The bill organizer assigns items to diners, and PATE calculates each person’s share without requiring users to type amounts, totals, or percentages. The workflow is built for groups finishing a meal: scan the receipt, assign who had what, and review the resulting amounts. Shared dishes can be divided among selected people, and PATE says it can read currencies and bill details such as US sales tax, UK service charges, and European VAT as shown on the receipt. ## PATE 能做什麼？ ### Receipt scanning with OCR Photograph a receipt and let PATE extract merchant details, line items, prices, quantities, and totals into an editable list. ### Item-level assignment Select a person and the dishes they had instead of entering individual prices, amounts, or percentages. ### Shared-dish splitting Assign one item to multiple diners; PATE divides it evenly among the selected people and recalculates when assignments change. ### Receipt verification and editing Review the extracted bill and correct item names, prices, or quantities before finalizing the split. ### Currency and bill-format handling PATE says it detects currencies including pounds, euros, and dollars and can account for tax, service charges, and VAT shown on the bill. ### Sharing without an app download The person scanning the bill can share through WhatsApp, while other diners can receive their amounts without installing PATE. ## 使用情境 ### Splitting a restaurant bill among friends One diner photographs the receipt and allocates dishes among the table, producing itemized shares instead of relying on an equal split. ### Handling shared starters and desserts Select everyone who shared a dish so its cost is divided among that group rather than assigned to a single person. ### Using the app on international meals PATE is designed to work with bills in the US, UK, and Europe, including receipts showing local tax, VAT, or service charges. ### Coordinating a split through chat A bill organizer can use WhatsApp to involve friends in identifying what they had without requiring every participant to download the app. ## 常見問題 ### Do all diners need to install PATE? No. The person scanning the receipt uses PATE, while friends can receive their amounts without downloading the app. The site also mentions sharing through WhatsApp. ### What happens if the receipt is read incorrectly? PATE provides a verification step where users can edit item names, prices, and quantities before completing the split. ### Can PATE split food that several people shared? Yes. Select the people who shared an item and PATE divides its cost evenly among them. People can be added or removed and the amounts recalculate. ### Is PATE free? The core functionality has a free plan, but the Terms of Service state that it is limited to three bills per calendar month. Premium removes that bill limit and adds features including an analytics dashboard and PDF export; its current price is shown in the app at subscription time. ### Does PATE collect or transfer payments? No. PATE is not a payment processor and does not move money on users’ behalf. Users may choose to share payment handles with people included in a split. ## 快速資訊 - **Category**: Bill splitting / productivity - **Primary users**: People dividing restaurant bills among a group - **Core workflow**: Photograph receipt → assign dishes → review individual amounts - **Free plan**: Up to 3 bills per calendar month - **Premium**: Removes the bill limit and includes analytics dashboard and PDF export - **Receipt processing**: Microsoft Azure Document Intelligence extracts line items from receipt photos
