What's new in Paperarchive

New features, improvements and fixes for the web, iPhone and Android, month by month.

Version 0.3

Merge, split and a search that can do the math

A lot has happened since version 0.2. Here are the highlights from March to October 2026.

New

  • Merge and split documents - Combine several documents into one or split a document into parts, leaving out pages you do not need.
  • Questions with numbers - Ask for example "How much did I pay for electricity in 2025?" and Paperarchive adds up the amounts from your documents.
  • Due dates and early-payment discounts - Payment deadlines and discounts are detected, Paperarchive reminds you in time, and you mark paid bills right in the document.
  • Overdue at a glance - Overdue bills get a clear hint in the list and in the document.
  • Notifications - A notification center shows what is new and what needs your attention.
  • Photos from your iPhone - HEIC photos are accepted and converted automatically.
  • Multi-page scanning in the browser - On your phone you capture several pages in a row, and they land in your archive as one document.
  • Sort search results - By relevance, date or name.
  • Project tags - Tags for projects like "House build" or "Moving" that Paperarchive assigns to matching documents on its own.
  • Connect to Claude - With the Paperarchive connector, Claude can look things up in your archive, read-only.
  • Getting started - New accounts get a short checklist to get going.
  • Invoices in billing - Your latest Paperarchive invoices are now listed right on the billing page.

Improved

  • More accurate recognition - Sender, category, tags and amounts are detected more reliably, and Paperarchive learns faster from your corrections.
  • Faster, better search - Results are more precise, and answers appear while they are being written.
  • Calmer lists - New illustrations for empty views; amounts now only appear in the document itself.
