Data collection
Collect data from the field, analyse it the same day.
For field teams, surveys, audits and inspections. Build a form, capture entries wherever your people are, review them as they arrive, and see the results in a pivot without exporting a thing.

How it works
From form to findings
-
1
Build the form
Create forms from standard fields, or use a custom panel for anything unusual. Each form can be tied to locations, customers or leads.
- Text, choices, numbers, dates and photos
- Custom panels for special cases
- Forms tied to locations and partners

Your team fills in forms on the web, on their phone, or in conversation with your chat bot. Entries are stamped with the person and the location.

Review and link
Entries land in a register with statuses, so supervisors can review, query or accept them. Each entry links to the customer, lead or documents it concerns.

- Linked to customers, leads and files

Can people fill in forms on their phones?
Yes. Forms work on a phone's browser, and your chat bot can collect the same answers in conversation.
Can entries include photos?
Yes. Photos and files are attached to the entry and stored securely with it.
Who checks the entries?
Supervisors review entries in the register and accept or query them before they count in your results.
Can each region see only its own data?
Yes. Entries are scoped to a location, and permissions decide who sees what.
How do we analyse the results?
With pivots: choose rows, columns and values, and view them as a table, heatmap or chart.
