70 votes. #24 out of 1,176 products on Product Hunt until now.
For some products, that might just be another launch metric.
For me, it feels a little different.
Formalini has been a very personal project. Not only because I believe in it but also that it helps me and my family and can help you too. Of course, the huge experience as an coder, architect, CEO, CTO and all in between has helped me build this.
There isn’t a large engineering team behind it.
For 9 months, I’ve been building it largely on my own — architecture, backend, frontend, infrastructure, APIs, security, document processing, workflows, website, integrations, testing, deployments… and then switching hats and trying to figure out pricing, marketing, sales and how to actually get people to discover it.
Some days I’m the CEO.
Most days I’m still the programmer.
And occasionally I remember I’m supposed to do marketing too. 😂
So seeing 70 people vote for Formalini and watching it reach #26 among 1,176 products genuinely meant something to me.
But this launch isn't the finish line.
It’s actually much closer to the beginning.
Formalini started with a relatively simple idea:
What if a document didn't end at “OCR”?
What if you could give the system a PDF, scan, photo, invoice, receipt, form or handwritten document and get back structured, validated data that your software can actually use?
Then connect that data to workflows, APIs, webhooks, SAP, ServiceNow, ERP, CRM or your own applications.
But now I’m working on the part I’m probably most excited about:
Formalini Blueprints.
Instead of giving businesses a generic document AI platform and saying:
"Here are the tools. Now figure out what to build."
Blueprints will show what Formalini can become for a specific business or profession.
A law firm shouldn't have to imagine how document AI could work for legal matters.
A hotel shouldn't have to design its own document workflow from scratch.
An accounting department shouldn't need to figure out how invoices should move from PDF → extraction → validation → approval → ERP.
A developer shouldn't need weeks to understand how to integrate all of this.
The Blueprint should already understand the problem.
Legal.
Accounting.
SAP.
ServiceNow.
Healthcare.
Tourism.
Insurance.
Real estate.
And many more.
The long-term idea is that Formalini isn't simply somewhere you upload a document.
It becomes the bridge between documents and the systems, workflows and people that need the information inside them.
And eventually, I want other developers and companies to be able to build on top of that ecosystem too.
But Product Hunt also showed me something important.
People can find something interesting enough to vote for it without necessarily trying it.
And that gap matters enormously to me right now.
So I have a question, particularly for anyone who saw Formalini but didn't try it:
What stopped you?
Was it unclear what Formalini actually does?
Did it look like another OCR product?
Could you not immediately see a use case for yourself or your company?
Was there too much to understand before getting started?
Or was it simply something you didn't need right now?
I'm not looking for compliments.
At this stage, one honest sentence explaining why you didn't use Formalini is probably more valuable to me than another upvote.
To the 70 people who already supported it: thank you.
You helped a product built largely by one person reach #26 out of 1,176 products.
Now I need to turn that momentum into something much bigger.
Back to building.

Would love to answer any questions especially as this product is both for B2B and regular people and I don't know about you but for me it made a big difference in my life. I'm using it personally to keep track of my costs with minimum effort, keep track of my insuraces, deadlines and many others. As for the business side, this is a literal monster.
