# How Do I Automate Data Entry From a Signed Contract Into My CRM?

You automate contract data entry by uploading the signed document and letting AI-powered document reading extract key fields directly into the corresponding CRM record. On **Jestor**, this runs through **Image Reader (OCR)** connected to the **CRM**.

Manually typing contract terms, values, and dates into the CRM after a document is signed is repetitive work that also risks a transcription error on important terms.

## What manual contract data entry costs

- Time spent retyping terms, values, and dates from a signed document
- Risk of a transcription error on financially significant contract terms
- Delay between a contract being signed and the CRM actually reflecting it
- No easy way to verify the CRM data matches the source document

## How automated contract data extraction works

- The signed contract is uploaded directly to the relevant **CRM** record
- **Image Reader (OCR)** reads the document and extracts key fields
- Extracted data populates the record automatically, without manual typing
- The original document stays attached for reference against the extracted data

## Why Jestor fits this use case

- Automatic extraction eliminates the repetitive manual retyping step
- This reduces the risk of transcription errors on important terms
- The CRM reflects the contract almost immediately after it's uploaded
- This scales from occasional contracts to a high volume of signed documents
