Yep, those tiny little receipts you might need for expense reports or tax prep are hard to keep track of, and easy to lose. What if you could scan them anywhere you were? That’s where the Planon SlimScan can help! SlimScan is the first credit card sized portable scanner. It’s a full featured, high-resolution color scanner so small – how small? – so small and lightweight it fits into your wallet or credit card holder. (I think a credit card holder is a better place for it.) That way it goes wherever you go. It’s built of durable stainless steel. So if you’re a busy exec, especially one who travels, you deal with a ton of receipts. SlimScan lets you scan the receipts as you get them, or at the end of each day. Creating digital images ensures you won't lose expense receipts. You can create folders to group your scanned receipts by business trip, client, travel date, week or month, etc. SlimScan’s convenient reporting feature lets you easily assemble them into reports to expedite expense reimbursements and tax record keeping. It’s also great for capturing important contact information from business cards, even your handwritten notes on the back. Included Optical Character Reader (OCR) software can automatically convert the scanned images into editable form so you can import the contact information into Outlook, Microsoft Word or Excel spreadsheets to facilitate your follow up. SlimScan is $119.99.
