AI field detection animation A static loan application PDF being turned into a fillable form. A scan sweeps down the document and, as it passes each blank, outlines it as a detected field and numbers it. Each detection adds a row to the Data Fields panel alongside, carrying the generated field name and the type of data it expects — full_name as Text, date_of_birth as Date, loan_amount_requested as Number, signature as Signature. When the scan finishes, the panel shows the resulting API payload and the document is marked API-ready. loan-application.pdf Detect Fields LOAN APPLICATION 1. APPLICANT 2.
