The new and improved Shoeboxed API was designed with one goal in mind: To make it as simple as possible for you to expand and build on the core Shoeboxed platform, and reach the hundreds of thousands of people who already use Shoeboxed today.

Shoeboxed is the best solution for turning paper clutter (receipts, business cards, bills and other documents) into data that is useful, portable, and 100% human-verified. Through our API, you can come up with innovative ways to send us documents for data extraction, or send us data directly from other sources. On the other end, you can also develop useful integrations and applications to put that data to work.

Whatever you choose to do, Shoeboxed is fully committed to providing you with the tools and assistance necessary to succeed. If you are looking for inspiration, you can check out what other people have done with our API here, or browse some potential integration / application ideas here.

To get started, all you need is a free Shoeboxed account (if you don’t have one already, get one here). Within the Account & Settings page, you can request a token and get started right away.
