Cabinet Scan turns the letters, invoices, and contracts piling up on your iPhone document scanner that names, summarizes and files your paperwork by itself; then builds a private, on-device picture of your life: what you're paying, what renews, what needs you this week, and answers to questions about your own files. Local-first. No account. Turn on one optional setting and it adds AI summaries, a personal knowledge graph ("LifeGraph"), & a chat you can ask questions of your own documents & life.
Hey Product Hunt 👋
I built Cabinet Scan because I moved to Germany and drowned in paper, such as Nebenkostenabrechnungen, Kündigungsfristen, insurance renewals, tax forms, each one demanding I notice a date buried on page 2 or pay for it later. Scanning apps could turn the pile into PDFs. None of them told me what was actually in the pile, or what I still owed a response to.
So Cabinet Scan scans a document, reads it on-device, gives it a real name and a short summary, and files it; no account needed, works fully offline. If you turn on AI analysis, it goes further: it builds a private knowledge graph of the people, accounts, and obligations across your documents, so “who's my landlord" or "what renews this month" has an actual answer, and flags the stuff worth a second look before it becomes a problem.
The AI backend is something I run myself; it's stateless (no database, no accounts), keeps only anonymous load logs, and is hosted in the EU. On-device mode needs none of it and works completely offline.
It's free, no ads, no subscriptions, still actively worked on. Would love your feedback, especially if you've ever missed a deadline buried in a letter you meant to read later.
