Okay. Yes. This sounds like the dumbest question.

I just have a PDF that has a bunch of data in the ugliest possible way and I’ve attempted to pull it into an Excel sheet by myself and mess with the powershell to make it better, but it’s awful, I’m too novice, and I frankly don’t have the time.

This is a personal request, not actually condoned by my workplace, but the data wouldn’t be sensitive. So could I find someone on like fiverr? Or, I dunno where to even look honestly.

Any suggestions?

      Try using an LLM.

      I tried to timebox myself with a Python OCR solution, but ended up spending way more time than I should’ve, without ever arriving at a good solution.

      I then tried using Qwen 235B via Brave’s Leo AI, and got some okay results (I think you’ll have better luck with commercial AI models; I just don’t have an account with them atm)
