How Onward Scout helps
Once browser filling is switched on, Onward Scout fills the official form in a browser on your behalf after your tap, taking a screenshot at every step; until then every field is prepared for you to paste. CAPTCHAs, logins and payments always stay with you, as a handoff with everything ready.
Every answer is drafted from your own documents and cites where each fact came from; anything we can’t source is flagged for you, never invented.
