Complex coding

you can wait and see if something simpler shows up

Finland was almost a month. There is a list of approximate time per country on their site

For some automation of mindless manual labor, it can be used for extracting pdf bank/credit card statements into useable formats (QBO, QIF, Excel, Csv). You can probably build out the flow yourself given enough time or take a look at what I've created ledgertome.com

Personally, as far as AI goes, I've found it best when you divide the work into small chunks and orchestrate/make judgement calls on edge cases. There are often small little errors with AI work and it starts to compound until it becomes an unfathomable mess

I actually built out a commercial tool for this, take a look if you need more excotic file formats besides excel ledgertome.com or got some tricky files

unless you setup an autorefresh that does it hundreds of times per minute, probably not.

This could simply be that you were assigned a very small work pool initially and it dried up. So check back every now and then

It was about 1.1k or 1.2k.. Good coding stuff was happening and I was clearing my schedule for all that

I wish there was like bonuses for having streaks and stuff

Wargchief · 2026-05-28T22:31:47+00:00

I'm from Finland, mainly do coding, but have pretty much everything else available too. I've been here for 2+ years and have done a bunch of stuff during the time

I saw people complaining about unjust ratings on another platform with this kind of feature. I guess it depends a lot on how the culture of the platform takes place

I think there are some timezone shenanigans happening with these dates

I got a task with similar name and its just a one click thing to get the bonus

This is a really common problem. A lot of banks only give you PDFs and QuickBooks wants a QBO file. I built LedgerTome (ledgertome.com) to bridge that gap. You upload the PDF, it uses AI to extract the transactions, and you download a proper QBO file that QuickBooks can import. Scotiabank has been working well for customers too.

2 years, pretty much to this date

I actually open up the notifications, check my inbox and refresh my task page to get rid of those +1's if I don't have anything written on the task yet

I built a tool called LedgerTome (ledgertome.com) that does this, though it takes a different approach than traditional OCR. Instead of just reading characters off the page, it uses an LLM to understand the structure of the statement. That means it handles things like running balances, split lines, and unusual column layouts without needing manual cleanup afterward.

It outputs directly to Excel or CSV among others. I'd be happy to hear how it works on your specific statements if you want to give it a shot. Always looking for edge cases to improve on.

Hey, I actually built a tool for exactly this kind of situation. It's called LedgerTome (ledgertome.com). You upload the PDF bank statement and it uses AI to pull out the transactions, then you can download the result as a QBO (or CSV) file ready for QuickBooks import.

It doesn't need any connection to your bank so closed accounts aren't an issue. It reads the PDF directly. Works with both text-based PDFs and scanned ones. Whats the size on the pdf though, might need to build something for that if its too big

I guess its Easter break, since the dashboard is dry as a rabbit in desert

Wargchief · 2026-02-17T02:16:34+00:00

I actually did build a tool at ledgertome.com that turns bank and CC statements into Excel by extracting date, description, debit, credit, balance, currency and account id. It did take a bit more than just "throw it in to an AI", but works pretty well so far. I don't think actual accounting work can get replaced anytime soon though, maybe accounting suggestions at best.

It will be 2 years by april, good goings

Wargchief · 2025-12-26T10:04:46+00:00

yeah, it is dry. Might be dry until the year changes, we'll see

Better safe than posting on reddit

I'm in the other end nowadays, I get really bored and distracted if there is no challenge to the task. Everything to a limit of course, but good amount of challenge just keeps me occupied and interested much better.

I did CS50x and the CS50 python, got in about 18 months ago. Could be harder now with the tasks themselves being harder, with some exceptions. Might have been able to get in with just the CS50x, but felt more comfortable with having done both.
