What if my HTML file has more than one table?

Only the first in the document is extracted. If you need a different one, save just that table’s HTML to its own file before uploading.

What if a table has no header row?

The first row is always treated as the header row. A header cell with no text gets an honest placeholder name (column_1, column_2, ...) rather than a blank or duplicate column.

Does this render the page, or just read the HTML?

It only reads the raw HTML markup for / / structure — it does not render CSS, run JavaScript, or fetch a live URL. Save the page/table as a real .html file first.

How are merged cells handled?

Merged cells (colspan and rowspan) are not expanded. Cells are read by their position in each row, and a row with fewer cells than the header gets empty values in the remaining columns.

Is the text of each cell cleaned?

Each cell is read as plain text with leading and trailing whitespace removed. Both header ( ) and data ( ) cells are read, and any markup inside a cell, such as links or bold text, is reduced to its text.

Can I get a table from a live webpage?

Not directly. Save the page or just the table as an .html file first, then upload it. This tool reads the saved markup and does not open URLs.

How accurate is the AI data extraction?

Datafromfile uses AI vision models to read document structure (tables, totals, and line items) directly from PDFs, scans, and photos. Extraction quality varies by document: a clean digital PDF extracts more reliably than a blurry photo, and clearly printed text is more reliable than handwriting or a heavily irregular table layout. Every result is flagged as either high confidence or needs review, never a fabricated precision percentage, and you can check the data yourself in the editable workspace before exporting. Every plan uses the same extraction models; paid plans get more monthly volume and faster concurrent processing, not a different or more accurate model.

What file types can I upload, and what can I export to?

Upload PDF, JPG, PNG, WebP, XLSX, XLS, CSV, JSON, XML, or HTML. Every plan, including Free, exports to Excel (.xlsx), CSV and JSON; Pro and above add Markdown export too, see the plan comparison on the Pricing page for the exact breakdown.

What if my file is too large, or has a lot of pages?

Each plan has its own real per-file limit, enforced on the actual file you upload, not just a claim: 3 MB on Free, 10 MB on Pro, 25 MB on Business, and 100 MB on Enterprise. A multi-page document, like a 10-page bank statement, is supported and read as one continuous result as long as the whole file stays under your plan's limit; a scan larger than that may need to be compressed or split first.

Is my financial and business data private and secure?

Yes. Each user’s documents are isolated at the database level, every upload travels over TLS, the original file is not kept once extraction finishes, and nothing you upload is used to train AI models.

Is the Free plan really free, and what actually triggers an upgrade?

Yes: 15 real AI operations a month (an extraction, an Ask Your Data question, or an AI transform each count as one), no credit card required, indefinitely. Excel export and AI-powered cleaning are included on Free. You'd look at a paid plan once you need more than 15 operations a month, bigger files, larger batch uploads, or Markdown export, all Pro and above.

Features

Deterministic HTML parsing, not guessed by an AI model
Extracts the first <table> in the document — header cells become column names
Handles a table saved directly from a browser ("Save Page As" → HTML) or exported from another tool
Review and edit every row in the workspace before exporting

How it works

Upload your HTML file: A .html/.htm file containing at least one <table>.
Table extraction: The first table’s header row becomes columns; each following row becomes a record.
Export CSV: Download as .csv or copy straight to your clipboard.
