How it works
How it works This workflow automatically processes bank statements from various formats and extracts structured transaction data with intelligent categorization using AI. Key Steps File Upload - Accepts bank statements via webhook upload (PDF, Excel, CSV formats). Smart Format Detection - Automatically routes files to appropriate processors (PDF text extraction or spreadsheet parsing). AI-Powered Extraction - Uses GPT-4 to extract account details, transactions, and balances from statement data. Data Processing & Categorization - Cleans, validates, and automatically categorizes transactions into expense categories. Database Storage - Saves processed data to PostgreSQL database for analysis and reporting. API Response - Returns structured summary with transaction counts, expense totals, and category breakdowns. Set up steps Setup time: 8-12 minutes Configure OpenAI credentials - Add your OpenAI API key for AI-powered data extraction. Set up PostgreSQL database - Connect your PostgreSQL database and create the required table structure. Configure webhook endpoint - The workflow provides a /upload-statement endpoint for file uploads. Customize transaction categories - Modify the AI prompt to include your preferred expense categories. Test the workflow - Upload a sample bank statement to verify the extraction and categorization process.
