everything, changes nothing.

  • API keys with fine-grained permissions

    Upload only, read only, export — you choose per key.

  • Audit log

    Uploads and deletions made with an API key are logged.

  • Sign in with Google, GitHub or email

    No extra password unless you want one.

Automate and connect

Paper Stuff works with the tools you already use.

  • Reminders for due bills

    A digest before a payment is overdue.

    Renew in time, not at the airport.

    A QR code for your banking app and a SEPA XML file for transfers.

  • REST API and command-line tool

    For agents and your own systems — each key with exactly the rights you choose.

  • Connect AI assistants

    Over MCP with one click, read only or read and write — tested with Claude.

  • Yearly tax export

    PDF, CSV and a ZIP of the source documents — German §35a and Spanish IRPF included.
