Three ways in

Get invoices into ZeroPaste the way your clients already send them.

Forward emails, upload PDFs, or capture invoices on mobile. ZeroPaste fits around the way invoices already arrive.

Email forwarding

Give each client or supplier stream a dedicated alias so forwarded PDFs route into the right workspace with less cleanup.

Bulk upload

Drop a batch of PDFs and turn a pile of invoice files into reviewable rows in one pass, with duplicates and anomalies flagged early.

Snap

Capture paper invoices or WhatsApp receipt photos from your phone and push them into the same queue as emailed supplier bills.

Forward invoices from Gmail, Outlook, Xero mail flows, or a shared team inbox without changing the downstream review process.

Why ZeroPaste

Automation where it helps. Human judgement where it matters.

ZeroPaste extracts the data, flags anything unusual, and gives you a clean review step before anything leaves your desk.

Review-first extraction on every invoice

Vendor, invoice date, invoice number, totals, VAT, currency, and references land in a clean review layer before anything leaves ZeroPaste.

ZeroPaste at a glance

A short visible summary of the product, workflow, cost, alternative, and next step.

What is ZeroPaste?
ZeroPaste is an AI invoice extraction product for European bookkeepers. Forward invoices by email, upload PDFs, or capture them with Snap and get clean spreadsheet-ready rows with optional Xero draft bills and DATEV export for German practices.
Who is it for?
It is for solo bookkeepers and small bookkeeping firms that want clean invoice data in spreadsheets first, with a shared workspace, team invites, and optional Xero delivery when they are ready.
What problem does it solve?
ZeroPaste reduces manual invoice entry and copy-paste work when supplier, date, invoice number, total, and VAT would otherwise be typed by hand.
How does it work?
You upload invoices, forward them by email, or photograph paper invoices with Snap. ZeroPaste extracts the key fields into structured rows, flags anything uncertain for review, and lets you export CSV or XLSX or optionally create Xero draft bills.
What does it cost?
The entry point starts with 5 free invoices and no card required. After that, Starter is €29/month. Pro is €99/month and Agency is €299/month.
What is the main alternative?
The main alternative is still entering invoice data manually or using heavier tools like Dext, AutoEntry, or Hubdoc with more setup and higher cost.
What should the user do next?

Test the workflow on real invoices and judge whether upload, email, or Snap gets you clean rows fast enough, then decide if you want to add optional Xero draft bills later.
