Introducing AI Features in Fax.Plus

Who can use this feature?

Available on Enterprise plan.

Accessible to Admins & Owners on Web App.

Fax.Plus now includes AI-powered tools to help you quickly read, extract, and reuse information from your faxes.

What are Fax.Plus AI features?

Fax.Plus AI analyzes your fax documents and helps you:

  • Extract key information without manual typing
  • Convert scanned documents into readable text
  • Quickly access important data alongside your fax

These features are designed to improve productivity and reduce manual work — especially when dealing with forms or structured documents.

Accessing Alohi AI Settings

  1. Log in to your Fax.Plus account as an administrator.
  2. Go to Settings > Faxing.
  3. Scroll down to the Alohi AI section.

AI for Fax.Plus

This is the master toggle for all Alohi AI features. When enabled, it activates AI capabilities for all users in your organization.

To enable it, switch the AI for Fax.Plus toggle to on. The toggle will appear blue when active.

Note: AI features will not be available to any users until this toggle is turned on.

Where to find AI features

AI features are available directly inside the fax viewer:

  1. Open a fax (Inbox, Sent, or Trash)
  2. Click on the “Alohi AI” panel on the left
  3. Choose the feature you want to run

For Enterprise users, the feature is available immediately — no setup required

AI Data Extraction

AI Data Extraction creates a structured view of the information in your fax.

What it does

  • Extracts key fields (e.g. names, dates, contact details)
  • Displays them in a structured format next to your fax
  • Allows you to copy values directly
  • Lets you edit values manually if needed
  • Supports custom fields to extract specific information (up to 20 custom fields)
  • Allows download as a JSON file

How it works

  • The AI analyzes your fax and builds a structured object (fields and values)
  • Results are saved automatically
  • When you reopen the fax, results are already available (no need to run again)

Editing extracted data

  • You can edit extracted values if something is incorrect
  • Edits are saved and shared across users who received the same fax
  • ⚠️ Editing does not change the original fax document

Important

  • Extracted data is mainly used for:
    • Copy/paste
    • Review alongside the fax
    • Export (JSON)
  • Direct integration (e.g. EHR, CRM) — coming soon
  • The structure of extracted data may vary unless you define custom fields

Tip: Use custom fields if you need consistent outputs (e.g. always extract “Patient Name”)

AI Text Transcript

AI Text Transcript converts your fax into a full text version.

What it does

  • Generates a complete, paste-able version of your fax
  • Works with printed and some handwritten content
  • Preserves structure as much as possible

How it works

  • Click “Text Transcript” in the AI panel
  • The system processes the document (may take ~1–2 minutes depending on size)
  • The result is saved and available every time you reopen the fax

Automatic Processing (Optional)

You can enable automatic AI processing for incoming faxes.

When enabled:

  • Data extraction runs automatically on new faxes
  • Results may already be available when you open them

Configuring Auto Data Extraction

  1. Click the Auto Data Extraction dropdown and select one of the following options:
    • Extract manually only – Extraction runs only when triggered manually by a user.
    • Auto extract all received faxes – Extraction runs automatically on all incoming faxes.
    • Auto extract all sent faxes – Extraction runs automatically on all outgoing faxes.
    • Auto extract all faxes – Extraction runs automatically on both sent and received faxes.
  2. To manage the fields used for extraction, click Manage Fields. Here you can view existing custom fields, add new ones, or edit and delete existing fields using the three-dot menu next to each field.

AI Credits

AI features use a credit-based system.

How credits work
