How AI is used
PaperSurvey.io is a cloud-based tool designed to convert physical paper surveys into digital data. It uses optical mark recognition (OMR) for checkboxes and AI for handwriting recognition across more than 50 languages. The workflow involves designing a survey online, printing it as a PDF, and batch scanning the completed forms.
The software supports users who rely on paper collection due to in-person response rates or a lack of digital access for participants. It supports over 12 question types and includes unique page marking to help maintain response integrity.
Buyers should confirm that available export formats align with their analysis tools. Additionally, some manual verification may be required for low-quality scans or difficult handwriting.
