Frequently asked questions

Can it read handwritten logbooks?

Yes. Xcelify's AI OCR is trained on real-world handwritten entries — cursive, block letters, mixed styles — and preserves the row-by-row structure of your logbook so nothing gets shuffled.

What file formats can I upload?

PDFs, JPG, PNG, HEIC photos from your phone, and multi-page scans. You can upload a single page or a whole batch of pages at once.

What do I get as output?

A clean .xlsx spreadsheet with your columns, ready to open in Excel, Google Sheets, or Numbers. You can also export to CSV for import into any other system.

Is my data secure?

Your documents are processed over encrypted connections and never used to train models. Files can be deleted from your account at any time.
