Accountant workflow

Convert client statements for accounting review

When clients send PDFs instead of transaction exports, StatementForge creates structured rows accountants can review before sending data onward.

Handle PDF-only clients

Create a structured export when clients do not provide CSV or bank-feed access.

Trace source statements

Bulk exports preserve statement names so rows can be traced back to the source file.

Privacy-first conversion

Statement contents are processed in the browser, reducing exposure during file conversion.

Before you export

  • Works best with downloadable text-based PDF statements. Local image-to-text can read the first 8 scanned pages and needs manual review.
  • Always review exported rows before importing them into accounting software.
  • StatementForge is not a bank integration. It converts statement files that you provide.

Can accountants use this with client statements?

Yes, as long as your own client data handling policies allow browser-only local conversion.

Does StatementForge store client PDFs?

No. Statement file contents are not uploaded for conversion.

Can I export accounting formats?

Yes. Reviewed rows can be exported to accounting-oriented formats supported by the app.

Does it replace accountant review?

No. It reduces extraction work, but professional review is still needed.
