Field notes

Each job is represented as a .qid file; the on-page demo lets a visitor open a step, enter a reading, accept or reject it, and ask the assistant what to do next. Sample workflows include pump installation, table assembly, and ultrasonic weld inspection, with measured tolerances and review status. The page says the desktop app runs offline on Windows and macOS and keeps data on the user's computer; its claimed tamper-evident activity chain is presented, but the verification method is not detailed here.
