ToSheet.ai and Nanonets
A document AI platform is built to be trained, connected and operated — which is right if you are processing tens of thousands of documents into an ERP. If what you actually want is a spreadsheet that fills itself, most of that machinery is cost without benefit.
Where Nanonets is strong: A serious platform with training, workflow and approval features that a large AP operation genuinely needs.
| ToSheet.ai | Nanonets | |
|---|---|---|
| Getting started | Drop a file, edit columns, get a sheet. No account. | Free to start, then a workflow and the systems it feeds. |
| Training | None. The model reads each document on its own terms. | Pre-built models that learn from the corrections you make. |
| The output | One Google Sheet that keeps filling. | Structured data into the systems you integrate. |
| Who it fits | A team that lives in a spreadsheet. | An operation with volume, approvals and an ERP behind it. |
| Pricing shape | A monthly bundle of pages. | Platform pricing — check their site for current terms. |
Questions people ask
- We need approvals and an audit trail.
- Then a platform is the right answer and this is not it. A Google Sheet on a shared link has no approval step, and pretending otherwise would waste your evaluation.
- Can I try it against a document from the product I use now?
- That is what the dropzone above is for, and it needs no account. Use a real file — a clean sample proves nothing about the ones that actually give you trouble.
- Where does my data end up?
- In a Google Sheet on an unguessable link that anyone holding can edit. We keep the extracted row, not your document — the file is discarded once the sheet is built.
- I work in Excel. Can I get the data out of Google Sheets?
- Yes, and it is Google's feature rather than ours: Google Sheets will download any sheet as .xlsx or .csv from its own File menu, and it opens in Excel from there. What we build and keep filling is the Google Sheet itself — we never produce an Excel file, so anything forwarded later adds a row to the sheet and not to a copy you have already taken off it.
- What if one scan holds several documents?
- Each one becomes its own row. We tell you how many we found before the sheet is created, and you can correct it in one click if we got it wrong.
- Do photos from a phone work?
- Usually, yes — including stamped, stapled and hand-annotated copies. If a photo of a document is too blurry to read we say so rather than inventing a row.
- Who can see my Google Sheet?
- Only people you give the link to. The link is unguessable, anyone holding it can edit the sheet, and we never share it with anyone else.
- Do you keep my documents?
- No. We keep the extracted row, not the document. The file is discarded once your sheet is built.
- How does forwarding work?
- Your sheet gets its own address at in.tosheet.ai. Forward a document there — from your own mailbox, or straight from whoever sends them to you — and ToSheet.ai adds its row within seconds. You never have to open this site again.
