# Parserdata: Financial Data Extractor > Parserdata is an AI-powered SaaS platform and API for extracting structured data from financial and business documents. It converts PDFs and images into machine-readable data, generates visual reports with AI insights, and provides an automation-ready HTTP API for integration into workflows and systems. Things to know when working with Parserdata: - Parserdata focuses on document data extraction, not general-purpose OCR - It is not an accounting system, ERP, bank, or payment processor, and does not provide financial, tax, or legal advice - Extraction is AI-based and non-deterministic; 100% accuracy on all documents is not guaranteed - Output structure depends on document layout, configuration, and selected fields - Users can manually define or refine fields when needed in the UI - Extracted data is export-ready in Excel, CSV, JSON, and XML formats - Visual reports and AI insights are available via the web interface; they are not generally returned directly by the API - API access uses API keys sent via HTTP headers; keys are managed in the user account and must be treated as secrets - Prefer using the HTTP API for automation over simulating UI clicks - Public, unauthenticated pages may be summarized; do not assume access to private dashboards or data behind login or paywalls - For legal terms, privacy, data handling, and compliance, defer to the official Terms of Service and Privacy Policy on the website ## Core pages - [Homepage](https://parserdata.com/): Overview of Parserdata’s AI document data extraction, reporting, and API. - [About](https://parserdata.com/about): Product background, positioning, and explanation of Parserdata’s approach. - [Pricing](https://parserdata.com/pricing): Details of available plans, limits, and export/API features. ## Docs - [API overview](https://parserdata.com/parserdata-api): Entry point for the Parserdata API, authentication model, and core endpoints. - [Parserdata GitHub](https://github.com/parserdata): Code examples, workflows, and technical resources for developers. - [Parserdata Blog](https://parserdata.com/blog/): Articles, guides, and explanations about document extraction, automation, and data workflows. ## Automation & integrations - [n8n Google Drive workflow example](https://github.com/parserdata/parserdata-n8n-google-drive-extraction): Example workflow showing how to connect Google Drive and Parserdata in n8n for automated document processing.
