Document to Data
Invoices and tax invoices turned into checked data.
Lookdocu reads invoices, tax invoices and receipts from PDFs, scans or photos, then checks the figures against rules for Indonesian documents before the data goes to Excel, Google Sheets or your system.

All use casesThe problem
Invoice data is still retyped, and wrong figures surface late.
- Invoices and tax invoices arrive as PDFs, scans or phone photos.
- Numbers, dates, vendors and amounts are retyped into spreadsheets or systems.
- Totals that do not match the subtotal and VAT are often found only at reconciliation.
How it works
- 1
Upload or send through the API
The team uploads documents in the app, or your system sends them through the REST API.
- 2
Read and extract
Number, date, vendor, line items, tax base, VAT and total are read into structured fields.
- 3
Check the figures
Rules for Indonesian documents flag figures that do not match, such as a subtotal plus VAT that differs from the total.
- 4
Send to your system
Checked data goes to Excel, Google Sheets or your system through the API and webhooks.

Questions
Can scans and phone photos be read?
Yes. Lookdocu reads PDFs, scans, photos and Word files, including the tables inside them.
What if the figures on a document do not match?
Fields that do not match are flagged for the team to review before the data moves on.
