Inspiration
I was a teacher, and the seven years I spent in charity were as the CEO and a tutor; I came to find out that Many schools, NGOs, farmer groups, churches, and small organizations still use paper forms or scanned PDFs for registration and data collection. Turning those forms into digital systems normally requires rebuilding everything manually.
What it does
Paper2Flow turns an existing paper form or scanned PDF into an editable digital workflow. The system identifies fields, questions, choices and instructions, then creates a mobile-friendly form that can be reviewed, published and used to collect structured responses.
How we built it
We are building Paper2Flow as a web application using AI-assisted document understanding, structured form generation and human review. The project is being developed with Kiro throughout the planning, implementation and testing process.
Challenges we ran into
The main challenge is converting different document layouts accurately without inventing information. Paper2Flow therefore keeps the user in control by allowing every generated field to be reviewed and corrected before publication.
What we hope to achieve
We want to make digitization easier for organizations that already have working paper processes but lack the time or technical skills to rebuild them digitally.
