Beta of Open Source LogicPull Available
January 13, 2014
Here is an open-source solution for the search crowd: check out the beta version of LogicPull, available at GitHub, for some content magic. The tool lets one create advanced interviews for end users, then feeds their answers to document templates.
The description elaborates:
“LogicPull was initially developed to save time and money creating the many legal documents needed for a court proceeding. It has since expanded to handle the assembly of PDF, DocX, RTF and XML documents for any project. It is a cloud based automated document assembly service. We give you the tools to quickly create an advanced question and answer interview to be completed by an end user, which in turn creates an answer set to be combined with a template to produce documents.
*Multiple Document Formats Supported
*Create Complex Branching Logic
*Keep your Data and Documents in the Cloud
*Save Progress on Client Interviews
*Attach Custom Templates to Guided Interviews
*Preview your Work Before it Goes Live
*Send Processed Documents Automatically”
Naturally, the GitHub entry lists system and software requirements for running LogicPull, as well as a links to demos, an installation tutorial, and an article on building the solution logically. You can also look through the FAQs, known issues, envisioned improvements, and other key info. One point to note: in order to use the full version of LogicPull, one must register. However, at the time of this writing, the site is a victim of its success—so many folks have registered recently, that sign-up is currently disabled. Let us hope it will re-open soon.
