Workflow name
Benchmark invoice data extraction accuracy with easybits

What This Workflow Does

Upload the same invoice in different qualities (original PDF, scanned copy, phone photo, compressed JPEG, etc.) and instantly see how accurately each field was extracted. The workflow compares every extracted value against a fixed ground truth and returns a per-field pass/fail report with an overall accuracy percentage – directly in the browser.

How It Works

  1. Upload – A document is submitted through the n8n web form
  2. Extract – easybits Extractor processes the file and returns structured data
  3. Compare – Each extracted field is compared against the known correct values
  4. Report – A completion screen shows which fields matched and the overall accuracy

Setup Guide

1. Create Your easybits Extractor Pipeline

  1. Go to extractor.easybits.tech and create a new pipeline
  2. Upload one of the example invoices as your reference document – you can find them here.
  3. Click Auto-Mapping – the Extractor will automatically detect and set up all fields for you
  4. Save the pipeline and copy your Pipeline ID and API Key

2. Connect Your easybits Credentials

Open the easybits Extractor node in the workflow and connect your credentials (Pipeline ID & API Key). The node will use the pipeline you just created – no further configuration needed.

3. Adjust the Ground Truth (if needed)

The Ground Truth node contains the expected values for all 10 fields. If you're testing with a different document, update these values to match your reference invoice.

4. Activate & Test the workflow by uploading your first test document


🔄 Want to Test a Different Extraction Solution?

You can swap out the easybits Extractor node for an HTTP Request node pointing at any other extraction API. As long as your HTTP node returns the same field names under json.data (e.g. data.invoice_number, data.amount_paid, etc.), the rest of the workflow – ground truth comparison, validation, and results display – works identically. This makes it easy to benchmark multiple solutions side by side using the exact same test documents and accuracy criteria.

4. Reproducing the Workflow from Scratch

  1. 1. Download the workflow JSON

    Use the JSON export at /data/workflows/14957/14957.json as the source template for this automation.

  2. 2. Import the template into n8n

    Open n8n, import the downloaded JSON, and review each node before activating the workflow.

  3. 3. Configure credentials and variables

    Replace placeholder credentials, API keys, webhook URLs, account IDs, and environment-specific values with your own settings.

  4. 4. Test with sample data

    Run the workflow manually or in a staging workspace, inspect node output, and confirm downstream systems receive the expected data.

  5. 5. Activate and monitor

    Enable the workflow only after testing, then monitor executions, errors, and rate limits during the first production runs.

5. General Notes & Resources

Review imported nodes carefully before activation. This catalog entry is intended to help you inspect the workflow structure, understand required services, and find related templates faster.

Node names, credentials, schedules, webhook paths, and external service limits may need adjustment for your workspace.
