Comparison
Looking for a Dext alternative?
eggz reads your bills where they already arrive, in Gmail and Missive, and sends quotes and invoices back out to Xero from the same place.
The short answer
Dext covers the receipt half of the job and covers it well. It will not raise a quote or build an invoice, so the other half stays manual in Xero. eggz runs the whole cycle from the inbox: a supplier bill is read the moment it lands, a quote goes out under your own template, and the accepted quote becomes the invoice in one click. Our extraction is more accurate, and nothing has to be forwarded to an address anyone has to remember.
What Dext is good at
- Receipt capture built over fifteen years, with a native mobile app.
- Supplier rules that code future documents automatically once you have processed a supplier once.
- A Xero App Store rating in the high fours across more than a thousand reviews, which is earned.
Where eggz is a different answer
- Native Gmail and Missive connections, not a forwarding address you have to remember to use.
- Quotes and invoices raised in eggz and published to Xero, with one click turning an accepted quote into the invoice.
- Built in Australia for Australian GST and the quote to job to invoice to paid sequence.
- More accurate reading of the document, so there is less to correct before it posts.
