Invoice & Receipt PDF to JSON Parser

Reads digital invoice and receipt PDFs and returns structured JSON: vendor, invoice number, issue and due dates, currency, subtotal, tax, total, emails, VAT IDs and line items. Every result includes a totals check (do line items add up to the subtotal, and subtotal plus tax to the total?) and a confidence score, so you can auto-approve the clean ones and review the rest.

Features

• US and European number and date formats ($1,234.56 and € 1.234,56)
• Line items with description, quantity, unit price and amount
• Totals check and confidence score per document
• No AI or OpenAI key needed, and no data is sent to third parties
• Optional raw text output for your own parsing

Use cases

Accounts-payable automation, bookkeeping and ERP imports, expense tools, n8n/Make/Zapier invoice workflows.

Limits

Digital PDFs only (scanned invoices need OCR first). Unusual layouts may return partial fields with a lower confidence score.

Pricing

Pay per event, so you pay only for results.

$0.01 per document parsed ($10 per 1,000). Files that aren't invoices or parse with low confidence (under 0.5) are returned but not charged.

There is also Apify's standard run-start fee of $0.00005 per GB of run memory (a fraction of a cent per run). The exact prices are always shown on the Pricing tab. You can cap any run with the Maximum cost per run setting.

Use it from code or no-code tools

Every run can be started from the Apify API, the Apify Python/JS clients, or connected to n8n, Make, Zapier and Google Sheets through Apify integrations. Results download as JSON, CSV, Excel or XML.

from apify_client import ApifyClient
client = ApifyClient("<YOUR_APIFY_TOKEN>")
run = client.actor("tidyfold/invoice-pdf-to-json").call(run_input={'pdfUrls': ['https://slicedinvoices.com/pdf/wordpress-pdf-invoice-plugin-sample.pdf']})
for item in client.dataset(run["defaultDatasetId"]).iterate_items():
    print(item)
