Our verdict

FormNinja captures data from a photographed physical document using image recognition, then uses a language model to map that data accurately onto the fields of a web form, adapting to different document formats. Files can also be uploaded from a computer or Google Drive instead of photographed. Accuracy depends on high-quality images, the mapping system takes some getting used to, and capturing personal documents this way raises privacy questions.
