Converting a United Kingdombank statement from PDF into a clean spreadsheet shouldn't mean retyping rows or wrestling with copy-paste that scrambles the columns. Upload your statement and every transaction is extracted into tidy, dated rows — money in, money out and a running balance — ready to open in Excel or import into Xero.
What sets it apart is the reconciliation check. Before you download anything, the opening balance plus credits minus debits is compared against the printed closing balance. If a row was dropped or a figure misread, the statement is flagged — so the numbers you hand to a client or an accountant actually tie out, in GBP (£), down to the last line.
It works across United Kingdom banks and account types — personal and business, high-street and app-only — and reads scanned or photographed statements through OCR, not just digital PDFs. Files are processed and then deleted, and never used to train AI. Pick your bank below for a step-by-step guide, or head straight to the converter.
