Why does it need cloud AI to read invoices? Basic foss OCR can do this very well, so too the most basic local AI. Wrangling claude to read reciepts is using a tomahawk to kill ants.

Can i point it at a local AI server? Can i feed it a pdf that i make myself using my own OCR?

They’ll fix that two Fridays from now. But deploy on Monday. Never Friday.
