Papers turns a paper stack into a named archive
This forthcoming Mac app scans a stack of paper, separates it into documents, names the files, and sorts them into folders.
Field notes
The workflow combines scanner input, live recognition, orientation correction, duplicate-sheet detection, and a confirmation step before filing. The page gives a concrete test result—fourteen sheets became eleven named documents—and lists eight destination folders covering areas such as health, banks and contracts, government, and purchases. Naming can incorporate document type, person, organization, and period, while unknown components are omitted rather than guessed.
