AI Extracts Any Document into a Structured Table — You Specify Exactly What You Need.

For documents with a table, we extract it directly. For receipts, forms, or scans without one, AI extracts exactly the fields you name. Also supports To Word for the original layout, or extract text from any image for a plain-text copy.

No Manual Entry

18x faster than manual entry, 99% accurate, zero setup.

Handwriting

Reads handwriting, stamps, and low-quality scans.

Any Document

AI Can Read PDF, invoice, receipt, or screenshot.

Compute&Infer

Calculates totals, infers what's not printed.

Works for Any Document, Any Industry

Define the columns you need — AI extracts matching data from any document into a structured table. From invoices and bank statements to app screenshots and payroll records.

Bank Statements

Stop manually copying transaction records. Define your columns and let AI pull every entry from any bank statement — PDF, screenshot, or scan. This bank statement to Excel workflow works across multi-page PDFs and screenshots alike.

e.g. Date / Description / Deposit / Withdrawal / Balance
  • Handles multi-page statements and merges all transactions into one table.
  • Works for credit card statements, payslips, and financial reports.
  • Export to Excel or CSV — ready for reconciliation or analysis.

Invoices & Receipts

Upload a stack of invoices or receipts and extract exactly the fields you need — no template setup, no manual entry. From invoice to Excel or receipt to Excel, the same upload works for both.

e.g. Vendor / Invoice No. / Date / Amount / Tax / Status
  • Works across different invoice layouts and formats — no fixed template needed.
  • Amounts, dates, and tax fields are automatically standardized on output.
  • Export to Excel, CSV, or JSON for direct ERP or accounting integration.

App Screenshots

A payment screenshot isn't a table. It's just an amount, a name, and a date scattered across the screen. This screenshot to table workflow still gets you exactly the fields you need, regardless of the app.

e.g. Venmo, PayPal, WeChat Pay, Amazon, Shopee, Robinhood
  • Works across 150+ apps — payment, e-commerce, ride-hailing, trading, and more.
  • No manual retyping of amounts, dates, or order numbers from a phone screenshot.
  • Batch process screenshots from multiple apps into one merged table.

Handwriting and form data extraction

Handwriting & Forms

Paper forms, survey sheets, handwritten records — define the fields you need and AI digitizes them into a clean, structured table. This scan to Excel workflow reads handwriting too, not just printed text.

e.g. Patient Name / Date / Symptoms / Doctor / Prescription
  • Accurately reads messy handwriting, cursive script, and low-quality scans.
  • Recognizes checkboxes, stamps, and signatures — not just plain text.
  • Ideal for medical records, field surveys, registration forms, and historical archives.

Timesheets & Payslips

Weekly timesheets, payslips, certified payroll — pull hours, rates, and totals into one payroll-ready sheet without retyping a single row.

e.g. Employee / Week Ending / Hours / Rate / Gross Pay
  • Reads handwritten timesheets and scanned payslips, not just clean digital exports.
  • Works across hourly, salaried, and certified payroll formats.
  • Batch a whole team's timesheets into one payroll summary.

Up and Running in 3 Steps

No training, no templates, no setup. Just upload and define what you need.

1

Upload Your Document

Drop in any image, PDF, or screenshot. Supports printed text, handwriting, scans, and mixed-content documents.

2

Define Your Columns

Type the column names you want to extract, like Vendor, Date, Amount. Your column names become the exact headers of your table. Or skip this step and let AI auto-detect the structure.

3

Export & Use

Download your structured Excel, CSV, or JSON. Data is cleaned and formatted, so it's ready to use with no manual rework.

Need to keep the original layout instead?

Switch to To Word mode. Upload any document and get a fully editable Word file with the original formatting preserved. No column setup needed.

3 Ways to Get Documents In

Not everyone doing the uploading is the same person doing the reviewing. Pick whichever fits how your documents actually arrive.

Direct Upload

Drag files straight in yourself, or snap a photo with your phone or webcam. This is the fastest path when you're the one holding the documents and want results right away.

Collection Link

Share a link so clients, vendors, or coworkers can submit files themselves. No account is needed on their end, and everything lands in one place for you to process.

Email Inbox

Forward or CC a dedicated address, and attachments (or the email itself) get picked up automatically. This works well for invoices and receipts that already arrive by email.

Need Documents From Someone Else?
Send a Link, Not a Login

Generate a shareable link and let clients, vendors, or field staff upload documents directly. No account needed on their end.

