Waivers & Intake Forms

Q: Will automation handle forms that arrive by email, paper, or text?

Automation works best with digital form submissions through a form platform. Paper forms can be scanned and processed, but email or text submissions may require manual routing to your form system first.

Q: Does automation work with our existing CRM and file storage?

Yes. Automation integrates with mainstream CRM platforms like HubSpot and Salesforce, and document storage tools like Google Drive, Dropbox, and OneDrive.

Q: What if a form contains information that does not fit standard fields?

Automation extracts and maps standard fields automatically. Non-standard or complex information can be flagged for manual review, ensuring nothing is lost while still eliminating routine data entry.

Q: How does automation handle forms with special requirements or exceptions?

Automation processes standard forms end-to-end. Forms with unusual requirements or missing critical information are flagged and routed to your team for review, so nothing falls through the cracks.

Replace paper shuffling and chased signatures with a self-serve digital intake flow that lands every record in the right place.

How The Automation Works

The full workflow, from trigger to completion.

1. New Form Submission Receivedtrigger

A client submits a waiver or intake form via email,, or a web link. The automation is triggered immediately.

2. Validate Form Completeness

The automation reviews the form data to check that all required fields are filled, signatures are present, and dates are valid. If any field is missing, the automation flags it.

3. Auto-Send Reminder for Missing Fields

If the form is incomplete, a notification is sent to the client (or an email reminder is queued) requesting the missing information. The client can resubmit directly.

4. Extract and Map Form Data

Once the form is complete, the automation extracts all key fields (name, contact, health info, emergency contact) and maps them to the correct CRM fields.

5. Create or Update Client Record

The extracted data is automatically written to the client record, eliminating manual re-entry.

6. Store Form

The completed form is automatically saved in a consistent folder structure with a standardised naming convention.

7. Send Confirmation to Client

A confirmation email is automatically sent to the client confirming receipt of the form and clearing them to proceed with their booking or experience.
