    Expense reports shouldn't take longer than the actual trip

    You just got back from a business trip. Now comes the fun part: digging through crumpled receipts, remembering which meal was client entertainment, and filling out that expense report your finance team requires.

    Two hours later, you're still categorizing Uber rides and wondering if that airport coffee counts as 'meals' or 'travel.' There's got to be a better way.

    AI builds your expense report from receipts and transactions

    Upload your receipts, credit card statement, or expense list. Superworker's AI instantly:

    Expense report vs expense tracker: What's the difference?

    People often confuse expense reports with expense trackers. Here's the distinction:

    Expense Report: A one-time document submitted for business reimbursement. Created after a trip, project, or purchase. Submitted to your employer for payback. Includes receipts and approval signatures.

    Expense Tracker: Ongoing monitoring of all your spending over time. Used for personal budgeting or business accounting. Tracks patterns, not individual reimbursements.

    Use this template if you need to get reimbursed by your employer. Use an expense tracker if you're monitoring ongoing spending for budgeting purposes.

    Business expense categories included

    Standard business expense categories for corporate reimbursement:

    Travel: Flights, trains, rental cars, parking, tolls, mileage
    Lodging: Hotels, Airbnb, extended stays
    Meals & Entertainment: Client dinners, business lunches, conference meals
    Supplies: Office materials, equipment, software, tools
    Professional Development: Training, conferences, certifications, books
    Communication: Phone, internet, shipping, postage
    Other: Miscellaneous business expenses

    All categories follow standard corporate accounting practices. Your finance team will recognize them immediately.
