2. What Extracted Data Look like?

On our web app, you can browse all transactions line-by-line, examine individual document details, or verify accuracy with a side-by-side view of the original file. The interface allows you to easily modify or delete entries and view expense overviews through powerful analytics.

What about exported data, what does it look like?

While the web app allows you to quickly review extracted data, we offer flexible export options to fit your workflow. Data can be exported to CSV or excel and include any subset of documents or transactions. Furthermore, we offer a way to see your expenses at the document level, or at the item level.
