Ocrolus alternative

Ocrolus pricing, and a simpler alternative for turning bank statements into Excel

Ocrolus is an AI workflow and analytics platform for lenders: it classifies documents, captures their data, detects tampering, and analyzes cash flow and income, by API or in its dashboard, with prices set by contract. pdf2text does one part of that job: upload a bank statement, check every row beside the page, and download Excel, CSV, or JSON. For a small lender or broker who only needs the transactions in a spreadsheet, that can be enough; for underwriting at scale, Ocrolus is the better choice.

In short

  • Published prices: pdf2text costs $29 a month for 400 pages, or $9 once per document of up to 25 pages. Ocrolus publishes no price: it says pricing varies with document type, extraction needs, volume, and contract terms.
  • Rows you can check: pdf2text shows every transaction beside its page with a balance check, then exports Excel, CSV, or JSON. Ocrolus returns JSON through its API and Excel exports of its cash-flow analytics.
  • Stay with Ocrolus to detect tampered documents, score cash-flow risk, calculate mortgage income, or feed a loan origination system.

Why people look for an Ocrolus alternative

A price you can see first

Ocrolus prices by document type, extraction needs, volume, and contract terms, and its standard agreement runs for a year and renews automatically. pdf2text lists its prices: $19 a month for 150 pages or $29 a month for 400 pages, cancel any time.

Only the transactions

If you review a borrower's transactions yourself, a platform built for classification, fraud checks, and analytics can be more than the job needs. pdf2text reads the statement and shows every row beside its page.

An occasional file

A broker with a file now and then can pay once for it on pdf2text: $9 once per document of up to 25 pages.
