Arthize lets insurance teams convert a PDF to Excel in a private workspace — free, with no watermark. Converting PDF to Excel detects table structure and rebuilds rows and columns into an editable .xlsx, OCRing scanned tables first.

## Why insurance agents convert a PDF to Excel

An agent merges a policy, declarations and endorsements into one client file, has the claim form filled and signed, and redacts personal identifiers before archiving.

**Built for policies.** Whether it's policies, claim forms, declarations, Arthize's pdf to excel keeps the work inside your private workspace. Claims contain health and financial data; a private workspace keeps that confidential.

## What matters when you convert a PDF to Excel

Table detection is what turns a PDF table into real spreadsheet cells instead of pasted text.

Scanned tables must be OCR'd before the numbers become editable.

Complex merged-cell layouts may need a quick manual tidy after conversion.
