About PDF2CSV

Hi — I'm Peggy, a software developer in Australia, and PDF2CSV is my product. I build it, I support it, and when you email support, it's me who answers.

Why this exists

Every tax time, the same chore: a folder of bank statement PDFs that need to become spreadsheets. The online converters that promise to help all work the same way — you upload your statement, with every transaction, merchant, and balance on it, to a server you know nothing about.

That always felt wrong to me. A bank statement is about the most sensitive document most of us handle regularly. So I built the converter I wanted to use: one where the file simply never leaves your computer.

How it's different

PDF2CSV's parser runs entirely inside your browser. There is no upload step to skip — there's no upload at all. The server behind this site does exactly three small jobs: it signs you in, checks your subscription is active, and (if you opt-in-by-using-it) records anonymous counts like "a 12-page statement was parsed successfully". It cannot see your files, because they're never sent. The privacy policy lists every field we collect — it's short.

The parsing itself is the part I'm proudest of: it doesn't rely on hand-made templates for each bank. It finds the transaction table in the document, works out the columns, extracts the rows, and then proves the result to you by reconciling every row against the statement's running balance. When something doesn't add up, it says so and shows you where.
