Features

BankStatementConverters.ai. BankStatementConverters.ai is a statement converter that markets AI extraction. Upload PDF, JPG, or PNG up to 50MB, including password-protected PDFs. Output is CSV, XLSX, or JSON. Bulk upload exists. Paid plans add API access. The product is statements, not a general OCR suite.

Photo to Text. Photo to Text converts bank statements to Excel and also does photo to text, invoices, receipts, and Word. We do not call the product AI. You edit the grid in the browser. There is no public API.

Use them for statement-only CSV dumps. Use Photo to Text when the next file is not a statement.

Pricing

BankStatementConverters.ai. Anonymous free pages every day, more after signup, subscribed from $15/month with 500+ pages and API. Exact anonymous page counts are marketing-metered; we only repeat what the pricing cards state.
