AutoEntry charges per credit.
InvoiceParser Pro is flat-rate, line items included.
Every invoice with line items costs 2 credits on AutoEntry — effectively double the per-document cost. On InvoiceParser Pro, line items are extracted on every plan at no surcharge, with automatic math validation and direct push to QuickBooks, Xero, and Zoho Books.

The credit math AutoEntry doesn’t lead with
Credit-based pricing reads cheap until you map it to real document volume. A typical AP invoice with line items is 2 credits, not 1.
A 500-credit Platinum plan ($103/mo) translates to roughly 250 line-item invoices — comparable to InvoiceParser Pro’s $79 Solo plan (200 invoices) or $229 Firm plan (1,000 invoices) on flat-rate.
InvoiceParser Pro vs AutoEntry — feature comparison
AutoEntry is broader (bank statements, Sage native). InvoiceParser Pro is deeper on the invoice and cleaner on pricing.
| Feature | InvoiceParser Pro | AutoEntry |
|---|---|---|
| Pricing model | Flat-rate monthly | Credit-based (50–2,500 credits/mo) |
| Cost per invoice with line items | Same as without — 1 invoice | 2 credits (effectively 2x) |
| Starting price | $79/mo (200 invoices) | $13/mo (50 credits) |
| Mid-tier monthly price | $229/mo (1,000 invoices) | $103/mo (500 credits = 250 line-item invoices) |
| Line item extraction | Every plan, no upcharge | Yes — costs double credits |
| Math validation | Automatic on every invoice | Not included |
| Per-field confidence scoring | High / Medium / Low per field | Not exposed |
| QuickBooks Online push | OAuth — line items mapped | Yes — bill push |
| Xero push | OAuth — line items mapped | Yes — bill push |
| Sage push | Excel/CSV export only | Yes — native (Sage owns AutoEntry) |
| Zoho Books push | OAuth — line items mapped | Not available |
| Multi-currency (150+) | SWIFT BIC disambiguation | Yes — major currencies |
| Bank statement extraction | Not included | Yes (3 credits/page) |
| Unlimited users + clients | Yes (Firm plan +) | Yes — all plans |
| Free trial | 14 days, 50 invoices, no card | Free trial — 25 credits |
Comparison reflects publicly documented behavior at time of writing. AutoEntry is owned by Sage; integration depth with Sage is correspondingly stronger than third-party equivalents.
Why teams switch from AutoEntry to InvoiceParser Pro
AutoEntry is a real product with real users, especially in the Sage ecosystem. The most common reasons for switching are pricing predictability, line-item economics, and the math validation gap.
Line items don’t cost double
Every AP invoice extraction with line items burns 2 credits on AutoEntry. On InvoiceParser Pro, line items are the default — included on the $79 Solo plan with no upcharge per invoice.
Math validation built in
Subtotal + tax + shipping − discount = total. InvoiceParser Pro runs that check on every invoice and surfaces mismatches before export. AutoEntry returns the extracted fields; whether they reconcile is on the reviewer.
Predictable monthly cost
Credit-based plans surprise you when a client uploads 200 invoices in a single batch. Flat-rate plans don’t. The $229 Firm plan covers 1,000 invoices regardless of how the volume is distributed across the month.
Real teams, real results
“Your software handles real-world invoices very well. The ability to export to QuickBooks, Xero, and Zoho — along with Excel — makes the platform very versatile.”

When each tool is the right pick
AutoEntry may fit when
- The team is already on Sage and wants the tightest possible Sage integration.
- Bank statement extraction at volume is a primary need.
- Invoice volume is low and credit-based pricing genuinely beats flat-rate at your scale.
- Receipt and expense extraction matters more than line-item depth on bills.
InvoiceParser Pro may fit when
- Vendor invoices with line items are the bulk of the volume.
- You want flat-rate pricing without the credit math on every plan choice.
- Math validation matters — you’ve been burned by vendor totals that didn’t reconcile.
- QuickBooks, Xero, or Zoho Books is your primary accounting tool.
- Multi-currency invoices outside US/UK markets are a regular thing.
Frequently asked questions
How does InvoiceParser Pro pricing compare to AutoEntry credits?
AutoEntry charges credit-based: an invoice without line items costs 1 credit, an invoice with line items costs 2 credits, and a bank statement costs 3 credits per page. So a typical AP invoice with line items effectively doubles the per-document cost. InvoiceParser Pro is flat-rate: $79/month for 200 invoices on Solo, $229/month for 1,000 invoices on Firm, $499/month for 5,000 invoices on Firm Pro. Every invoice — with or without line items — counts as one. No per-feature surcharge.
Does InvoiceParser Pro extract line items the way AutoEntry does?
Yes — every line item with description, quantity, unit price, line total, and tax amount. The difference is pricing: AutoEntry charges 2 credits for an invoice with line items vs 1 credit without. InvoiceParser Pro extracts line items on every plan at no surcharge. Line items aren't an upgrade path — they're the default.
What does InvoiceParser Pro offer that AutoEntry doesn't?
Three things in particular. (1) Math validation — InvoiceParser Pro automatically checks whether subtotal + tax + shipping − discount equals the stated total and flags arithmetic mismatches before export. AutoEntry doesn't run this check. (2) Per-field confidence scoring at High / Medium / Low so reviewers know where to focus. (3) Direct OAuth push to Zoho Books in addition to QuickBooks Online and Xero — AutoEntry's primary integrations are Sage, QuickBooks, and Xero.
Does InvoiceParser Pro work with QuickBooks, Xero, and Sage?
Direct OAuth push to QuickBooks Online, Xero, and Zoho Books with line items, GL coding, and tax mapping included. Sage is supported via Excel/CSV export rather than a native push — if you're moving from AutoEntry primarily because of Sage, this is the integration trade-off to weigh. For QuickBooks and Xero, InvoiceParser Pro's push includes line item depth that AutoEntry's bill creation doesn't always carry through.
Will I run out of credits on AutoEntry the way I would on a metered plan?
AutoEntry's credit model rolls unused credits forward 90 days, but a busy month can exhaust the bucket — and going over typically requires upgrading the plan or buying additional credits. InvoiceParser Pro's flat-rate plans give you a predictable monthly invoice ceiling (200 / 1,000 / 5,000) with no per-document add-ons; if a client suddenly uploads 200 invoices, the cost is the same. Easier to plan firm budgets around.
Can I migrate from AutoEntry without losing data?
Migration is forward-only — point your invoice intake (email forwarding, drag-and-drop) at InvoiceParser Pro and the new bills start flowing through. There's no historical data export needed since the value is in the structured bills posted to your accounting system, which already live in QuickBooks/Xero/Sage. The 14-day free trial gives you 50 invoices to validate before switching the intake permanently.
