Could you build this?
Partial Tracking expenses with OCR and LLMs is common, but integrating seamless background Apple Pay transaction capture and system-wide on-screen transaction scraping requires deep iOS Shortcuts/Intent extensions or private system hooks.
What it would actually take: On iOS, this relies on Shortcuts automation triggers (Apple Pay transaction events pushing data to the app), Share Sheet extensions, or iOS OCR frameworks (VisionKit) paired with an LLM parser. Building a seamless background expense logger within Apple's strict sandbox requires expert navigation of iOS App Extensions, Shortcuts API hooks, and local CoreData/Vision synchronization.
