Multi language receipt processing helped Studio Ziveri become a powerhouse of HR efficiency for Italian businesses. The receipt OCR API integration processes over 1 million receipts per month, across multiple languages and currencies with unparalleled speed. By leveraging Taggun's fast, receipt scanning technology, Studio Ziveri's platform is able to efficiently manage the complexities of Italian labor law and VAT requirements while also enabling substantial tax savings for their clients. The result is a streamlined, compliant expense management system with receipt scanning and processoing speeds that outpaced industry giants, solidifying Studio Ziveri's position as the go-to HR software innovator for over 300 medium and large corporations navigating Italy's complex business landscape.

The speed of Taggun is crucial for our success because, for example, we have been compared with SAP Concur, which is the most famous receipt scanner in the world, yet our speed- thanks to Taggun is faster. I have been very happy with the collaboration from the Taggun team to develop a pricing model that works for our business, the team listen and that has been very helpful.

The challenge

Conquering Italy's Tax Complexity with Smart Receipt Handling

Studio Ziveri, a leading Italian HR software provider, serves over 300 medium and large corporations. Their clients face a unique hurdle in Italy's complex regulatory environment. Italian labor laws require businesses to detect VAT codes in digital receipts for tax compliance. This requirement is crucial given Italy's steep 40% tax rate.

The stakes are high for Studio Ziveri's clients. Employee expenses are tax-exempt, offering significant potential savings. However, capturing and processing these receipts efficiently poses a major challenge. Many companies struggle with time-consuming manual processes or inaccurate automated systems.

Studio Ziveri recognized an opportunity to stand out in the competitive HR software market. They needed to seamlessly blend labor law expertise with cutting-edge receipt processing technology. The ideal solution would need to:

- Accurately detect VAT codes in various receipt formats.
- Process receipts quickly to outpace industry competitors.
- Handle multi-language receipts for international transactions.
- Integrate smoothly with existing HR and payroll systems.
- Maintain strict data security for sensitive financial information.

Finding a technology partner capable of meeting these specific needs proved difficult. Many existing solutions lacked the speed, accuracy, or flexibility required for the Italian market. Studio Ziveri faced the challenge of developing a truly innovative approach to receipt processing that would deliver tangible value to their clients while ensuring full compliance with Italy's intricate labor laws.

The journey & solution

Studio Ziveri's Journey to Automated Receipt Processing

Studio Ziveri's quest for an efficient receipt processing solution led them to a pivotal decision. Build or partner? The choice became clear when they discovered Taggun's capabilities.

Alberto Ziveri, the founder, recognised three key advantages in partnering with Taggun:


1. Unmatched experience and data accuracy.
With over 1 million receipts processed monthly, Taggun's AI models offered reliable and precise detection.

2. International versatility.
While primarily focused on Italian receipts, Studio Ziveri valued the ability to handle various languages and currencies for their clients' global needs.

3. Robust data security.
In an industry where sensitive labor contracts are the norm, Taggun's individualised receipt scanning provided a trustworthy exception to Studio Ziveri's strict third-party data policies.

The integration of Taggun's AI-powered scanner into Studio Ziveri's "My Payroll" app created a seamless, user-friendly experience:
1. An employee makes a purchase and keeps the receipt.
2. They open the "My Payroll" mobile app.
3. Using the app, they snap a photo of the receipt.
4. Taggun's software instantly transcribes key data points.
5. The employee saves the receipt, triggering automatic data storage for reporting.
6. The app generates a report and sends it to a manager for approval.
7. Once approved, the expense is queued for the next payroll run.

This streamlined process not only saves time but also ensures accuracy in VAT code detection – a critical requirement for Italian businesses. The solution's speed and precision have given Studio Ziveri a competitive edge, even outpacing industry giants like SAP Concur.

Alberto Ziveri praised the collaboration, stating, "The speed of Taggun is crucial for our success. I've been very happy with the Taggun team's willingness to develop a pricing model that works for our business. They listen, and that has been very helpful."
