Questions

Can I name the output files from the matched text?

Yes. Use a capture group in the pattern and each part is named from what it matched, which is how you turn one statement run into per-customer files.

Does it work on scanned documents?

Only if there is a text layer. Run OCR first, then split — or chain both steps in a workflow.

Security note

Files are checked to be what they claim (by content, not extension), processed in a sandboxed worker with no network, and deleted on the schedule your plan sets. We do not run antivirus and do not claim to — please do not upload files you do not trust. Read the security page.
