How It Works

Three steps to structured data

1

Send Your Invoices

Upload PDFs, forward invoice emails, or send via API. Any format — scanned, digital, or photographed.

2

AI Extracts Every Field

Vendor, invoice number, date, due date, PO, line items (description, qty, unit price, amount), subtotal, tax, discounts, and total.

3

Data Flows to Accounting

Extracted data lands in [QuickBooks](/guides/extract-invoice-data-to-quickbooks), Google Sheets, your ERP, or any system via Zapier, Make, webhooks, or API.

See It In Action

From document to structured data in minutes

No complex setup. No code required. Just define what you need and let AI do the rest.

1

Create a parser

Give your parser a name and description. Each parser is a reusable extraction template — create one for invoices, another for receipts, another for contracts.

2

Define your schema

Tell the AI exactly what data to extract. Add fields like “invoice number”, “line items”, or “total amount” — choose from 15 field types including tables, objects, and lists.

Connect your tools

Send extracted data wherever you need it — Google Sheets, Zapier, Make, Power Automate, webhooks, or Gmail inbox. One-click setup, no code required.

Why AI Invoice Processing?

If your AP team processes more than 50 invoices per month, manual data entry is your biggest hidden cost. According to IOFM, manual invoice processing costs approximately $6.30 per invoice — covering labor, error correction, and rework time. At 500 invoices per month, that's $3,150 in pure processing costs before accounting for late payment penalties from backlogs.

AI invoice processing eliminates manual data entry entirely. The AI reads each invoice, identifies every field — vendor, amount, line items, dates, PO numbers — and delivers structured data to your accounting system in seconds. Your AP team reviews and approves instead of typing. The result: faster processing, fewer errors, and no more late payments from data entry backlogs.

What Data Can AI Extract from Invoices?

Parsli extracts every standard invoice field: invoice number, invoice date, due date, vendor name and address, billing address, PO number, payment terms, line items (description, quantity, unit price, discount, tax, and total per line), subtotal, tax amount, discount amount, total amount, and bank/payment details. You can also define custom fields — GL codes, project numbers, department names, cost centers — using plain English instructions.

For line item tables, the AI handles multi-row descriptions, merged cells, varying column layouts, and tables that span multiple pages. It reads the table structure the way you would — identifying headers, row boundaries, and totals — regardless of how the vendor formats their invoice.

AI vs Template-Based Invoice Parsing

Traditional invoice parsers require you to create a template for each vendor's invoice layout. You draw zones around fields, set extraction rules, and test. When a vendor changes their invoice design — or you onboard a new vendor — you create a new template. For AP teams working with 50+ vendors, template maintenance becomes a full-time job.

AI-powered invoice processing requires zero per-vendor setup. Parsli's AI understands invoice structure semantically — reading context to identify fields rather than looking at fixed positions. New vendor? Just send the invoice. Format change? The AI adapts automatically. The result: no template backlog, no maintenance overhead, and no delays when onboarding new vendors.
