 Qipit- Do you keep a wallet or
glove box full of crumpled receipts for expense reports? Is your wrist cramped
again from copying notes from a whiteboard or your lab partner? Have a document
that you need to get to someone right now and there’s no fax machine at one end
of the equation? Maybe you’re just a plain lazy student that just wants a copy
of the guy’s notes that’s sitting next to you…?
Qipit has you covered. Read on…
Qipit is a
fascinatingly simple solution to any of these situations and countless
predicaments. Nothing needs to be installed on your device- if you have a
camera phone and can send an email, no other equipment is needed. All you have to do is take an image with your
cameraphone- printed documents, whiteboards, handwritten notes and/or drawings-
whatever. Send the image to Qipit via email, your online account or right from
your mobile and it will be sent back to you as a digital copy in the form of a
PDF. Create an online account and store all of your paper documents as digital
copies. For easy archiving, you can even tag your Qipit documents for searching
and sorting. With your online account, it’s dead simple to publish and share
your documents on the web within mere moments.
The service is
absolutely free and completely painless to setup and use. Here’s a video of the
whole process. From actual start to finish, it’s under 3 minutes to take an
image of text, fire it off to Qipit for conversion into a PDF and receive the
PDF to your inbox. Absolutely brilliant and couldn’t be more simple. Have a
look at the video- then test it out yourself. You don’t even need to sign up
for an account, when you email your image to

if there’s no account associated with your email address, it will be created
for you on the spot and your PDF will be fired back that that address.
So watch the video (and enjoy the spot of whimsy in the middle when I pay homage to whatleydude's breakfast jaiku while we wait for the conversion) and then fire off an image to qipit yourself. See first-hand how easy and dead simple this really is- if my 5 month old were two weeks older I could have had her demo this for you...
... just in case this wasn't simple enough for you, all the Shozu'rs out there can rejoice in further sweetening of the pot with Share It. One click interoperability with Qipit. Brilliant.
Edit- As you can see from the comment left by Qipit's Conrad Hametner- I've neglected to report on some other really slick features of the free service. I've completely forgotten that not only can you get great looking black and white copies of your documents sent to you in a flash by sending an image to

, you can get fantastic color copies by sending the email to, what else-

...and the features keep rolling it. This one I had overlooked altogether, but is absolutely one of the best features in my opinion- enter a recipient's fax number in the message of your email, and it will shoot directly to their fax machine. I've been out and about plenty of times where I needed to find a fax machine for some reason or another and have had a miserable time at locating one quickly- never again! Thanks, Qipit!
