Quick take

  • Forward an email or PDF, and the details you need land in a sheet or app a few seconds later.
  • The AI engine works without templates; a template mode is there for fixed layouts where you want exact control.
  • Free covers 20 pages a month. Paid plans start at $49 a month for 100 pages and get much cheaper per page as you go up.
  • Every plan, including Free, has the API, webhooks and connections to Zapier, Make, Power Automate and Google Sheets.
  • Reviewers rate the support highly, but say pricing is steep for low volumes and the advanced features need better docs.

What is Parseur?

Parseur turns emails and documents into rows of data. You get a Parseur mailbox address, forward emails or PDFs to it (or set a rule in Gmail or Outlook to do it automatically), and its AI picks out the fields you want: order numbers, customer details, dates, line items, totals. The data then goes to Google Sheets, Excel, your CRM or any app through Zapier, Make, Power Automate, webhooks or the API.

Pick it when the same kinds of email keep arriving and someone copies details out of them by hand: web orders, lead notifications, booking confirmations, supplier invoices, delivery notices. It is simpler and cheaper than Nanonets, which is built for heavier accounts payable work with approvals and ERP connections. For a single type of email with a fixed layout, a Zapier email parser step can be enough, but Parseur copes better when the layout varies.

The catch: you pay by pages processed, and small paid plans cost more per page than people expect for low volumes. The free plan is only 20 pages a month, which is short for a fair test, and reviewers say the advanced options are thinly documented. Support, though, gets consistently strong reviews.

Who's using it, and who it's for

  • Small business owners

Key features

  • AI parsing

  • Template mode

    For documents that always look the same, point and click to mark fields for exact, repeatable results.

  • Exports everywhere

    Download as Excel, CSV or JSON, or send live to Google Sheets, webhooks, the API, Zapier, Make and Power Automate.

  • Post-processing
