PDF & Image Data Extractor™

AI Agent for Automated Text Extraction, Data Categorization & CSV Conversion

The PDF & Image Data Extractor is a professional AI-powered automation designed to extract, interpret, structure, and categorize data from PDFs and images at scale.

Operating entirely within your n8n environment, this agent monitors designated Google Drive folders, processes uploaded documents using Google Gemini and Llama 3.1, and converts unstructured content into clean, analysis-ready CSV files — without manual transcription.

It eliminates one of the most time-consuming and error-prone workflows in finance, operations, and research.

How It Works

The agent continuously monitors an input folder in Google Drive.
When a new PDF or image is detected, it automatically downloads the file, applies the appropriate AI processing pipeline, structures the extracted data, and saves the final CSV output to a specified destination folder.

The result: raw documents transformed into structured data automatically.