Collection Link

Generate a link like /c/xxxx and send it to whoever has the documents. They enter a verification code, land on a page with your name and instructions on it, and upload images, PDF, Word, or TXT files, or snap a photo from their phone. No registration, no login, no app to install.

e.g. Collect invoices from vendors, expense receipts from employees, or signed contracts from clients
  • No account needed on their end. They open the link, enter the code, and upload straight from a browser or a phone camera, no app to install.
  • Files land in your queue automatically, tagged with an optional label so you always know where each one came from.
  • Auto-process on arrival, and built for ongoing collection. Bind a template so submissions extract themselves, then toggle the link on or off or refresh the code any time.

Documents Already Arrive by Email?
Forward It, Don't Upload It

Every account gets a dedicated inbox address. Forward or CC it and attachments get processed automatically. No login required.

Email Inbox

Every account gets its own dedicated email address. Share it with suppliers and clients, or just forward your own invoices and receipts to it. The built-in email parser can read attachments, the email body text, or both, so a supplier who pastes numbers straight into the email still gets picked up.

  • Auto-process on arrival, tied to a template. Bind a template and mail starts extracting itself the moment it lands, no need to open the app.
  • Reads the email body as a table too. No attachment needed if the numbers are just typed into the email itself.
  • Accepts images, PDF, Word, and TXT files, and handles multi-page PDFs up to 1,000 pages and 50MB without splitting them up.
  • A sender whitelist keeps it clean. Approve specific addresses or a whole domain, so only mail you actually want gets processed.
  • Encrypted PDFs unlock themselves. Save the passwords you use most, like for password-protected bank statements, and you're notified if one still needs attention.

Already in Google Sheets?
Bring AI Extraction Into Your Spreadsheet

Install our add-on from the Workspace Marketplace. It runs the same AI engine that powers the web app, right inside the spreadsheet you already work in, and extracts data from any document directly into your cells.

Sheets Add-on

The same AI extraction engine, now embedded as a Google Sheets sidebar. Define the columns you want, upload a batch of documents, and extracted data lands directly in your active sheet. It's the PDF to Google Sheets pipeline, without leaving the sidebar. No copy-pasting, no tab switching, no re-uploading.

e.g. Upload 50 invoices → Vendor / Date / Amount / Tax → one unified table
  • Save your column templates. Define extraction rules once, then reuse them on any batch for consistent output without re-configuring.
  • No tab switching, no re-uploading. Upload from the sidebar, and results land in your active sheet, so your workflow never leaves Google Sheets.
  • Results where your team already works. Your spreadsheet is already shared, so extracted data appears right there. No file exports, no email attachments needed.

Already Built a Workflow?
Skip the UI Entirely

A public REST API lets teams call extraction directly from their own pipeline. No browser involved.

Built for Real Pipelines

Upload a document, kick off processing, and pull back structured JSON. It's the same three calls whether you're wiring it into a nightly cron job, a serverless function, or your own internal tool.

  • Clean JSON responses. Structured field/value data, not a spreadsheet file, ready to feed straight into your own database or app.
  • Webhooks for completion. Register a callback URL and get notified the moment a batch finishes. No polling loop required.
  • Idempotency keys, cursor pagination, per-code docs. The kind of details you'd expect from an API meant to be depended on, not bolted on.

Everything You Need to Stop Manual Entry

Every step of your document workflow is handled, from deciding what to extract to cleaning up the result afterward. That's what real data entry automation actually looks like, without any rekeying or manual formatting.

Define Your Columns

Type the column names you want, and AI extracts matching data from any document to build a table with your exact headers.

Reads Anything

AI accurately recognizes printed text, messy handwriting, stamps, checkboxes, and signatures, no matter the document quality or format — the same engine behind our PDF OCR.

Batch Processing

Upload multiple files at once, and AI extracts the same columns from each one, with every result landing in a single table ready to export. Works the same way for batch OCR across a folder of scanned documents.

Clean Output, Ready to Use

Dates, amounts, and IDs are automatically standardized and formatted on export, so there's no manual cleanup needed afterward.

Layout to Word

Need to keep the original layout? Convert any document into a fully editable Word file with the formatting preserved.

Any Format In, Any Format Out

Accepts PDF, JPG, PNG, WebP, and screenshots, and exports to Excel, CSV, JSON, or Word, so it plugs into any workflow directly.

Calculate & Infer, Not Just Copy

Need a line total or tax computed on the fly? Write the math right into your column name. Need a category the document never printed? AI infers it from context, all in the same pass as extraction.

Verify at a Glance

Click any extracted cell to see exactly where that value came from on the original document, so you don't have to re-read the whole file to confirm the AI got it right.

Extracted Fields Scattered Across Pages?
Merge Them Back Into One Row

A name on one page, an ID number on another, a signature on a third. Each page still gets extracted on its own, so the record isn't complete until they're put back together. Multi-Page Merge decides which pages belong together, then fills in every field from wherever it actually appears.

