IFTA Receipt Sorter.
An app idea for trucking and logistics.
A phone tool that reads fuel receipt photos, sorts them by state and quarter, and exports an IFTA-ready spreadsheet.
What the search found
- Who pays
- Owner-operators and small fleets who file IFTA themselves
- The problem
- Quarter end means a pile of receipts and hours of sorting by state and quarter. One owner-operator says most spend 6 to 12 hours per quarter doing it by hand.
- The gap
- The cheap end of the market is either a full TMS or a GPS mileage app. A receipt-first tool that works from photos, with no hardware and no subscription to a big platform, is not what the listed tools sell.
- Already out there
- IFTA Track torotms.com
Mobile app that tracks miles by state with phone GPS and logs fuel stops, but the pitch is mileage tracking, not sorting a shoebox of receipts.
- TenTrucks tentrucks.com
Positions itself as IFTA software for owner-operators, so it is the closest direct competitor and the main threat.

- People asking for it
- How do you handle IFTA every quarter reddit.com
A software person asks how owner-operators actually handle IFTA each quarter, which shows the process is manual and painful.
- Does anyone pay to get IFTA filed reddit.com
Owners discuss paying a third party to file, which shows willingness to pay to make this go away.
- IFTA without the spreadsheet chaos oxmaint.com
Describes fleets buried in receipts and exposed to penalties every 90 days.

- The big assumption
- Receipt photo capture is accurate enough that drivers trust the export without rechecking every line.
- Test it this week
- Have five owner-operators send you a quarter of receipt photos and sort them by hand, timing yourself and noting how many are unreadable.
