Author: Deepak Kumar Keywords: SOTI Snap, Apple, Android --- # You Draw It and the SOTI Snap AI Form Builder Makes It by Deepak Kumar Jul 16, 2024 Digital transformation is a priority for [74% of organizations](https://explodingtopics.com/blog/digital-transformation-stats). Is it one of yours? Moving away from pen-and-paper is a smart business strategy. But [45% of executives](http://soti.nethttps//sharpencx.com/11-step-digital-transformation-framework/#:~:text=45%25%20of%20executives%20don’t%20know%20where%20to%20begin%20when%20it%20comes%20to%20developing%20a%20digital%20transformation%20framework%20%26%20strategy.) don’t know where to start. And [62% of organizations](http://soti.nethttps//cz.soti.net/resources/blog/2024/spring-2024-soti-snap-update/#:~:text=it’s%20expensive%20to%20digitize%20forms%20and%20build%20web%20apps.%20it’s%20why%2062%25%20of%20organizations%20view%20cost%20as%20a%20barrier%20to%20digital%20transformation.) say cost is a barrier to digitization. Digitizing manual, inefficient paper-based processes sounds daunting. But it really isn’t. If you already have the paper forms – or just an idea for a new digital form – you’re halfway there. Just give your forms or ideas to the SOTI Snap AI Form Builder and it does the rest. In moments, you have digital versions of forms your employees are familiar with, ready to be used on devices they’re already comfortable with. Or you have brand new forms designed to meet your process requirements. It's that simple. Here’s how it works. ## **SOTI Snap AI Form Builder: Digitization Made Easier** The release of [SOTI Snap 2024.1](https://cz.soti.net/resources/blog/2024/spring-2024-soti-snap-update/) introduced a powerful new AI Form Builder. SOTI Snap uses generative AI to take you from paper to digital in literal seconds. Digitize your paper-based forms using any one of these approaches: - Sketch a form on a piece of paper - Type out what you want - Upload an existing PDF document ## **Sketch a Form on a Piece of Paper** You’ve got an idea for a form. It’s simple. You sketch it out on the back of a napkin in about 30 seconds. If you go the traditional route, what took you 30 seconds to draw is going to [cost $32,000 (USD)](https://www.businessofapps.com/app-developers/research/app-development-cost/#:~:text=price%20cost%20for%20a%20app%20with%20a%20basic%20user%20interface%20and%20a%20set%20of%20basic%20features%20ranges%20from%20%2416%2C000%20to%20%2432%2C000%2C%20) to digitize as an app. The SOTI Snap AI Form Builder bypasses the effort and expense required to go from paper to digital. Take a picture of that napkin and upload it to SOTI Snap. It identifies the fields and text and transforms it into a digital form. Happy with it? Publish and deploy it instantly. Want to edit? The drag-and-drop widget interface in SOTI Snap makes it easy to add additional elements. ![](https://play.vidyard.com/iEbRFyejZmh4iYrqCETh8s.jpg) ## **Type Out What You Want** You have a paper form that your company has used for years. Most of it isn’t relevant anymore. You can’t draw it, but you can describe what you want to keep in it. It takes [6 to 9 months](https://sloboda-studio.com/blog/how-long-does-it-take-to-make-an-app/#:~:text=Average%20mobile%20app%20development%20time%20can%20take%206%20to%209%20months.&text=However%2C%20as%20practice%20shows%2C%20each,average%20at%20various%20project%20stages.) to develop an app to serve as a form. Imagine telling someone your digital form idea – and waiting nine months for it to come to fruition. Tell SOTI Snap instead by typing your request via a built-in prompt field within the AI Form Builder. No need to be overly complex or descriptive, either. Here are some examples of what you can write: - Create an equipment order form. - Generate a contact us form with name, email, subject and message fields. - Create a form to order laptops with details such as name, phone, date, model, budget and numerical quantity. SOTI Snap takes your request and quickly generates the form. As with uploading a sketch, you can also edit the form using drag-and-drop widgets. ![](https://play.vidyard.com/HJM9erhomSDNHx2VuWEea3.jpg) ## **Upload an Existing PDF Document** You don’t need to draw a sketch or type your idea if the form already exists as a PDF which must be printed to be filled out. There are numerous [problems with paper documents](https://soti.net/resources/blog/2024/stuck-in-manual-the-costs-of-delaying-digital-transformation/) (all USD): - They’re expensive as it costs $20 to file a paper document and $220 to reproduce a lost one. - They’re not secure as 40% of all data breaches are paper-based. - They’re unreliable as for every 100 pieces of data manually collected, there are 10 mistakes. Just upload the form to the SOTI Snap AI Form Builder. It identifies the fields on the form and digitizes them. It’s the same form, but digital. Make changes as needed. Deploy as necessary. Ensure safe storage. All without the costs and time of updating, printing and distributing paper forms. **GO MULTILINGUAL** Upload PDFs in over 100 languages and SOTI Snap will detect and digitize in the same language as the PDF. ## **Discover the SOTI Snap AI Form Builder** Going from paper to digital is smart. And it doesn’t need to involve endless and expensive development to create a digital version of a paper form. As demonstrated, the SOTI Snap AI Form Builder overcomes them. Think you need thousands of dollars to digitize? Think you need to hire hard-to-find developers? No and no. If there’s an idea, anyone in your organization can start digital transformation. And the SOTI Snap AI Form Builder can help take it across the finish line in seconds. Here’s how you can try it yourself.
