ABSTRACT:
Systems and methods are described that facilitate assisting a user in filling forms. The invention can parse untagged media, such as email, etc., to identify elements that can be employed to populate a form. Identified elements can be automatically inserted into corresponding fields in a form, and status indicators can be associated therewith and indicated to a user in order to alert the user that review of a particular field in the form is warranted. Additionally, the untagged media and the form can be concurrently presented to the user to facilitate user supervision and/or interaction during assisted form filling.
