Veryfi Bank Statement Batch Processing Limits
Veryfi's 15-page document limit, 60 requests/second cap, and 2-3 hour sync delays create critical bottlenecks for accounting firms processing hundreds of client statements during month-end close.
Veryfi's Batch Processing Restrictions
Understanding the specific limitations that impact high-volume accounting workflows.
15-Page Document Limit
Each document capped at 15 pages. Multi-page bank statements get truncated, losing critical transaction data.
60 Requests/Second Cap
Rate limiting forces sequential processing. Uploading 100 statements? Expect 90+ second minimum wait.
2-3 Hour Sync Delays
Bulk upload via Dropbox/Box/Google Drive requires "Reverse Cloud Sync" - adding hours to your workflow.
300 Documents/Month (Web App)
Web interface users hit monthly caps. Managing 50+ clients? You'll exceed limits in week one.
Additional Technical Constraints
- 20MB file size limit for API uploads (10MB for web uploader)
- 50 results per page maximum when retrieving processed statements
- Template training required for optimal accuracy - adds setup overhead
How Batch Limits Impact Real Workflows
The compounding effect of processing restrictions during peak accounting periods.
Scenario: Month-End Close for 50 Clients
With Veryfi's Limits
- •50 clients × 3 accounts avg = 150 statements
- •15-page limit = statements over 15 pages must be split manually
- •60 req/sec cap = 150 seconds minimum upload time (sequential)
- •Bulk sync option = 2-3 hour wait before processing starts
- •300/month web limit exceeded = forced API integration complexity
Total Time Impact: 3-4+ hours of waiting and workarounds
With Zera Books Unlimited
- •Upload all 150 statements in single batch
- •No page limits - process 50+ page statements without splitting
- •Parallel processing - all statements processed simultaneously
- •Results in 8-12 minutes (typical for 150 documents)
- •No monthly limits - process 1,000+ statements at same speed
Total Time Impact: 8-12 minutes, zero workarounds
Scenario: Tax Season Bulk Processing (200+ Clients)
Veryfi's Compounding Constraints
200 clients × 12 months × 2 accounts avg = 4,800 statements to process
- 📊60 req/sec limit = 80 minutes minimum just for uploads (assuming no errors)
- ⏱️2-3 hour bulk sync delays multiply across batches
- 🔧Must build custom queuing logic to respect rate limits
- 💰API integration required - no simple web interface option

- ✓Parallel processing across entire queue - no rate limiting
- ✓Simple web interface - no API integration needed

Why Processing Limits Create Real Business Problems
The hidden costs of batch size restrictions and rate limiting for accounting firms.
Deadline Pressure
Month-end close deadlines don't care about 2-3 hour sync delays. When you need results in 30 minutes, processing queues become critical blockers.
Staff Productivity Loss
Rate limits force sequential uploads. Your team waits for batches to complete instead of processing multiple clients in parallel.
Growth Constraints
Monthly document caps mean your software doesn't scale with your client base. Adding 10 new clients? You hit limits faster every month.
Data Integrity Risks
15-page limits force manual PDF splitting. Every manual step introduces risk of missing pages, duplicate data, or processing errors.
The Workaround Tax
Accounting firms using Veryfi spend 5-8 hours per month managing batch limits:
- •Splitting multi-page PDFs before upload
- •Building custom queuing scripts to respect rate limits
- •Waiting for bulk sync processes to complete
- •Coordinating API access when web limits are exceeded
At $50/hour average bookkeeper rate: $250-400/month lost to workarounds
