AI data extraction

How Getbeel's AI reads invoices and extracts structured data with confidence scoring.

Getbeel's AI analyzes every scanned invoice and extracts structured data — vendor info, amounts, dates, line items, and more. While AI processes a document, the invoice appears with a Processing status. Once extraction completes, it moves to Pending Review.

Supported Invoice Types

The AI recognizes and extracts data from:

  • Invoice — Standard vendor invoices
  • Receipt — Purchase receipts and payment confirmations
  • Subscription — Recurring billing statements
  • Refund — Credit notes and refund confirmations
  • Bill — Utility bills and service charges

What Gets Extracted

  • Vendor — Name, email, address, tax ID
  • Invoice details — Number, date, due date, currency, invoice type
  • Amounts — Subtotal, tax, total (multi-currency support with original currency preserved)
  • Line items — Description, quantity, unit price, amount, tax rate
  • Business logic — Payment status, recurring billing detection, language detected
  • AI flagscompany_match_uncertain (vendor could not be confidently matched), language detected (document language identified)

Confidence Scoring

Every extraction includes a 0-to-1 confidence score:

  • High (0.85+) — Quick glance to verify
  • Medium (0.70-0.84) — Review recommended
  • Low (below 0.70) — Manual attention needed

Low-confidence invoices appear in the Needs Attention section of your dashboard.

Processing and Polling

When an invoice is submitted for extraction (via email scan or manual upload), it enters the Processing state. The UI polls for results every 2 seconds for up to 5 minutes. Once the AI finishes, the invoice transitions to Pending Review with all extracted data available.

If processing exceeds the timeout, the invoice remains in Processing and can be retried.

Supported Formats

  • PDF — Most common, fully supported
  • JPG / PNG / WebP — Scanned or photographed invoices
  • HTML emails — Invoices embedded in email body

Works with any currency and any language. The AI detects the document language automatically and preserves the original currency in the extraction.

Improving Accuracy
