What is ConvertBankToExcel?
ConvertBankToExcel converts bank statement PDFs into structured Excel or CSV files. Instead of manually copying transaction data from PDFs, you upload your bank statement and the tool extracts the information automatically. This is useful for anyone who needs to analyse bank data, reconcile accounts, or import transactions into accounting software. The tool handles the tedious extraction work that would otherwise require manual data entry or complex spreadsheet formulas.
