Can I manually label emails for ExpenseBot to pick up?

Yes! You can manually apply the "ExpenseBot" label to any email in Gmail and the scanner will pick it up on the next scan.

How it works:

1. Open Gmail (desktop or mobile)
2. Find the email you want ExpenseBot to process
3. Apply the "ExpenseBot" label to it
4. The next Gmail scan will automatically find and process it

When to use this:

• The AI scanner missed a receipt email you want processed
• You have an older email that wasn't caught by the automatic scan
• You want to ensure a specific email gets processed
• You're using Outlook or iPhone Mail and want to label emails for processing

Labels the scanner looks for:

• ExpenseBot - Manually applied by you, always processed
• ExpenseBot-Potential - Applied by AI when it detects a likely receipt

Once processed, the email gets a "Processed" label so it won't be picked up again.

Use the same label for missed income emails too. If a creator-platform sale notification, peer-payment receipt, or any other income email didn't get auto-detected, just apply the same ExpenseBot label. The scanner runs every labeled email through its income classifier first — if it's income, the row lands on your Income tab and the email is relabeled ExpenseBot-Income (so you can tell what happened at a glance). If it's an expense, the email flows into the normal receipt pipeline. You don't need to know in advance what kind of email it is — one label, ExpenseBot, handles both.

You don't need to apply ExpenseBot-Income yourself — that label is what we apply after we classify and write the income row. It's a status marker, not an input.
