Transcribing qualification titles, completion dates, and certificate numbers from academic or professional certificates into your HR or compliance system is avoidable manual work.

  • Re-type recipient name, course title, and issue date into your system

  • Have no automated way to verify certificate expiry or renewal

✅ After ParserBee

  • Upload certificates via browser or API
  • Extract recipient, qualification, institution, and dates automatically
  • Maintain searchable structured certificate records
  • Flag certificate expiry dates from extracted validity fields
  • Process certificates from any institution consistently
