Looking for a Hubdoc alternative?
eggz reads bills and receipts where they arrive, in Gmail and Missive, pulls the GST and the line items off the document, and sends quotes and invoices back out to Xero.
The short answer
Hubdoc has not gone anywhere, so this is a choice rather than a rescue. It is a filing cabinet with fetching attached: documents land, and someone still has to do something with them. eggz reads the document the moment it arrives and posts a draft to Xero with the GST and line items already on it, then covers the outbound side too, quotes under your own template and an invoice raised from the accepted one.
What Hubdoc is good at
- It is still sold and still supported, and Xero's Australian plan terms still link Hubdoc's own terms of use.
- Fetching from bank and utility accounts, which few tools still do.
- Bookkeepers have years of muscle memory in it.
Where eggz is a different answer
- The inbox is the source. Bills and receipts are read where they already arrive, not uploaded again.
- GST and line items are read off the document, not guessed at.
- Quotes and invoices as well as bills, so the whole cycle sits in one place.
- Built in Australia, for Australian GST.
