Photograph the questionnaires.
Let the system transcribe them.

From assigning school programmes to preparing reports. Instructors verify the answers; the system handles transcription and the information needed for reporting.

Executive summary

Challenge
Instructors were transcribing paper questionnaires after each school programme.
Approach
Connect programme administration, digitisation and reporting in one workflow.
Solution
Assignments and calendar events, AI extraction, human review and completeness checks.
Outcome
Approximately 35 minutes saved per programme. An indicative 95% reduction in processing errors, based on implementation experience, not an independent study.

How it works

From a school programme to complete reporting data.

01 / 06

Instructors know where to go and when.

The system assigns a programme to an instructor and adds it to their calendar. Dates, locations and programme details are kept together.

After the session, photograph the questionnaires.

Students complete a paper questionnaire at the end of the programme. The instructor uploads the photos to its record.

Ready for digitisation

  • Programme completed
  • Questionnaires completed
  • Photos uploaded

No need to type every answer again.

03 / 06

Photographs become structured data.

AI extracts responses and transcribes written answers. The results are prepared for the instructor to review.

04 / 06

Review the answers instead of retyping them.

The instructor checks the extracted answers and corrects any mistakes. AI prepares the transcription; a person confirms its accuracy.

Human review remains part of the workflow

05 / 06

The numbers need to add up.

If the number of questionnaires differs from attendance, the system asks for an explanation. Missing records cannot simply go unnoticed.

Illustrative completeness check

20students attended
15questionnaires uploaded

Five questionnaires are missing. Explain the difference before submitting.

06 / 06

Submitted data becomes reports.

The system prepares analytics and information for the grants team automatically. The team uses these outputs to report how funding was used.

Outputs from processed data

  • Analytical reports
  • Information for the grants team
  • Evidence for grant reporting

Reports are prepared for the organisation to submit to the relevant funding body.

Challenge

Every school session ended with manual data entry.

Linkin Sphere, z. s. runs school programmes on the internet, AI, cyberbullying and working with photographs. Students complete a questionnaire at the end of each session.

Instructors used to transcribe the paper responses by hand. Each additional programme meant more administration and more opportunities for errors.

One system from assignment to submission.

I designed and built a system that assigns programmes to instructors, gives them the location, schedule and delivery details, and adds the event to their calendar.

After a session, the instructor uploads photos of the questionnaires. AI extracts the answers and transcribes the text. The instructor reviews the results, makes corrections and submits the programme.

Checks also catch missing information.

The system compares related records. If an instructor enters 20 attendees but uploads only 15 questionnaires, they must explain the difference. The record contains both the answers and the reason the set is incomplete.

Accuracy remains the instructor's responsibility. Their work shifts from typing every answer to checking prepared data and resolving discrepancies.

Analytics and grant reporting from the same data.

Submitted data feeds automatically generated analytical reports. The system also prepares a report for the grants team to document the use of funding.

The grants team uses these outputs for submissions to public authorities or the Czech Ministry of Education, depending on the grant. The system prepares the reports; their formal submission remains the organisation's next step.

Before

Instructors transcribed answers from paper questionnaires by hand.

After

They photograph the forms, review the transcription and explain any discrepancies. Reports are generated from the processed data.

Outcome in day-to-day use

Less than CZK 0.02 in AI processing cost per questionnaire. Refining the AI instructions brought the average processing cost down to CZK 0.01875 per questionnaire. This is the AI processing cost, not the total cost of running the application or reviewing results.

Approximately 35 minutes saved per programme, on average. Instructors spend less time on administration after each session.

Experience from this implementation suggests an approximately 95% reduction in processing errors. This is an indicative figure from practice, not an independently verified measurement.

The system is complete and has been handed over to the client. It connects programme administration, questionnaire digitisation, data checks and reporting.

The client's perspective

“Mr Hůle developed an internal application for our team to digitise paper questionnaires using AI scanning. It saves our staff considerable time and administrative work by bringing several previously separate processes together. We particularly appreciate his fast communication, flexibility as requirements evolve, and willingness to keep looking for a solution until it works exactly as we need. This approach is why we are continuing to work with him on further stages of development.”Director, Linkin Sphere, z. s.
