Digitize Government Forms & Improve Public Access to Services Online
FormVu transforms fillable PDF forms into more accessible HTML web forms, eliminating the need for citizens to physically submit paperwork. HTML forms render seamlessly across all devices, including desktops, smartphones, and tablets, significantly increasing form completion rates and reducing barriers to public service access.
By digitising government forms with FormVu, agencies can make public services more accessible to every citizen, regardless of how or where they access the internet.
Accelerate Government Service Processing and Response Times
Data submitted through HTML forms is instantly delivered via a submit URL, giving staff real-time access to citizen responses using any backend system. This eliminates delays caused by manual data entry, document scanning and paper-based processing.
