Transcribing Bank Statements to Markdown Using Gemini Vision AI
Extracts data from bank statements by converting PDFs to images, using a multimodal LLM (like Gemini) to transcribe them to Markdown, and finally, extracting specific data points. It's an alternative to traditional OCR for complex layouts.
Benefits
Advanced Transcription
Uses a multimodal language model (Gemini) to interpret complex bank statement layouts, delivering more accurate and structured transcriptions than traditional OCR.
Markdown Format
Transcribes the extracted data into a Markdown format, making it easy to organize, analyze, and integrate into various systems or tools.
Complex Layout Handling
This process is ideal for statements with non-standard layouts, such as tables, graphs, or intricate formatting, which are often challenging for traditional OCR.
Specific Data Extraction
The system can extract key financial data, such as transaction amounts, dates, account numbers, and other important details, making it easier to process and analyze bank statement data.
Improved Accuracy
By using an advanced AI model, the transcription is more accurate, reducing the errors common with basic OCR methods.
How It Works
