Lido vs Nanonets: which one for your invoices?
Lido is the lighter of the two: AI extraction with no templates to build, landing in a spreadsheet interface. Nanonets is a workflow platform with trainable models and approvals that feeds an ERP or accounting system. Choose Lido for mixed layouts from many different suppliers, with no setup; choose Nanonets for an accounts-payable workflow with approvals, not just a file.
Both products were checked on 22 September 2026 against the vendors' own public pages (lido.app, nanonets.com). We describe what each is built for and how it charges, and link to the vendor rather than quote figures that go out of date. Neither vendor paid to appear here and we earn nothing if you choose one. The third column is our own product, written to the same standard.

| How it works | AI extraction with no per-vendor templates to build | Trainable AI models plus workflow automation | AI extraction with the original page beside every value for review |
| Pricing model | Subscription tiers by volume | Per-page tiers rising to an enterprise quote | Flat monthly plans by document count, after a no-card trial |

When neither is the right shape
Both are more than some jobs need. If what you have is a folder of supplier invoices from different suppliers — PDFs, scans, photos taken on a phone — and what you want is one spreadsheet you can trust, Invoices to Spreadsheets does only that: every invoice and its line items in an editable table organised by project, each value shown beside the original page so you can check it, exported to Excel or CSV. It does not post into accounting software, and it is new, without the years of production history these products have. Try one invoice free, without an account.
