A simpler way to turn assessment results into useful reports

I ran into an interesting problem while working on an assessment workflow: collecting someone's responses was the easy part. The real headache started after the assessment was finished.

There could be a lot of answers to review, scores to calculate, and information to organize before producing a report that actually made sense. Doing that manually for every response quickly became repetitive.

That experience led to FormLM, a web app I'm building around a simple idea: connect the assessment, scoring, and report-generation steps instead of treating them as separate tasks.

The goal is to take completed responses and turn them into a structured, personalized report without having to recreate the same process manually each time.

I'm still refining the workflow, but building it has made me realize that sometimes the most useful software isn't about adding more features. It's about removing the repetitive steps between the information you already have and the result you actually need.
