Overview

ScanStatement is a web-based service designed to extract transaction data from bank statement PDFs and convert it into clean Excel or CSV files. It eliminates the need for manual re-typing of transactions at month-end, saving hours for bookkeepers and accountants. The platform supports PDFs from any bank worldwide, including those that are scanned or photographed, using OCR to recognize text. It automatically structures the data into rows with date, description, signed amount, and balance, and performs a reconciliation check to ensure the opening balance plus transactions equals the closing balance. Users can review and edit any extracted row inline before export, with the reconciliation badge updating live. The service is privacy-focused, processing files in memory without storing them, and only retaining the last four digits of the account number. It offers tiered pricing based on page volume, with a free tier for small-scale testing and paid plans for solo practitioners and firms.
