Extract Data from Cheques Automatically

Upload any cheque image or scan and get payee name, amount in figures and words, date, cheque number, and bank details extracted as structured data instantly.

Used by banks, accounts payable teams, and payment processing platforms worldwide.

Stop manually reading cheques for payment processing

Reading cheque fields individually to verify payee names, amounts, and account details for payment entry is slow and prone to transcription errors that cause payment problems.

❌ Before ParserBee

  • Read each cheque to verify payee and amount manually
  • Re-key cheque details into your banking or AP system
  • Risk errors on account numbers and routing codes
  • Process cheque batches at end of day
  • Struggle to reconcile payments when cheque data isn't structured

✅ After ParserBee

  • Upload cheque scans via browser or API
  • Extract payee, amount, date, and bank codes automatically
  • Validate that amount in figures matches amount in words
  • Push structured data into your payment or AP system
  • Reconcile cheque payments instantly using structured data
