wtfile for Windows
Rename scanned documents automatically
Scanners and scan apps produce scan0042.pdf and Scan 2026-10-03.pdf. wtfile Pro reads the text in each scan and names it like any other document: date, sender, type and total.
Free for 25 renames, plus a Pro trial on 25 files. No account, no card, no subscription.

How it reads scans
wtfile uses the text recognition built into Windows, so scans are read on your PC and never uploaded. It reads the languages installed in Windows.
Clean, straight scans read best. A faint or skewed scan gets a lower confidence score and waits in Review instead of getting a wrong name.
Free and Pro
Reading scans is a Pro feature. Free renames PDFs and documents that already contain text. You can try Pro, scans included, on 25 files from inside the app.

Fragen
Do I need special scanner software?
No. Point your scanner or scan app at a folder wtfile watches, and new scans are renamed as they arrive.
What about photos taken with my phone camera?
Camera photos are named by the date they were taken, like any other photo. For paper documents, use a scan app (most phones have one built in): it saves a PDF, which wtfile reads.
Is it a subscription?
No. Pro is a one-time purchase with free updates for life.
