Mailparser vs Parseur

Mailparser

• Copying lead or order emails into a CRM or spreadsheet
• Recurring emails that follow a consistent layout
• Teams that want rule-based extraction without writing code

Parseur

• Turning recurring emails such as leads or order notifications into spreadsheet rows
• Accounts payable teams extracting invoice and purchase order data
• Developers who want a document extraction API with webhooks

Mailparser

• There is no free plan: the trial lasts 30 days and includes 30 credits.
• Images and scanned documents cannot be parsed; the vendor points to its separate product, Docparser, for documents that need OCR.
• On Starter, multi-factor authentication, duplicate detection, webhook retries and modifying extracted data are paid add-ons, and no team members are listed.
• When a paid plan runs out of credits, new emails wait in the queue until more credits are bought, the plan is upgraded or the cycle resets.

Parseur

• The free tier stops at 20 pages a month with 1 user and 90 days of document retention.
• Multi-user accounts and Python post-processing need a Scale tier plan of 10,000 pages a month or more, which starts at $499 a month.
• At 100% of the monthly quota new documents stop processing until renewal, an upgrade or a top-up. Unused credits on monthly plans do not carry over.
• Data is processed and stored in the European Union, and the site lists HIPAA compliance as in progress.

Mailparser

Custom parsing rules

Rules that you set up pull fields from an email's subject, header, body and attachments, and can capture details such as the sender and recipients.

Automatic rule generation and templates

A parser creator analyzes the structure of an email and generates rules for it, and a library of rule templates covers emails from popular sites in several industries.

Attachment parsing

Text is read from PDF, DOC, DOCX, XLS, XLSX, CSV, TXT and XML attachments, and spreadsheet rows can be extracted as tables. Images and scanned documents are not supported.

Routing to inboxes

Emails in different formats can all be forwarded to one address; routing rules then pass each message to the inbox it belongs to, so no mail filters are needed on the sending side.

Exports, integrations and webhooks

Parsed data downloads as XLS, CSV, JSON or XML, or is sent on to tools such as Google Sheets and Salesforce, to Zapier, or to any endpoint by webhook.

Data manipulation and cleanup

Extracted data can be reformatted, with sums, minimums, maximums and calculated columns. Emails and parsed data can be erased automatically minutes, hours or days after parsing.

Parseur

Document capture

Each workflow gets a mailbox with its own email address. Documents come in by forwarded email, drag-and-drop upload or the REST API, in more than 25 file formats.

AI and template parsing engines

Vision AI reads visual layouts, Text AI reads plain text, and templates handle fixed forms. All three can run in one mailbox, and table extraction covers line items.

Built-in OCR

Scans and photos are read by OCR that the vendor says covers more than 200 languages, including handwriting.

Normalization and validation

Dates, numbers, addresses and choice fields are formatted and checked against the mailbox schema. Scale tier plans add Python post-processing for custom logic.

Exports and integrations

Parsed data syncs to Google Sheets, downloads as Excel, CSV or JSON, or goes out by webhook and through Zapier, Make, Power Automate and n8n. These are included on every plan.

Logs, alerts and retention

Every processing step is logged, with alerts for failed documents, failed exports and quota limits. Retention is set per mailbox, from 1 day up to the plan's maximum.
