AI Invoice Automation

One-click Gmail-to-Excel invoice drafts, powered by Claude.

Problem

Manual triage of purchase-request emails: read the thread, extract line items, research prices, produce an invoice in Excel, draft the reply. Hours of repetitive work per day.

Approach

  • 1

    Desktop web app (Node + Vite/React) that reads Gmail via the Gmail API.

  • 2

    Anthropic SDK extracts structured line items from unstructured email threads.

  • 3

    ExcelJS produces a branded invoice; the reply draft lands in Gmail ready to send.

Outcome

  • Core features implemented and in active use.
  • Actively refining extraction accuracy and price research.
