Extract data from PDFs into an online database
Upload invoices, statements, price lists or application forms. Tell Trunao what to keep, and AI builds a list with one row per record, ready to search, share and report on.
PDF and photo reading needs the $120/user/year plan (AI included). About $0.02 per page.How PDF extraction works
-
01
Upload the PDF
Scanned or digital, one file or many pages. Each page is read separately.
-
02
Say what to keep
"One row per invoice: vendor, date, total." Trunao suggests columns and types.
-
03
Check and use the list
Open the list, fix anything flagged, then share it or add more PDFs later.
What people extract
Invoices and bills
Vendor, date, line items and totals for accounts payable.
Bank and card statements
Transactions as rows, ready to categorise and report.
Supplier price lists
Product codes and prices in one list you can search.
Applications and CVs
Applicant details from forms or resumes, one row each.
More than a PDF converter
A converter gives you a file. Trunao gives you a database your team works in.
- Prompts, not templates. Describe what you need; no zone mapping.
- Source links. Each value points back to its page.
- Add more later. Import next month's PDFs into the same list.
- AI Formula columns. Add a category or summary that AI fills per row.
- Share and report. Permissions per column, reports and charts.
