Case Study: PayDashboard enables intelligent PDF payslip data extraction with iText pdf2Data

PayDashboard implements iText pdf2Data in a single three-week sprint

PayDashboard, a UK-based provider of digital payslip solutions, faced a challenge integrating with legacy payroll systems that could not connect to its API. These systems only output PDF payslips, making it difficult to extract structured data for their interactive portal. To solve this, PayDashboard turned to iText and its pdf2Data product to intelligently extract the necessary data from these PDF documents.

iText implemented its pdf2Data solution, which uses a template-based editor to visually define and extract data from consistently formatted PDFs like payslips. This allowed PayDashboard to quickly process documents for thousands of employees. The result was a successful proof-of-concept built within three weeks, enabling PayDashboard to onboard clients who previously could not use their service. The solution was so effective that PayDashboard is now also looking to use iText for modernizing its own PDF generation.
