How to turn any bank PDF into CSV
Three tools, three PDF types: text PDFs, scanned PDFs, password-protected PDFs. Here's the fastest path for each.
Bank PDFs come in three flavours: text-based (copy-paste works), scanned (image-only — needs OCR), and password-protected (encrypted at rest). Each needs a slightly different approach. Here's the fastest path for each — no tool switching.

Open in Adobe → Export → CSV, or upload to Convert Bank Statements. Text PDFs convert in under 5 seconds.
Needs OCR. Convert Bank Statements OCRs and re-parses in one pass.
