Pin FillAhead from the browser's Extensions menu so it stays easy to reach.
Open FillAhead and choose Create profile.
Give the profile a clear name such as Work, Personal, or Job applications.
Add the details you type often. Leave anything you do not want FillAhead to use blank.
Choose Save Profile.
Three profiles are included free. You can edit or remove them whenever you need to.
First fill
Open the form first.
Open a regular website with the form visible.
Open FillAhead from the toolbar.
Choose the profile meant for this page.
Select Fill Page.
Review the changed fields before you submit.
Need to reverse the fill?
Open FillAhead again and choose Undo. It restores the values from the most recent FillAhead fill.
Shortcuts
Open FillAhead whichever way is quickest for you.
Toolbar
Pick any saved profile and choose Fill Page.
Keyboard
Press Ctrl+Shift+F to fill with the default profile. You can change the shortcut in Settings.
Side panel
Keep FillAhead beside a longer form while you work through it.
Right-click
Use FillAhead commands without leaving the page.
Optional
Show the FillAhead button only where you want it.
Right-click a regular webpage and choose Show FillAhead button on this page. Chrome asks for access to that site so the button can remain available there.
To remove it, right-click the page and choose Remove FillAhead button from this page. The toolbar action does not request access to every website during installation. Auto-fill uses your default profile only on sites you grant access to.
Save from a form
Keep one filled field without opening the profile editor.
Enter the value on the page.
Right-click that field and open FillAhead.
Choose Save this field to a profile.
Check the field name and value in the preview, then choose the profile that should remember it.
FillAhead does not offer this action for passwords, payment details, verification codes, searches, blank fields, or unsupported controls.
Uploads
Match a file to the wording on the form.
Edit the profile and open File uploads.
Add a resume, cover letter, CSV, spreadsheet, or other supported file.
Enter a short target match such as resume, cover letter, or csv upload.
Save the profile and run Fill Page with the upload control visible.
Check the attached filename before submitting.
Custom fields
Save an answer that is not in the main profile.
Use a custom field for details you enter often but do not see in the standard profile, such as department, team size, CRM owner, or preferred contact method.
Edit a profile and open More fields.
Under Custom fields, choose Add field.
Give it a clear name that resembles the wording used on forms.
Enter the answer, save the profile, and review the next fill.
If one site uses unusual wording, keep the custom field and add a Smart Rule for that label.
If a field misses
If a form loads late, run FillAhead again.
Open hidden tabs, accordions, or the next step before filling.
Open a searchable dropdown once, then run FillAhead again.
Use a Smart Rule when a site gives a familiar field an unusual label.
Use the support form for a repeatable miss. The page URL and field label are usually enough.
One label still needs help?
The Smart Rules guide shows the shortest way to teach FillAhead that label.
