Paper surveys — into data, not an overnight typing session
Fieldwork ended with a pile of forms. Photo a questionnaire — JSON with fields or tabular rows. Built for research agencies, HR after offline surveys, and teams not fully on online forms yet.
File deleted within an hour · No card — 40 recognitions/month after sign-up · Pay by card from your account
Sound familiar?
- Interviewers hand in a batch — nothing is in SPSS or Excel yet.
- Respondents will not fill an online form — paper on site is what you get.
- Hiring typists costs more than the field stage itself.
Documents we handle
| You upload | You get |
|---|---|
| Completed survey / questionnaire | JSON with snake_case field keys |

| Checkboxes and multiple choice | Selected values as text or true/false |
Field names are inferred from the form. You can map to a fixed schema on your side after the API response.

Common questions
What format comes back?
In the text field — a JSON object. Keys are Latin labels derived from the form fields.
Handwritten answers?
Yes, if a human could read them. Illegible parts become [?].
Do I need to review the output?
Yes. Toolsy speeds up typing, not judgment — especially names, numbers, and totals.
Where does my file go?
Deleted about an hour after processing. Not used to train models.
Can I try without a card?
Yes. After sign-up you get an API key with 40 recognitions per month. For steady volume, pick a plan in your account.
Ready to try on your documents?
Start with one file in the tool — no card. For your site or app, set up the API in your account: instant key, 40 free recognitions/month after sign-up.
