Technical Explanation
NeatPass processes your documents entirely on your iPhone. The PDF never leaves your device. Only file hashes are sent to our server for cryptographic signing, which Apple requires for all Wallet passes. We never see your actual ticket data, just the hashes we sign. The signed pass is returned immediately. We don't store anything.

About the Developer

Justin Lanfermann
I'm Justin, a solo iOS developer in Munich. I built NeatPass because I was sick of fumbling for boarding passes at airport gates and concert venues. Every existing app either uploaded my documents to servers I didn't trust, charged monthly subscriptions, or made me manually type in ticket details. So I built an ML pipeline that runs entirely on your iPhone. Your documents never leave your device. $4.99 once. Done. NeatPass is the app I wanted to exist.
Press-Ready Quotes
I built NeatPass because I wanted a ticket converter I could actually trust. Every document stays on your iPhone, the ML runs locally, no uploads, no tracking.
I'm tired of apps that cost $10/year for something you use twice a month. $4.99 once. Done.
Everyone knows the feeling, you're at the gate, the PDF is buried in your email, you're holding up the line. That's what NeatPass fixes.
No account required, no tracking, no cloud uploads. Just open your PDF in NeatPass and add it to Wallet.
Got a PDF with multiple tickets? NeatPass detects each one automatically and creates separate passes, no manual splitting.
From PDF to Wallet in about 20 seconds. No manual typing, no form filling, just import and go.

"All you do is import a PDF and it locally on device uses AI to parse it and create a pass for you. Knowing that the AI processing is happening locally can be a relief."
