Extract structured data from scanned invoices, receipts, forms, and statements into clean CSV files. AI-powered OCR works on flatbed scans, phone photos, and faxes without templates or manual data entry.
No templates. No manual data entry. No per-document setup.
Use a flatbed scanner, phone camera, or multifunction printer. Upload the scanned image, photo, or PDF. The AI handles skew, noise, low resolution, and mixed fonts.
The AI reads the scanned document using OCR, detects tables and fields, and extracts values into organized columns. Describe custom fields in plain English using AI columns.
Export your structured data as CSV, Excel, or Google Sheets. Import directly into databases, accounting software, or ERP systems. Process hundreds of documents in batch.
Upload any scanned document — invoice, receipt, form, or statement — and get structured CSV data back immediately.
No templates. No training data. No per-document configuration.
Clean 300 DPI flatbed scans, phone camera photos, faxes, and low-resolution copies. The AI handles skew correction, noise reduction, and contrast enhancement automatically. Works on real-world scan quality, not just clean samples.
Deep learning OCR achieves 95–99% accuracy on clean scans and 85–95% on poor-quality documents. Contextual understanding interprets ambiguous characters by their position in the document, not just pixel patterns.
Automatically detects tables, rows, columns, and cell boundaries within scanned documents. Extracts tabular data into properly structured CSV columns without manual mapping. Handles merged cells and irregular layouts.
Upload a folder of scanned images or a multi-page PDF and process all documents at once. Extract the same fields from hundreds of documents into a single consolidated CSV file. Connect a watched folder for automatic processing.
Export to CSV, Excel (.xlsx), or Google Sheets. Direct Google Drive integration pushes data to a live spreadsheet. REST API returns structured JSON with confidence scores for automated pipelines and database imports.
SOC 2 Type 2 certified and HIPAA compliant. AES-256 encryption at rest, TLS 1.2+ in transit. Scanned documents automatically deleted within 24 hours. Your documents are never used to train AI models.
“We scan hundreds of paper invoices weekly from vendors who refuse to go digital. This tool converts every scan to CSV instantly — no more manual data entry into our accounting system.”
“Even phone photos of crumpled receipts come through accurately. We stopped worrying about scan quality after the first week. The AI handles everything we throw at it.”
“We reduced our document processing time by 90%. What used to take a full-time employee all week now runs automatically in the background.”
“We scan hundreds of paper invoices weekly from vendors who refuse to go digital. This tool converts every scan to CSV instantly — no more manual data entry into our accounting system.”
Accounts payable teams processing scanned paper documents have reduced manual data entry by 85–95% after switching to AI-powered scan-to-CSV conversion.
Paper documents remain a reality for most businesses. Vendors send paper invoices. Employees submit paper receipts. Government agencies mail paper forms. Banks issue paper statements. Every one of these documents contains data that needs to land in a spreadsheet, database, or accounting system. The traditional approach — typing values from paper into a computer — is slow, error-prone, and fundamentally unscalable.
Scan-to-CSV conversion automates this entire pipeline. You scan the paper document using whatever hardware you have available: a dedicated flatbed scanner, the camera on your phone, or the scan function on an office multifunction printer. The scanned image is then processed by AI-powered OCR that goes far beyond traditional character recognition.
Traditional OCR reads characters one at a time by matching pixel patterns against known letter shapes. This works reasonably well for clean, high-resolution scans of printed text. But it fails when scans are skewed, noisy, faded, or low-resolution. It also returns raw text — a wall of characters without any understanding of what those characters represent in the context of the document.
AI-powered scan-to-CSV tools take a different approach. Instead of reading characters in isolation, the AI reads the visual structure of the entire document — headers, labels, tables, fields, and values — the way a person would. It understands that the number next to “Total” is a monetary amount, that rows in a table represent line items, and that the text at the top of the page is likely a vendor name or document title. This structural understanding is what turns raw scanned images into clean, organized CSV data.
Lido is a layout-agnostic AI extraction platform that handles scanned document conversion end to end. Upload scans of invoices, receipts, forms, or statements and get structured CSV data back in seconds. No templates to configure, no training data to provide, no per-document-type setup. Teams using Lido to convert scanned documents to CSV report eliminating 85–95% of manual data entry time.
Audited security controls verified over a sustained period.
BAA available for healthcare document processing.
Bank-grade encryption at rest. TLS 1.2+ in transit.
Documents never used to train or improve AI models.
Scanned documents automatically deleted within 24 hours.
Upload your scanned image or PDF to Lido. The AI reads the document using OCR, detects tables and fields, and extracts the data into structured CSV columns. No templates or manual mapping required. The process takes seconds per page and works on any document layout.
Yes. Scan your paper invoices using a flatbed scanner, phone camera, or multifunction printer, then upload the scans to Lido. The AI extracts invoice fields — vendor name, date, line items, quantities, amounts, tax, and totals — directly into CSV columns. This works on any invoice layout without templates.
Modern AI OCR achieves 95–99% accuracy on clean 300 DPI scans and 85–95% on lower-quality scans with noise, skew, or faded text. Phone camera photos work well in good lighting. For best results, use at least 200 DPI and keep the document flat with even lighting.
Yes. Upload a folder of scanned images or a multi-page PDF to process all documents at once. Lido extracts the same fields from each document into consistent columns in a single consolidated CSV file. Connect a watched folder or email inbox for automatic processing.
Any scanned document containing structured or semi-structured data: invoices, receipts, purchase orders, bank statements, credit card statements, tax forms, medical forms, timesheets, inventory lists, packing slips, and survey forms. Lido works on any document layout without prior configuration.
