Why use a structured extraction workflow

Get reviewable structured data from your documents, with confidence signals that show where a human check may help.

Built for reviewable structured data

Upload a representative supported PDF, scan, or photo, review the returned fields, and export JSON, CSV, or Excel for downstream use.

Confidence signals for review

Returned configured fields include confidence signals to help prioritize review. A confidence value is not a guarantee that a field is correct.

Frequently Asked Questions

How is W-2 Extractor different from W-2 Converter?

Both extract W-2 data. W-2 Extractor is optimized for API integration and bulk extraction workflows. W-2 Converter focuses on individual form conversion.

Can I extract data from corrected W-2c forms?

Yes. W-2c, W-2G, and standard W-2 forms are all supported.

What output formats do you support?

The upload flow accepts supported PDF and image files. W-2 layouts vary, so use the free parses to test a representative document and verify the output before scaling the workflow.

Which W-2 boxes do you extract?

The configured schema includes representative wage, withholding, employer, employee, and state fields. Review the current field list and compare returned values with the source form.

Can I process multiple W-2s at once?

Batch and asynchronous workflows are available for supported document types. Start with representative files, review the returned fields, and confirm the current limits in the dashboard or API documentation.

Do you support W-2c corrections?

Corrected forms can differ from standard W-2 layouts. Test a representative W-2c before adopting it in a workflow and review all returned fields.

How do you handle multi-state W-2s?

Configured state entries may be returned when present. Multi-state layouts vary, so compare every required state field with the source.

How accurate is the extraction?

W-2 fields include confidence scores. Review low-confidence values and verify the final data against the source form before filing or making a decision.

Can I use the API programmatically?

Yes. Every plan includes full API access. Your API key is in the dashboard the moment you sign up. Check the API docs for code samples in cURL, Python, and Node.

What file formats do you support?

The current upload flow accepts PDF (including scans), PNG, JPG, and WEBP files up to 4.5MB. Test a representative employer or payroll-provider layout before processing a batch.
