MoneyThumb Lifecycle

Our processing lifecycle runs in 5 stages:

1. Intake

  • Send documents and third-party data in JSON to the API via /uploadpdfs.
  • Set accounttype to your document type. Then, PDF Insights identifies the supported document type for you.
  • You can also send documents and data by email, web portal, or third-party integrations, such as LendSaaS or Salesforce.

2. Conversion

PDF Insights converts the raw data into a clean structure for further processing or analysis. It parses text-based PDFs and JSON directly, and routes image-based PDFs through OCR.

During conversion, Reconcilation and PDF Fraud Detection occurs.

2a. Reconciliation

PDF Insights reconciles each bank statement transaction by confirming the

starting balance + deposits − withdrawals = ending balance

Check reconciled for the reconciliation outcome.

2b. PDF Fraud Detection

ThumbPrint scores each PDF statement for tampering and inconsistencies, both within a single statement and across statements from the same bank. Our methodology for this is patented.

3. Tagging

PDF Insights tags transactions into 75+ categories, such as:

  • True Revenue
  • Debt Obligations
  • NSFs
  • MCA Positions
  • Transfers
  • Payroll
  • Casino Payments

The benefits of these tags help you determine:

  • How transactions impact the business’s financial performance.
  • The difference between true revenue and untrue revenue.
  • How much money the business owes others.

4. Scorecard

Based on tags, PDF Insights generates a scorecard for analysis, calculating:

  • Monthly Revenue
  • Debt
  • Operating Expenses
  • Risk indicators

For the full Scorecard structure, see the Scorecard Reference.

5. Output

Depending on what you want to see, results return as a single JSON response containing these objects:
