What Is Dokutrak?
Dokutrak is an invoice extraction tool designed to do one thing well: pull every invoice out of your email inbox. You connect your Gmail or Outlook account, Dokutrak scans your emails, identifies invoices from hundreds of known senders, and packages them into a clean ZIP file with a CSV summary.
There is no monthly subscription. You pay once per scan — $19.99 for up to 100 invoices, $39.99 for up to 500, or $79.99 for unlimited. Most users run one or two scans per year, right before handing documents over to their accountant.
What Is iPaidThat?
iPaidThat is a comprehensive accounting and invoicing platform built primarily for the French market. It handles invoice collection from emails, but also lets you create invoices, manage payments, track expenses, and connect directly to accounting software like Sage, Cegid, or QuickBooks.
It is a full-featured business tool — and priced accordingly. Plans start at €59/month for a single user and go up to €249/month for teams. If you need an all-in-one accounting suite, iPaidThat delivers. If you just need to collect invoices, it is significantly more than what you need.
Pricing Comparison
This is where the two products diverge most. Dokutrak charges a flat, one-time fee per scan. iPaidThat charges a recurring monthly subscription.
Dokutrak Pricing
- Solo — $19.99 one-time (up to 100 invoices)
- Pro — $39.99 one-time (up to 500 invoices)
- Business — $79.99 one-time (unlimited invoices)
iPaidThat Pricing
- Starter — €59/month = €708/year
- Pro — €119/month = €1,428/year
- Business — €249/month = €2,988/year
For the same 500 invoices, Dokutrak costs $39.99 per year. iPaidThat costs €708 per year. That is 17x more expensive for the invoice collection part alone.

Who Should Choose Dokutrak?
- You just need to collect your invoices once or twice a year to hand them to your accountant
- You do not want a monthly subscription for something you use a few times per year
- You manage multiple companies and need invoices separated by entity
- You want the cheapest option for the specific task of extracting invoices from email
Who Should Choose iPaidThat?
- You need a full accounting and invoicing suite that handles everything from invoice creation to payment tracking
- You are based in France and want a French-first tool with local accounting integrations
- You need to create and send invoices, not just collect the ones you receive
- You are willing to pay €59+/month for an all-in-one platform
Our Honest Take
iPaidThat is a solid product. It does far more than Dokutrak — invoicing, accounting, expense management, payment tracking. If you need all of that, iPaidThat is a good choice, especially if you operate in France where it integrates well with local accounting tools.
But if your only goal is to collect the invoices sitting in your inbox and hand them to your accountant, iPaidThat is overkill. You would be paying €708/year for a feature set you mostly do not use. Dokutrak does the extraction part for $39.99 — that is 17x cheaper for the same result.
The two tools are not really competitors. They serve different needs. Pick the one that matches yours.
FAQ
Can I use both Dokutrak and iPaidThat?
Yes. Some users use iPaidThat for invoicing and accounting, and Dokutrak for the annual invoice extraction because it is faster and cheaper for that specific task. The two tools do not conflict.
Is iPaidThat required for e-invoicing in France (2026)?
No. The French e-invoicing mandate (facturation electronique) requires businesses to use a certified platform to send and receive e-invoices, but iPaidThat is not the only option. Many accounting tools and dedicated platforms handle e-invoicing compliance. Dokutrak focuses on extracting existing invoices from email, which is a separate need.
Does Dokutrak replace iPaidThat?
Not entirely. Dokutrak replaces the invoice collection feature of iPaidThat at a fraction of the cost. But if you use iPaidThat for invoicing, accounting, or payment management, Dokutrak does not cover those features. It depends on which parts of iPaidThat you actually use.
