Built for the statement pile bookkeepers actually receive
Clients send PDF statements, not logins. Turning them into ledger-ready rows, provably complete, is the job this converter was designed around.
The shape of the work
- Clients supply statement PDFs by email or portal; direct bank feeds and CSV exports are not on offer.
- Work arrives in bursts: a new client's backlog, a year-end box of statements, then quiet weeks.
- Every row you import is your name on the reconciliation; a silently missing transaction costs hours to find later.
- The same seven UK high-street and app banks cover most client accounts.
How the converter fits it
- Per-row verification: running balances and the opening-to-closing equation are checked on every document, and anything unverified is labelled, not smuggled into your export.
- Statements parse in the browser and are never uploaded, which keeps you inside your confidentiality undertakings without a vendor data-processing agreement to assess.
- Credits (£9 for 10 exports, £29 for 50) never expire, so the January rush and the quiet spring cost the same per statement.
- Exports are shaped for the imports you actually run: Xero, QuickBooks, and FreeAgent.
What it will not do for you
- Seven certified banks; statements from any other bank are refused with the reason stated, not guessed at.
- Scanned or photographed statements are refused; the free text-layer checker tells you in seconds which kind you have.
- No transaction categorisation. The ledger judgement stays yours.
