Forager

Field data collection that works without a signal.

THE CHALLENGE

Field teams were filling in paper forms and manually entering data when they returned to the office. Hours of delay, transcription errors, and no way to track what was collected where.

THE SOLUTION

We built Forager โ€” a mobile-first app with offline-first architecture. Forms are built in the admin dashboard and pushed to devices. Submissions are queued locally and sync to the server the moment connectivity returns.
