If it has a deadline and a submission portal, Formwork handles it.

The process

Three steps. Zero friction.

01

Forward the request

You receive a compliance pack, questionnaire, or portal invite. You forward it to Formwork. That's the entire onboarding.

02

Formwork does the work

AI reads the request, finds your documents, answers every question, uploads certificates, checks expiry dates, and chases missing evidence.

03

You get approved

Formwork returns a completed evidence log. Submitted. Correct. Chased. Approved. You move on to the next job.

The outcome

The paperwork that used to block revenue for a week now blocks it for zero days.

"We've been chasing our supplier onboarding pack for three weeks. It's blocking a £200k contract."

That conversation stops with Formwork.

Before Formwork
6-8 hours per pack
  • Staff with no capacity to do it
  • Missing documents, expired certificates
  • Portal rejections, resubmissions
  • Revenue blocked until approved
After Formwork
Zero hours. You forward it.
  • AI reads, finds, answers, submits
  • Evidence log returned, complete
  • Chases missing items automatically
  • Contract unlocked, work started

The insight

Businesses do not want more software to manage paperwork.
They want the paperwork gone.

Every service business knows this: you can do the real work. You have the engineers, the qualifications, the track record. But the admin stalls you — sometimes for weeks — and the contract goes to someone who got their compliance pack in first.

Formwork exists so that never happens again. We are the execution layer for business administration. Every company eventually has a Formwork inbox — paperwork@[company].com — and anything that lands there gets done.

The backlog stops here.

Formwork handles the boring work underneath your business growth so you can focus on what you actually built.

The long game

Eventually, every company has a Formwork inbox: paperwork@company.com. Any admin request lands there. Formwork reads it, finds the evidence, completes it, gets human approval where needed, submits it, and tracks the result. The company moves on.
