How do I turn a client's bank statements into a report?
Upload the client's statements for every account to one DocuClipper project. Each statement is converted and totaled against its printed opening and closing balances, then the Report tab summarizes the whole packet: which months are missing, which amounts are transfers between the client's accounts, what recurs, cash in and out, and anything that needs a second look. Download it as a PDF or an Excel workbook.

How does a stack of PDFs become a report?
Three steps, and only the first one is yours.
- 1
Upload everything the client sent
Checking, savings and cards, every month, in one project. No splitting files by month or account first.
- 2
Every statement ties out, or is flagged
Each statement is converted and totaled against the balances the bank printed on it, so the report starts from numbers you can check.
- 3
Open the Report tab
The packet summary first, then one card per report with its headline and flags. Download it as PDF or Excel.
Which reports are in it?
Nine reports, each answering a question you would otherwise answer with a spreadsheet. A report that lacks the statements it needs says so instead of showing zeros.
Packet summary
What did the client send?
Every document in the project with its account, period and whether it ties out to the printed balances, in one paragraph at the top of the report.
Coverage
Is any month missing?
Each account month by month: the months with no statement between the first and last one provided, the statements that do not reconcile, and accounts that appear in the transactions without a statement of their own.
Authenticity
Was any statement edited?
A 0 to 100 score for each document, from its PDF edit history, pasted-in amounts, the bank's layout and the balance math. The lowest score in the project is shown first.
Business and Enterprise, and the free trial
Income
Where does the money come from?
Deposits grouped by payer with their cadence, average and recurring monthly income, and one-off deposits, with transfers, refunds and loan proceeds left out.
Risk flags
What is the account costing the client?
NSF, returned-item and overdraft fees by month, the days each account ended below zero, and the low and average daily balance.
Cashflow
Is the client spending more than comes in?
Money in, money out and net cash by month across every account, the opening and closing balances, and spending by category.
Transfers
Which amounts are just moving between accounts?
Withdrawals paired with the matching deposit on another account in the project, so the same dollar is not booked as both expense and income.
Recurring
What repeats every month?
Subscriptions, rent, loan payments and payroll that recur on a regular cadence, with how often and how much.
Flow of funds
Where did the money go?
Money in and out of every account by counterparty, so you can answer a client's question about a payee without reading line items.
Business and Enterprise, and the free trial
Each card opens to the detail in Advanced Analysis, where you can review a transfer pair, tag a transaction or correct a row, and the report follows.
What does the report look like?
A sample client project, exactly as the Report tab and the PDF show it.
Read a full sample report
Six months of statements for a small bakery client: business checking, savings and a business Visa. All 18 statements reconcile to their printed balances, the 13 transfers and card payments between the client's own accounts are paired, and the recurring bills, income sources and month-by-month cash flow are laid out, ready to review before you book anything.
PDF, 14 pages. A fictional client, exported from DocuClipper unedited. Your report uses your client's statements.
Why not ask ChatGPT, or let QuickBooks import the PDF?
Both are good at what they do. A chat assistant answers a question about a file. Your ledger imports transactions into a bank feed. Neither hands you a checked report on everything a client sent.

Where does it fit in client work?
The same report, four jobs your firm already does.
Catch-up and clean-up
A client drops two years of statements on you. Coverage names the missing months before you start, and Transfers keeps money moving between their accounts out of income and expense.
Monthly bookkeeping
Recurring shows what the client pays every month, so a new or missing charge stands out before you close the month.
Tax season
Income groups deposits by payer, with transfers and refunds left out, so you can compare what came in with the 1099s and W-2s the client handed you.
Advisory conversations
Cashflow and Risk flags give you the month-by-month picture and the fees the client is paying, in a PDF you can walk them through.
Why trust the numbers?
Because you can check them, and so can your reviewer.
Checked against the bank
Every statement period is totaled against the opening and closing balances the bank printed. DocuClipper reports 99.9% field-level accuracy, and this check is how you confirm it on each file.
Same statements, same report
Reports are computed by fixed rules from the converted rows, not written fresh by a chat model, so running it again gives the same answer.
Client data stays protected
SOC 2 Type II audited. Client documents are not used to train third-party models, and retention is configurable.
Security details for your IT or compliance reviewer are on the security page.
“DocuClipper allowed us to enhance our advisory services, directly impacting our bottom line.”

Document analysis: questions accountants ask
It turns a client's bank and credit card statements into a finished report. Upload the statements to a project, DocuClipper converts each one and checks it against its printed opening and closing balances, and the project's Report tab shows a packet summary followed by Coverage, Transfers, Recurring, Cashflow, Income, Risk flags, Authenticity and Flow of funds. Download it as a PDF or as an Excel workbook.
You can ask a chat assistant about a statement, but it answers fresh each time, reads a limited number of pages per file, and does not show which rows a number came from. DocuClipper converts every page, ties each statement to the balances the bank printed, and builds the same report from the same statements every time. Client documents stay in a SOC 2 Type II audited system and are not used to train third-party models.
The ledger import puts transactions into one bank feed. It does not tell you that March is missing, that a deposit is a transfer from the client's savings, or what the client pays every month. DocuClipper reports on all of a client's accounts at once before you book anything, then exports the transactions to QuickBooks, Xero, Excel or CSV.
The Report tab is on every plan, including the free trial. Authenticity and Flow of funds come with Business and Enterprise plans and are included in the 14-day free trial.
No. Pages are counted when a statement is converted. Reports run on statements already in the project, and you can open, refresh and download them as often as you like.
Yes. Download PDF gives a cover page with the packet summary, one page per report and an appendix that lists every document with its period and reconciliation status. Download Excel gives one sheet per report for your own working papers.
Add it to the same project. The reports recalculate from the project's current statements, so a month that was missing drops off the Coverage report and the totals include the new period.
Yes. Digital and scanned PDFs from any bank are converted, and credit card statements sit in the same project as the bank accounts, so a card payment from checking shows up as a transfer instead of an expense.
