Hubdoc API
No public API. Hubdoc runs no developer program: no portal, OAuth, webhooks, or sandbox, only hard-coded connectors to Xero, QuickBooks, Bill.com, and file storage. Parent Xero's public API exposes no Hubdoc endpoints; published documents appear only as standard Xero bills.
Frequently asked questions
Hubdoc scores F on the API Report Card. No public API. Hubdoc runs no developer program: no portal, OAuth, webhooks, or sandbox, only hard-coded connectors to Xero, QuickBooks, Bill.com, and file storage. Parent Xero's public API exposes no Hubdoc endpoints; published documents appear only as standard Xero bills.
Without a usable official API, teams fall back on manual exports, file drops, or one-off vendor integrations. The other option is an unofficial API layer like Supergood that automates the authenticated web app directly.
Hubdoc is a cloud-based document capture, data extraction, and document management platform for small businesses, bookkeepers, and accountants.
Vertical: Financial Services, specifically the Accounting / Tax / Bookkeeping document-capture sub-segment (Sanity vertical: Accounting/Tax/Audit, with secondary relevance to Document Management Systems). Snap a photo of a receipt, bill, or invoice in the Hubdoc mobile app; Hubdoc OCRs the document and extracts supplier, amount, date, invoice number, due date. Upload PDFs, images, or scanned documents via the web app.
High installed base, low usage intensity. Hubdoc rides on Xero's global footprint (~3.5M+ Xero subscribers as of 2025), so the addressable surface is in the millions, and a large fraction of Xero firms have at least connected Hubdoc.
Source documents: receipts, bills, invoices, statements (PDF, JPG, PNG, mobile photo). Extracted header fields: supplier name, total amount, tax amount, currency, invoice/receipt number, document date, due date, account/category mapping suggestion.
Founded 2011, ~15 years old as of 2026. Architecturally, Hubdoc is a pre-modern-fintech web app: server-rendered with a thin SPA layer, OCR-first rather than ML-first, no GraphQL or modern API surface, no public developer portal, no webhooks, no OAuth, no SSO.
Grades measure one thing: can a customer's engineering team get their own data out programmatically? We check six things (whether a real API exists, how access is gated, data coverage, auth quality, docs and developer experience, and stability) and roll them into a letter grade. Grades get re-verified, and they only move on evidence.