Multi-Page Merge

Configure once per template, using whichever grouping principle matches how your records actually get scattered across uploads.

e.g. Name on page 1, ID number on page 2, signature on page 3 → 1 complete row
  • Sequential Merge tracks one field as it goes. A new record starts the moment that field's value changes. Fits an invoice number that only prints on each invoice's first page.
  • Match by Value ignores order entirely. Uploads sharing the same value on a chosen column become one record. Fits files that can arrive shuffled, like a collection link or a forwarded email with several attachments.
  • Fixed Count groups by position, not content. Every set number of uploads in a row becomes one record. Fits records built from a known number of pages with no common field to match on.

Merge Conflict Handling
Keep All, Split Keep First Keep Last Combine Into One
Every 3 files in a row are combined into one record, no matter what's in them. If files disagree on a column, all the different values are combined together instead of picking just one.
Example: your lease template is always 3 pages photographed in order, tenant info, property and rent, then signatures. Set this to 3, and every 3 pages you upload become one row.

Frequently Asked Questions

Everything you need to know before you get started.

How does Custom Column Extraction work?

Type the column names you want in the input field, for example, Vendor, Date, Amount, Tax. AI will locate and extract the matching data from your document and fill it into the table. The column names you enter become the exact headers of your final Excel output. No templates, no configuration. Just describe what you need.

What if I don't know what columns to define?

You don't have to define anything. Skip the column input and let AI automatically analyze your document, identify the key fields, and generate a structured table on its own. This is a good starting point. You can review what AI detected and refine your column names from there for future extractions.

Can it handle handwriting and low-quality scans?

Yes. Powered by vision large models, the AI understands content semantically rather than just scanning pixels. It accurately reads messy handwriting, cursive script, and low-quality scans. It also recognizes non-text elements like checkboxes, stamps, and signatures that traditional OCR tools typically miss.

Is my data safe?

Yes. All file transfers are encrypted via HTTPS, and your documents are stored with encryption at rest. Guest uploads are permanently deleted within 24 hours. Logged-in users can configure automatic deletion of uploaded files at any time. Your data is never used for model training. What you upload stays yours.

What formats can I upload and export?

You can upload PDF, JPG, PNG, WebP, AVIF, and webpage screenshots. For output, you can export to Excel (XLSX), CSV, JSON, or Word, whichever fits your workflow best.

Is it free to use?

Yes, there's a daily free quota so you can try the full feature set without any commitment. Once you exceed the free quota, pricing is pay-as-you-go with no subscription required. You only pay for what you actually convert.

How do I know the extracted data is accurate?

Click any extracted cell and it highlights exactly where that value came from on the original document, so you can confirm it at a glance instead of re-reading the whole file. For documents where accuracy really matters, Review Mode adds a second, more thorough pass with this same source-highlighting turned on for every field.

Can I use this from Google Sheets?

Yes. The official Google Sheets Add-on runs the same AI extraction engine as the web app inside a sidebar. Upload documents, define your columns, and results land directly in your active sheet. No exporting files or copy-pasting between tabs.

Is there an API?

Yes. A public REST API is available on paid plans for uploading documents, triggering processing, and pulling back structured JSON results, plus webhooks so your system gets notified when a batch finishes instead of having to poll. See the API documentation for details.

Is this better than traditional OCR?

Traditional OCR just recognizes characters on a page. It can't tell a subtotal from a total, or match handwriting to the right form field. This uses vision-capable AI models that understand document structure and context, so it correctly interprets messy layouts, handwriting, and non-standard formats that trip up OCR-only tools, and extracts exactly the fields you name instead of dumping raw text you have to clean up yourself.

Can it extract data from invoices, receipts, and other business documents?

Yes. It's used for invoices, receipts, bank statements, purchase orders, packing slips, timesheets, contracts, and dozens of other document types. Any document with data you need pulled out, whether it's printed, handwritten, or a phone screenshot.

Can it calculate totals or infer information that isn't printed on the document?

Yes. Write the math directly into a column name, like Line Total (Qty × Unit Price), and AI computes it during extraction, not after. It can also infer values the document never states outright, like categorizing a receipt by type based on context. Both happen in the same pass as extraction.

How do I collect documents from clients, vendors, or coworkers?

Two ways. Share a Collection Link so anyone can upload directly, no account needed on their end. Or forward mail to your dedicated Email Inbox address, and attachments are picked up automatically. Both can be set to auto-process with a bound template.

Can it handle password-protected PDFs?

Yes. Upload one directly and enter the password, or for documents that arrive by email, save your commonly-used passwords in settings ahead of time and they're tried automatically against incoming encrypted attachments.

Can I get the original layout back instead of a table?

Yes. Switch to To Word mode and any document, PDF, image, or scan, is converted into a fully editable Word file with the original formatting preserved. No column setup needed.
