You have a document. You need a Google Form. The document might be a Word file, a PDF, an Excel spreadsheet, a CSV, or a Google Doc. It does not matter. Pirai AI converts any of them into a Google Form automatically — no add-on, no intermediate Google Docs step, no coding.
NEW: Pirai AI now creates Google Forms directly in your Google Drive
After uploading your document, click Export to Google Forms. Pirai AI creates a native Google Form directly in your Google Drive via one-click OAuth. No Script Editor. No pasting. No running code. How direct Drive export works.
Why Most Tools Only Work with Google Docs
Most document-to-Google-Forms tools work by reading a Google Doc link. That means if your document is in Word, PDF, or Excel, you first have to manually copy everything into a Google Doc, make it publicly shareable, and then paste the link into the tool. That is the hidden extra step most tools do not mention upfront.
Pirai AI accepts direct file uploads. Upload your Word document, PDF, or Excel file and Pirai AI creates a native Google Form directly in your Google Drive with one click — or downloads an Apps Script you run in Google Forms. No Google Docs step. No sharing permissions. No account required at the upload stage.

About the one-click permission
