Does anyone else waste an hour retyping scans into templates?

I keep meeting people - HR teams, accountants, and realtors - who spend a big chunk of their day on the same thing: open a scan, read it field by field, and retype the same names, dates, and numbers into a Word template. One document can eat about an hour, and a single mistyped number can void the whole thing, so it's slow and stressful.

Before I build more around it, I want to sanity-check how common this actually is.

A few honest questions:

• How often do you (or your team) copy data from a scan/PDF into a document by hand?

• Roughly how long does one document take?

• What have you tried - copy-paste, OCR, templates, an LLM? What broke?

• Is the scary part the time, or the risk of one wrong value?

I'm not trying to pitch anything here - I'm genuinely trying to learn how widespread this is and where it hurts most. If it resonates, I'd love to hear your story.
