How AI is used

ChimpKey is a conversion service that turns digital PDF documents—such as invoices, bills, and purchase orders—into formats like EDI X12, XML, and CSV. It is designed for businesses that receive documents in PDF form but require structured data for their accounting or operations software.

The tool is intended for suppliers, manufacturers, and distributors who work with trading partners that may not have full EDI capabilities. By emailing PDFs to a unique ChimpKey address, users can have their data converted and delivered to their system.

It supports a range of ERPs and accounting software, including QuickBooks, Sage, NetSuite, Microsoft Dynamics, and SAP. The service helps reduce manual data entry by using custom templates to map specific document layouts.

Buyers should confirm that their incoming PDFs are not scanned images, as the service requires digital PDFs to function. A one-time mapping process for each document type is required before automation begins.
