There's lots of people out there that simply don't use cash anymore. Does this service have anything to offer people like me that mint doesn't already offer? I see the use if you make most of your purchases in cash...just not otherwise.

Besides extracting the data from the recipt we also keep the image. From beta testers this has been useful for expense reports which require evidence, as well as for returning items at stores. Of course returns depend on the original vendor, but we've had beta testers return stuff at grocery stores, brick and mortar tech stores, and such.

Ultimately this is useful for submitting tax returns come April.

I dunno about you, but while my credit card company does itemize my transactions, they don't provide any sort of reporting tool to track how I spent my money. (They do provide a CSV export, which is suddenly looking like something I should try to analyze.)

Mint does a pretty good job in analysis. It categorizes anything I spend at Schnucks for example as "Groceries" and allows you to track how much you've spent this month compared to previous months and such. It only fails in purchases from places like Wal-Mart, where what you purchase can vary wildly.

Well, it offers a lot to people outside the states for whom nothing like mint is available.
