We learned how to use the offline pdf parser (tabula-py), and connected it with a frontend that's a react app. We found a javascript library that lets you drag-select over pdfs, and we just put the two things together. My friend had this problem at her job, and we just had her test it out. It works pretty well out of the box!

Grabbing data tables from pdfs sucks. Formatting isn't kept, and all the existing programs are either downloaded, or for just excel. This lets you upload, select, and get back a google sheet with your data.
