What we already do better.
Signed in for 30 days with no signal.
After one sign-in with signal, people stay signed in for 30 days with no signal at all. Training, forms and inspections keep working the whole time.
Saved the moment it's done.
Work saves on the phone the moment it's done, and sends itself when signal is back. Nobody has to press sync.
One app for training, inspections and forms.
Teams do their training, inspections and forms in one app, with one sign-in and one record for each person.
What their users say
“when you have no service, you have no drawings”
Why teams switch to PortalBase.
Training that proves itself.
Bring in your PDFs, slide decks and SCORM courses. Add a quiz or a sign-off, and certifications alert before they lapse.
It works where the signal doesn't.
A basement, a cab, a cooler or a back lot. Training, forms and inspections save on the phone and send on their own when it's back in range. Nobody has to press sync.
Everyone gets a way in.
Plenty of frontline people have no company email. They sign in with a code by text, an employee ID and PIN, or a QR badge on a shared tablet, and the record is still theirs.
OSHA logs from records you already keep.
The 300, 300A and 301 come from your incident reports as PDFs, with the CSV for OSHA's ITA. You review and file.
