AI-Powered PDF Invoice Parser: Drive, Sheets & OpenAI
Automates PDF invoice processing from Google Drive using OCR and OpenAI to extract key data like totals, vendors, and items, then stores it in Google Sheets for easy review.
This workflow revolutionizes invoice management by monitoring a designated Google Drive folder for new PDF invoices in real-time. Upon detection, it downloads the files, applies OCR to handle both text-based and scanned documents, and leverages OpenAI to intelligently parse critical fields including invoice number, date, total amount, vendor name, itemized details, tax, and category.
Data extraction is followed by validation against a structured JSON schema to ensure accuracy and compliance. Th
