From forms to
continuous field intelligence.
CtxStream is a server-based system built on our patent-pending Conveyor Architecture. Instead of forms, field data flows as small, structured atomic units. Each is captured instantaneously and synced bidirectionally between devices and your cloud or on-premise server.
A cloud-based version of CtxLens, CtxStream, built on the Conveyor Architecture is currently under development and will be available in the coming months. We will be offering custom implementations of this version to meet specific customer requirements. Get in touch to discuss your needs.
Form-Based Collection
- ✕Completed after the fact, in batches, from memory
- ✕Fields left blank. Handwriting illegible. Context lost.
- ✕The completed form is a document, not a data asset
- ✕Data is trapped — not queryable, not actionable
- ✕Photos float loosely in attachments, disconnected from observations
Atomic Data Units
- ✓Captured in the moment, by the person who has the information, when they have it
- ✓Structured inputs: multi-value fields, clickable answer sets, pass/fail, numeric entries
- ✓Each unit completable in seconds without breaking the rhythm of the work
- ✓Immediately queryable, reportable, and actionable
- ✓Every photo permanently bound to its observation with full relational context
“The form is not improved. It is replaced. Every data requirement previously handled by a form is now handled by a structured, timestamped, immediately transmitted atomic unit.”
Conveyor Architecture
Patent PendingThe Conveyor Architecture is a server-based architecture that enables continuous, bidirectional flow of structured, relational data, as independent atomic units, between CtxLens devices and a central cloud or on-premise server.
Outgoing — Field to Cloud / Server
Atomic data units — observations, photos, GPS coordinates, tags, timestamps, and structured inputs — flow continuously from field devices to the cloud or on-premise server. When connectivity is unavailable, units are staged on-device and transmitted automatically the moment a connection is detected. The original timestamp of capture is always preserved.
Incoming — Cloud / Server to Field
Instructions, assignments, coordination messages, and data updates flow from the server back to individual devices. Field workers receive what they need in context, when they need it — without phone calls, emails, or meetings. The same offline-first principle applies: messages are delivered the moment the device reconnects.
Flexible Deployment
The Conveyor Architecture can be deployed to the cloud or to a customer-owned on-premise server. Your data, your control, your compliance requirements met.
Real-Time Awareness
Field observations are visible the moment they are created. A safety concern logged at 10:14 AM is available to management at 10:14 AM — not at the end-of-day report.
Automated Reporting
Reports generate themselves from the live data stream. More complete, more consistent, and more timely than anything assembled manually.
Living Compliance Trail
Every observation carries a timestamp, GPS coordinate, author attribution, structured tags, and associated photographs — linked relationally and permanently. The audit trail builds itself.
Structured Data, Not Documents
Every unit of field data is immediately queryable, filterable, and actionable. No more extracting information from PDFs or spreadsheets.
