Migration Guide

Switching from DocuClipper to ExtractInvoice

A bank statement tool masquerading as invoice software. Page-based pricing means a 10-page invoice eats 10 pages from your quota. Here's a purpose-built alternative.

Why People Leave DocuClipper

Real complaints from recent reviews:

Bank statement tool masquerading as invoice software - primarily for bank statement conversion, invoices are secondary
Customer support complaints: "Emailed many times, no response"
Cancellation nightmares: "Never been able to cancel my account"
Accuracy issues: "Some dates were wrong, some amounts had wrong signs"
Page-based pricing: a multi-page invoice can quickly eat through your quota
Built for accounting forensics, not daily bookkeeping workflows

What You'll Save

DocuClipper Pricing

Starter (60-300 pages)$39/mo
Business (500-1,500 pages)$159/mo
Enterprise (2,000-5,000 pages)$399/mo

ExtractInvoice Pricing

Starter (500 invoices)$29/mo
Professional (1,500 invoices)$59/mo
Premium (4,000 invoices)$119/mo

For typical bookkeeper (500 invoices/mo at ~2 pages each = 1,000 pages):

DocuClipper
$159/mo (Business)
ExtractInvoice
$59/mo
You save
$1,200/year (63% less)

DocuClipper charges per page, not per invoice. A 2-page invoice costs twice as much to process. We charge per invoice regardless of page count.

The Migration

5 minutes, seriously

What transfers:

Nothing. Invoice extraction tools don't store accounting data—your QuickBooks/Xero has everything already.

What changes:

1

Stop forwarding to DocuClipper (2 min): Update your email forwarding to your-name@extractinvoice.com

2

Pick your export format (one-time): Choose your accounting software format and we'll remember it

3

Test invoice (1 min): Forward one invoice, verify extraction, export and import

That's it. No data export, no migration nightmare, no waiting.

Supported Accounting Software

We export directly to:

QuickBooks Desktop (IIF format)
QuickBooks Online (QBO bills CSV)
Xero (Xero-specific CSV)
Generic formats (CSV, Excel, JSON) for any other software

Set your preference once, every export comes out ready to import. No manual formatting or field mapping.

The Workflow (Better Than You Think)

During the week

  • Snap invoices with your phone → forward to your@extractinvoice.com
  • Or forward from your email as they arrive
  • ExtractInvoice processes them in ~10 seconds
  • Review/correct any extractions on mobile or desktop

Once a week (or daily, whatever)

  • Select all invoices you want to import (or filter by date/client)
  • Click export → get ONE file with everything
  • Import to your accounting software
  • Done

Why bookkeepers actually prefer this:

No page counting (invoice-based pricing makes sense)
Built for invoices from day one, not retrofitted from bank statements
Batch export instead of individual conversions
Actually designed for bookkeeping workflows

OAuth integration is coming for those who want real-time sync, but many bookkeepers tell us they prefer batching their workflow.

What's Different (Honestly)

Better

  • 98-99% extraction accuracy (DocuClipper claims 99.6% but reviews mention date/amount errors)
  • Invoice-focused from the start (not a bank statement tool with invoice features bolted on)
  • 63% cheaper - $59/mo vs $159/mo for typical invoice volumes
  • Per-invoice pricing - multi-page invoices don't cost extra
  • 10-second processing
  • Responsive support (founder-run, email answered same day - not "emailed many times, no response")
  • Easy cancellation (in your settings, not "unable to cancel my account")
  • Batch export (select 50 invoices → get 1 file)

Different

  • Simpler interface (we focus on invoices/receipts, not forensic accounting)
  • 14-day trial with full features (not 10-transaction export limit)
  • Export/import workflow - Process invoices all week, export in one batch, import once. OAuth coming soon.
  • No separate mobile app - Email forwarding works from your phone's camera (snap → forward → done), and our web interface is fully mobile-optimized

Not available yet

  • Bank statement conversion (we're invoice-focused)
  • Fraud detection / bank statement analysis
  • Forensic accounting features
  • Multi-page statement reconciliation
  • Direct OAuth sync (batch export works great meanwhile)

14-Day Trial Process

1

Sign up at extractinvoice.com

2

Set your accounting software preference (QuickBooks Desktop/Online, Xero, etc.)

3

Forward 5-10 real invoices from your daily workflow

4

Review extractions - actually see if dates/amounts are correct (since that was your DocuClipper issue)

5

Select all → export → import to your accounting software

6

If you like it, cancel DocuClipper (good luck with that, based on reviews)

The Honest Pitch

We're not DocuClipper. We're a bootstrapped alternative that:

Costs 63% less for typical invoice volumes
Per-invoice pricing - no penalty for multi-page documents
Actually designed for bookkeepers, not forensic accountants
Support that responds (same day, not "many emails with no response")
Cancellation that works (in your settings, done)

This isn't for everyone. If you need bank statement conversion or fraud detection, DocuClipper is actually good at that - stick with them. If you're processing invoices and receipts and wondering why you're paying for a bank statement tool, try us. The real question: Did you sign up for DocuClipper because you needed invoice extraction, or because they rank well for 'PDF to QuickBooks'? If it's the former, you're using the wrong tool.
