Airparser vs Mailparser

Airparser turns emails, PDFs, and other documents into structured fields you define. Its text and vision language models plus AI OCR handle typed text, scans, and handwriting, with recognition in more than 60 languages. Low-confidence results can wait for human review, correction, and approval before export. Parsed information can be downloaded as Excel, CSV, or JSON, or sent to webhooks and services including Zapier, Make, n8n, Google Sheets, and Airtable. Python post-processing is included in plans, and an AI code assistant can draft and test code from plain-language instructions. Airparser works through the web and an API, with workflow routing and cloud deployment. Each parsed email, document, or PDF page consumes one credit, and unused credits expire at the billing period’s end. A Trial plan is listed at free with 20 credits/month and 30 days’ retention. Paid plans start at $33 a month, billed annually.

Mailparser is a cloud service that extracts structured data from recurring emails and sends it to other applications or downloadable files. Its web tool can generate parsing rules by analyzing email structure, while custom rules can read subjects, headers, bodies, sender and recipient fields, and attachments. Results can be downloaded as XLS, CSV, JSON, or XML. Users can reformat data, restructure fields, calculate sums, minimums, and maximums, and add calculated columns. Listed connections include Salesforce, Slack, QuickBooks Online, Google Sheets, and HTTP webhooks, with API access available. Supported attachments include CSV, XLSX, DOCX, PDF, and TXT; images and scanned documents are not supported. Mailparser says transfers are encrypted, passwords are one-way hashed, and staff access data only when assistance is requested. The 30-day free trial includes 30 credits. Starter monthly billing costs $29.95 a month for 250 emails and 20 inboxes.
