Tracking employee certifications from paper or PDF certificates is time-consuming and easy to miss when renewals come due.

❌ Before ParserBee

  • Open each certificate PDF and read it manually
  • Re-type course name, completion date, and expiry into your LMS or spreadsheet
  • Risk missing renewal dates buried in certificate documents
  • Process certificates from dozens of different training providers inconsistently
  • Have no automated way to flag expiring certifications

✅ After ParserBee

  • Upload certificates individually or in bulk via API
  • Extract recipient, course, issue date, and expiry automatically
  • Get clean structured records ready for your LMS or compliance tracker
  • Flag expiring certificates by querying extracted expiry dates
  • Process certificates from any training provider consistently
