ThingzSafe

Household and Pro

Check receipts, photos and documents

Ask ChatGPT to inspect saved photos and documents, such as receipts.

This page says “ChatGPT” as the example. Claude and Google Gemini connect to ThingzSafe in the same way and work the same way once connected.

Ask for a specific check

Find my camera equipment, including Parts and Contents. Inspect its saved photos and documents. Tell me which Things have a matching receipt, which documents appear mismatched, and which Things remain uncertain or unexamined. Read every PDF page. Do not change anything.

Photo/document reading requires its own permission. ChatGPT first identifies the Things, lists their attached files, then reads the selected content. An attachment on a Part or Content item belongs to that child record; selecting only its parent does not automatically inspect the children's files.

What can be read?

Format What ChatGPT receives
JPEG, PNG, WebP An image prepared for inspection, with orientation corrected and a maximum 1,800-pixel edge
PDF, including scans Page images, up to two pages per request; further pages are read using continuation
TXT, CSV, HTML Text; HTML scripts/styles and markup are removed
DOCX Main document text; page layout, headers/footers and embedded images are not inspected
XLSX, RTF and other unsupported formats An explicit unsupported-format result

Thing photos, document attachments, Event files and recognised embedded loan/disposal file references can be listed. This does not provide structured loan/rental queries.

Interpret the result

Ask ChatGPT to count Things with receipts, once per Thing, not the number of receipt files. A useful result separates:

  • Confirmed receipt or proof-of-purchase matches.
  • Purchase documents that appear to refer to a different item.
  • No receipt found among all successfully inspected attachments, including Things with no saved attachments.
  • Uncertain or unexamined Things, with the reason.

A filename containing “receipt” is a clue, not proof. A missing, unreadable, unsupported or oversized attachment is not evidence that no receipt exists. An unclear image may need you to open the original or provide a clearer copy. The attachment reader does not itself classify receipts or save its conclusions back to the inventory.

Large checks

ChatGPT may work through several batches. Lists and multi-page PDFs have continuation fields. If a limit is reached, it should explain which Things or pages remain and resume after the limit permits. It should not describe a partial inspection as complete.

File access sends the retrieved content to ChatGPT. Use the permission only for a household and files you want to analyse there.
