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.

What does a bank statement parser do?

It reads statement text and turns transaction lines into structured rows.

Does the parser work with every bank?

It is built to handle many layouts, but banks vary. Review the output before exporting.

Does it use categories?

No. The parser focuses on source transaction data rather than guessing spending categories.

Can I paste text instead of uploading a PDF?

Yes. You can paste copied statement text into the manual text area.
