In-Depth
Everything about ButterFile, in depth
A closer look at how accurate the AI is, which files you can upload, what every plan includes, and how credits and pricing add up. Clear answers, no guesswork.
Accuracy
OCR that reads like a person, at machine speed
ButterFile's AI reads the text and numbers off almost any document (printed, scanned, or photographed) and structures them into the columns you need.
On clear documents and scans
Reads layout and meaning, not just characters
What accuracy means here
The AI reads printed text, tables, and handwritten-style figures, then maps each value to the right field (fewer manual fixes, less double-checking).
Why it stays reliable
Instead of matching characters one by one, the model reads the whole document in context, so it handles any layout without a fixed template.
Works with anything that has text
Invoices, IDs, deeds, handwriting and more. No fixed template required.
Line items, totals, tax
Store, date, amount
SKUs, quantities, prices
VAT and tax IDs
Name, ID number, address
Plate number and province
Parties, dates, clauses
Parcel and owner details
Notes and filled-in forms
Any labelled fields
File types
Upload almost anything with text
From clean digital PDFs to a quick photo of a receipt, ButterFile accepts the formats you already have.
Single or multi-page documents
Screenshots and exported images
Standard photos and scans
Compressed web images
iPhone camera photos
Scans & phone photos
A flatbed scan or a quick snap from your phone both work. The AI handles real-world lighting and angles.
Batch upload, 100+ files
Drop in a whole stack at once, pick a template, and process them into a single combined output.
ZIP archives
Upload a folder of documents as a ZIP and let ButterFile unpack and process everything inside.
Uploaded files are encrypted during processing and deleted automatically after conversion.

Pricing & credits
Simple math: 1 credit = 1 page
You are billed by the page, not by the file. That makes it easy to predict what any batch will cost before you run it.
1 credit = 1 document page
Each plan comes with a monthly pool of credits. Processing one page of a document spends one credit. Credits reset every month.
A 3-page PDF
Uses 3 credits, one per page.
A single photo
Uses 1 credit, one image is one page.
A 100-file batch of 1-page receipts
Uses 100 credits in one run.
