Transform your document processing with Zapier
Zapier helps finance teams turn financial document processing into a faster, more reliable workflow. Capture document data, route approval workflows, and track processing status—and that's just the start.
Document intake
Capture every financial document faster
Zapier automates the intake of invoices, statements, and finance records as soon as they arrive. Documents from Gmail, Google Drive, Dropbox, or Cognito Forms can be collected, converted, and prepared for OCR with PDF.co, CloudConvert, or Docparser. That gives finance teams a cleaner starting point for document processing automation.
Inbox capture rules
Route incoming finance emails from Gmail into the right document queue based on sender, subject line, or attachment type. That keeps invoice and AP intake organized from the first touch.
Form-based submissions
Collect uploaded files from Cognito Forms and send them straight to storage or extraction workflows. Finance professionals get complete submissions without chasing attachments.
Cloud file intake
Pull new files from Google Drive, Dropbox, Microsoft SharePoint, or Amazon S3 into one processing stream. This gives finance teams one dependable intake path across document sources.
PDF conversion flows
Convert scans and mixed file formats with CloudConvert or PDF.co before extraction begins. Clean, readable files improve OCR results and reduce downstream exceptions.
Smart document triage
Classify financial documents by type and route them to the next step with ChatGPT (OpenAI) or Docparser outputs. That helps separate invoices, statements, and contracts without manual sorting.
