Bank Statement Converter
Bank statement PDF to reviewed XLSX, CSV, and JSON
Hey Indie Hackers!
I'm building Bank Statement Converter to help people easily convert bank statement PDFs (both digital and scanned) into reviewed Excel (XLSX), CSV, and JSON files.
Why I built this:
Dealing with bank statement PDFs is often tedious, especially when importing transaction records into bookkeeping tools or spreadsheets. Manual data entry or copy-pasting often breaks formatting and wastes time.
Key features:
• Supports both digital and scanned PDF bank statements
• Extracts transaction dates, descriptions, money in/out, and running balances into labeled columns
• Runs built-in financial validation checks to ensure data accuracy before download
• Failed conversions cost 0 credits
I’d love to hear your thoughts or feedback if you frequently process financial documents!

I think the early stage is actually the most interesting part of building a product. How are you currently planning to get your first 10–20 real users?
The built-in financial validation checks are the detail that caught my eye. Converting the PDF is one thing but having a reviewed output matters a lot when the data is going into bookkeeping. At $1K/mo this feels like it could be pulling in a lot more organic traffic than it probably is right now. Have you noticed who’s using it most so far?
The validation checks are probably the strongest part here. PDF extraction is easy to demonstrate; trusting the resulting numbers enough to put them into bookkeeping is the harder problem. Curious what kinds of statement formats have been the most difficult to get reliably right?
