Frequently Asked Questions

How secure is automated processing for sensitive government documents?

Files are encrypted during processing and automatically deleted afterward. The system doesn't store documents permanently or train on government data.

Can the system handle different government form layouts?

Yes, the AI adapts to various form structures, though non-standard layouts may require custom field selection for optimal results.

What happens if citizen handwriting is unclear on forms?

Handwritten text recognition is limited compared to typed text. Forms with unclear handwriting may need manual review for accuracy.
