Synthetic data. No financial file is analysed.

02 / Planned workflow

From PDF to a checked export.

The planned workflow: prepare the statement, review the rows, choose the file you need.

01

Start with the right document

A native PDF, a scan or a mixed document. Check pages, account and currency before extracting.

02

Review the transaction rows

Keep debit and credit signs, dates, descriptions and source references visible. Resolve ambiguity rather than guessing.

03

Export for the next task

Excel for review and analysis; CSV for a defined import schema. Check the receiving software’s required columns.

For the work that happens after the PDF.

Bookkeeping preparation

Organise statement rows before accounting import. An export does not replace the ledger or reconcile it automatically.

Cash-flow analysis

Work with dates and numeric amounts, while keeping accounts and currencies separate.

Historical records

Prepare older monthly statements when a usable native bank export is not available.

03 / Official documentation

Sometimes, you already have the right tool.

Check the bank’s own export first. A specialised converter is not always necessary.

01

Your bank’s CSV

Often the best starting point if the required period and columns are available. Availability varies by bank.

02

Tabula

A free, open-source option for selecting tables in text-based PDFs. Scans require a different method.

Official documentation
03

Excel Power Query

The PDF connector can import tables in supported versions. The document still needs review and cleanup.

FAQ

Your questions about bank statement PDFs.

Practical answers, including what this website does today.

Can I convert my own statement here?

Not yet. The interactive statement is synthetic; there is no upload or extraction. You can send an access request through the form, without creating an account or purchasing immediate access.

Are native PDFs and scanned statements planned?

Both are envisaged, including multipage documents. Coverage, file limits and processing quality still need technical validation; no universal bank compatibility is promised.

What would the output contain?

Dates, descriptions, debits, credits and available balances, with a review of ambiguous or missing values. Excel and CSV are planned. A source value and a calculated check must remain distinguishable.

Does a matching balance certify the statement?

No. Opening balance plus credits minus debits is an arithmetic check. Two errors can cancel each other out. It does not establish authenticity, detect fraud reliably, or certify accounting compliance.

What about duplicates or multiple currencies?

Identical-looking transactions may be legitimate. They must not be silently deleted. Different accounts and currencies should stay separate; no exchange rate is invented.

What happens to my financial files?

This website does not accept them. The future processing providers, storage, retention and security arrangements are not yet defined. No promise about those future arrangements is made here.

Can I buy the monthly plan?

No. The price is a non-billable research hypothesis. Requesting access records your interest; it does not subscribe you, charge you or provide immediate product access.
