Why it matters
Turn identity documents into usable data
ID cards and passports contain critical information for onboarding, verification and administrative workflows. Heyyel Data Extractor helps you capture that information in a structured format, reducing the repetitive work involved in manual data entry.
Reduce manual entry
Stop retyping names, document numbers, dates and nationality details into forms, spreadsheets or internal systems.
Extract the fields that matter
Capture core identity fields or use custom data extraction when your process requires fields beyond the standard identity document setup.
Use structured output
Export extracted identity data to XLS, CSV or JSON so it can be reviewed, shared or used in downstream workflows.

How it works
From identity document to structured output
The workflow follows the same logic as Heyyel Data Extractor, with a document type preset that helps you start faster.
Upload your file
Upload an ID card or passport in PDF, PNG, JPG, WebP or TIFF format.
Choose ID Card / Passport
Select the identity document type to start with suggested extraction fields.
Configure fields and language
Edit labels, keys, field types and required settings. Add extraction hints and use auto-detect or choose the document language manually.
Run extraction
Heyyel Data Extractor processes the document, using OCR when needed, and identifies the values that match your requested fields. If you want the distinction in more detail, see OCR vs data extraction.
Review the results
Check the extracted fields alongside the document preview before exporting or using the data.
Export your data
Download the output in XLS, CSV or JSON depending on how you want to use it next.
OCR + extraction

OCR answers: “What text is inside this document?”
Heyyel Data Extractor answers: “Which identity data do I actually need?” Learn more about the broader process in our guide to how AI document data extraction works.
