How email parsing works
Every ParseMe account has a unique inbox address (your-id@in.parseme.co). Forward any email there — ParseMe extracts data from the email body, any attached PDFs or images, and structured content like order confirmations, invoices, or notifications.
The Email badge on a document means it arrived via forwarding, not a manual upload.
What ParseMe extracts from emails
- Email body text — unstructured or semi-structured content parsed by AI
- PDF attachments — invoices, receipts, statements through the full extraction pipeline
- Image attachments — PNG, JPEG, TIFF files through OCR
- Inline HTML content — tables and formatted data inside the email body
- Metadata — sender address, subject line, date received
Setting up email forwarding
Find your inbox address on the Dashboard or Settings page. Set up a forwarding rule in Gmail, Outlook, or any email client. You can also BCC your inbox on outgoing emails to automatically capture copies.
ParseMe applies your default extraction template to every email, or configure per-sender rules to use different templates for different suppliers.
Frequently Asked Questions
Is my inbox address permanent?
Yes — your inbox address never changes unless you specifically reset it in Settings.
What happens to email attachments?
Each attachment is processed as a separate document. A forwarded email with 3 PDF invoices creates 3 separate documents in ParseMe.
Can I auto-forward emails?
Yes — set up an automatic forwarding rule in your email client to forward matching emails (e.g. from invoices@supplier.com) to your ParseMe inbox.
