I'm not an expert on web2py, but I think this isn't something you will find included in web2py, as there is many things that would need to be adjusted to each specific case. I think you will have to write some custom javascript to detect the moment when the input field has changes, and then send an http POST to store the new value. Notice this could fire a lot of http POSTs to your application, so maybe it is better to send the POST when the input loses focus (that is the onblur method <https://www.w3schools.com/jsref/event_onblur.asp>).
Another used technique is to set a timeout in javascript <https://www.w3schools.com/jsref/met_win_settimeout.asp> (let's say, 5 seconds) to send an http POST with the values of all the fields. Then, each time an input value changes, reset the timeout. That is a simple autosave mechanism.
