HOW FORM FILLING WORKS

Fill one PDF form from
all your documents at once.

Add every document at once: PDFs, scans, photos, Word files and typed notes.
Fyllyo reads them together on your Mac, puts each fact in its field and shows where it came from.
Where two documents disagree, it leaves the field for you and says why. Here are the five steps.

How does Fyllyo combine several documents into one form?

Fyllyo takes each fact from the documents that state it, and when they disagree, it leaves the field for you. In a recorded run, Fyllyo filled a test client’s amended return (Form 1040-X) from four documents in 27 seconds. It filled 46 fields and left 8 for review.

When documents disagree: the worksheet gave the corrected income as 88,750, but the original return’s 86,420 plus the W-2c’s 2,150 is 88,570. Fyllyo left that line and the lines worked out from it empty, with the note “worked out from an amount the documents disagree on (88,750 vs 88,570)”. It also left the two masked Social Security numbers for the preparer to complete.

01 / CHOOSE A FORM

Start with the
form you need.

Pick a ready-made form, like I-864 or 1040-X. Need a form that isn’t there? Add the blank fillable PDF once. Fyllyo learns how to fill it and tests itself on test clients before you use it. Then you reuse it with each new set of documents.

How to add your own form →
The Fill a form screen in Fyllyo, listing the built-in forms 1040-X (Amended U.S. Individual Income Tax Return, 2024) and I-864 (Affidavit of Support), with a button to add your own form.

02 / ADD YOUR DOCUMENTS

Bring the files.
Skip the retyping.

Add PDFs, scans, photos, Word files and typed notes, such as an email or answers from a phone call. A saved client can stand in for documents you’ve used before. Fyllyo reads every page on your Mac with Apple’s text recognition and uploads nothing. If a PDF has a password, Fyllyo asks for it.

Five files added for a 1040-X: a late 1099-INT, the 2024 Form 1040 as filed, the client's email, the preparer's worksheet and a W-2c, under the list of what to include.

03 / FILL WITH LOCAL AI

Let Fyllyo
fill the form.

Fyllyo finds the facts the form needs across all your files and puts each one in its field. The AI only reads. Formulas tested for the form do the rest. They work out annual income from pay-stub dates, carry amounts from line to line, and turn “12 AUG 1974” into 08/12/1974.

The local model (about 5 GB) downloads when your trial or licence starts. After that, forms fill offline.

Fyllyo filling the form on the computer: reading the documents is done, finding the facts is in progress, then checking and filling the form. 8 seconds in.

04 / REVIEW THE ANSWERS

Check the details.
See the source.

The filled PDF sits beside a list of every field. Click either one to see where an answer came from. You see the line in your documents and the file name. For worked-out answers, you see the facts behind them. Key facts such as names, IDs and income are always marked to confirm.

When Fyllyo isn’t sure, it leaves the field empty and says why, for example “the documents give two different amounts (129,375 vs 258,750)”. Correct anything here or on the form.

Watch the recorded 1040-X example →
The review screen after filling Form 1040-X for James and Rachel Okafor: 52 fields filled in 22 seconds, 16 to check. The tax year answer, 2024, is shown with the line from the client's 1099-INT it came from and a box to confirm it.

05 / SAVE YOUR PDF

Your form.
Ready for the next step.

Your edits save as you go. Save the filled PDF, or open it in the editor to sign, redact or print. The completed file stays on your computer, ready to send or file yourself.

Fyllyo prepares forms. It doesn’t e-file them or provide legal or tax advice.

After review, every answer is checked and Fyllyo confirms: Saved Okafor 2024 Form 1040-X.pdf, 52 fields filled in 22 seconds.

ADD YOUR OWN FORM

Set up once.
Reuse with new documents.

Add a blank fillable PDF. Official instructions help, and a note is optional. You don’t map any fields. Fyllyo Cloud reads the form and works out how to fill it, then tests it on test clients with the same local AI your Mac runs and fixes what it misses. Your documents stay on your Mac when you fill it.

Fill locally, every timeYour documents stay on your Mac

You don’t need an API key. You can use your own OpenAI or Anthropic key if you prefer. Keep personal details out of the blank form and instructions.
