StatementScan

What it is

StatementScan converts bank statements in PDF, scan or photo format into editable Excel or CSV spreadsheets. Digital PDFs with extractable text are read in your browser without uploading; scanned documents and photos are sent to Microsoft Azure for OCR processing. The tool includes a balance reconciliation check that compares extracted transactions against the closing balance printed on your statement before download. You can edit transactions in the preview table, and the balance check updates as you make corrections. No account or subscription is required.

Questions from the bench

Is StatementScan free?

Yes. There is no conversion fee, account or subscription. Digital PDFs are processed on your device. For scans, the maximum file size after processing is 4 MiB, though practical capacity depends on your file and device.

Where does my bank statement go?

Digital PDFs with extractable text are read in your browser without being uploaded. Scanned PDFs and photos are sent to Microsoft Azure for OCR processing. The application handles requests in memory without saving documents to disk or a database, though Azure retains OCR input and results for 24 hours.

Will you sell my files or use them to train AI?

No. StatementScan does not sell your statement files or use them to train models. Scans use Azure services for processing, with provider retention and policies detailed on the privacy page.

Can I correct a transaction before downloading?

Yes. You can edit cells in the preview table and the balance check updates as you go. You should check each correction against the original statement.

Does a matching balance mean every field is correct?

No. A matching balance means the extracted amounts reconcile with the available balances, but dates and descriptions still need manual checking. Errors in opposite directions can cancel each other out.
