Hey community!

I want to validate a problem for some Airtable users who have to spend a lot of time turning paper documents into Airtable records.

I think it would be useful for a user to be able to take a picture of a document and have it automatically fill out the right fields in a record.

If that’s not clear, I explain what I mean in this video: [https://youtu.be/k4RSGC2iecQ](https://youtu.be/k4RSGC2iecQ) (41 seconds)

If this is a problem that you or your clients are experiencing, let me know!  
If you want to speak privately, you can fill out this form [here](https://airtable.com/appafp6Lmjx6JWTQT/pagXrEyUU67hnWu3Y/form).

Thank you

Sort of doing it with GPT and Make now for my scribbles, like size and weight measurement.

Cool to here that you already have a working solution!  
Are you uploading the picture via the Airtable app? Or directly to Make?
