A system for autofilling forms, comprising:

• at least one processor;
• and
• a memory storage device including instructions that, when executed by the processor, cause the at least one processor to perform a method, the method comprising:
• identifying an element of a first instance of an electronic form;
• determining a first value for the identified element of the first instance of the electronic form;
• automatically filling the identified element of the first instance of the electronic form with the determined first value using an autofill application;
• receiving first user input on the determined first value to produce a first corrected value for the identified element;
• determining whether the first corrected value for the element is identifiable;
• determining, when the first corrected value is identifiable, that the identified element was misidentified;
• causing characteristics of the electronic form and a first data type of the first corrected value to be stored as a first training example in a training database;
• identifying the element of a second instance of the electronic form;
• determining a second value for the identified element of the second instance of the electronic form;
• automatically filling the identified element of the second instance of the electronic form with the determined second value using the autofill application;
• detecting that the second user is experiencing an issue with the second determined second value;
• presenting, in response to detecting the issue, a user interface to correct the issue;
• receiving, through the user interface, second user input on the determined second value to produce a second corrected value for the identified element, wherein the second user input explicitly identifies a second data type;
• causing characteristics of the electronic form and the second data type of the second corrected value to be stored as a second training example in the training database;
• and
• training the autofill application using the first training example and the second training example, wherein the second training example is weighted differently from the first training example.
