Automated PDF Bank Statement Parser and Google Sheets Synchronizer
Pain Points (Public)
Financial teams and small business owners frequently receive monthly banking summaries solely as locked, multi-page PDF documents. Manually copying individual line items into spreadsheets is labor-intensive and prone to data entry errors, especially when parsing varying column alignments, negative amount formats, and distinct transaction categories such as ACH transfers, POS card charges, and account maintenance fees.
Suggested Approach (Public)
Build an automated ingestion pipeline using table-extraction engines (e.g., pdfplumber, Camelot, or OCR) to extract transaction rows from irregular PDF statement tables, normalize dates and debit/credit balances, auto-tag transactions by type, and append structured records directly into target Google Sheets using the Google Sheets API.
