What is messy document intake?
Messy document intake is receiving receipts, invoices, bills, statements, screenshots, scans, and bundled PDFs from clients, then turning them into bookkeeping-ready records.
What it means
Clients rarely send clean files. They send phone photos, forwarded emails, loose screenshots, scans, and one large PDF with several document types inside. untxt. classifies each document, extracts fields and line items, flags uncertainty, and prepares the output for review.
02 · Example
A client uploads fuel receipts, vendor invoices, a bank statement, and a three-page bill in the wrong order. untxt. identifies the document types, groups the related pages, extracts the relevant fields, and creates a reviewable queue.
Where review matters
Humans still matter when totals are blurry, notes are handwritten, invoice numbers are missing, or the account choice depends on client context.
Who this helps
This helps bookkeepers and accounting practices that lose time before bookkeeping even starts: collecting files, sorting document types, splitting PDFs, finding duplicates, and deciding what needs review.
What untxt. does
untxt. gives messy intake one structured path. It classifies documents, groups related pages, extracts fields and line items, and flags low-confidence values so the review queue starts with the exceptions instead of the whole pile.
What it does not pretend
It does not pretend every client upload is clean or every accounting choice is obvious. Missing context, unclear images, and judgment-based account choices still belong in review.
