CLUSTER THEM-CONVERTS-DOCUMENTS · 8 ENTRIES · EARLIEST ENTRY 2021-12-23

Mobile document scanning apps

This cluster consists of mobile apps that scan documents, receipts, and notes, converting them to PDF or editable text via OCR, with features like batch scanning and folder organization. Six dated entries appear before the index start, scattered from July 2013 to July 2026, showing a thin and irregular history with no clear growth pattern. The three traction leaders—dastavault, Document Scanner | Scan to PDF, and Archiv—all show zero stars, indicating minimal user engagement. Given the sparse and uneven timeline, the cluster's dated history is too thin to read a meaningful shape from.

Each bar is the month a member carries, which is a creation date where the source published one and a crawl date otherwise. Nothing in the index was found before 11 August 2026, and coverage broadened sharply on 14–15 August, so a bar from then on reports how much we found that month, not how much was built; an earlier bar reports how far back a member's own source dated it — not how long we have been watching.
