Turn any document into clean Google Sheets rows

Colbot extracts data from PDFs, images, Excel, and CSV into your Google Sheet with AI. Drop in a stack of files; it reads your columns and fills the rows — no formulas, no code.

How it works

From messy files to a clean sheet in three steps

1. Connect a Google Sheet

Colbot reads your header row and derives a reusable extraction schema from your columns.

2. Add your files

Drop in PDFs, images, Excel, or CSV — parsed in parallel; scans and photos go through OCR.

3. Review and append

Extracted rows are appended to your sheet — directly, or after a review step you control.

What you can extract

Drop in almost any file

Colbot reads a wide range of formats and turns each into clean, structured rows.

PDF
Word
Excel
CSV
Text
Images
Web pages
Markdown

Scanned files and photos are read with OCR automatically. Colbot also accepts JSON, XML, and OpenDocument files — or capture any web page with the Colbot Web Clipper.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

What file formats can Colbot extract?

PDFs (including multi-page and scanned files), images and photos (via OCR), Excel (.xlsx), and CSV. You can also capture web pages with the Chrome extension.

Does Colbot do OCR?

Yes. Scanned PDFs and photos are read with OCR automatically — you do not need a separate OCR step.

Do I need to know how to code?

No. If you can use a spreadsheet, you can use Colbot. There are no formulas and no code.

How accurate is the extraction?

Colbot infers fields from your columns, and you can turn on a review step to approve rows before they are written — so you stay in control of accuracy.

Where does the extracted data go?

Into the Google Sheet you connect. The sheet is the home for your data, so you can use it anywhere Google Sheets works.
