One group per site
The conversation belongs to the site: those who work on it see it, others don't. You send a site photo or a map extract, and read receipts show who has seen what.
Why not WhatsApp
Sorted by site
The conversation lives with the photos, plans and documents of the same site.
Kept by the company
When someone leaves, the site's history stays.
Hosted in Switzerland
Messages and photos stay in the app, hosted in Zurich and Geneva.
Photos findable
A photo sent remains a site photo: located, described, found in three words.
On the phone and at the office
The chat is in the site app and in the web version: notifications tell you when a message arrives.
A day on site
7:10 am: the team leader sends a photo of an unrecorded pipe found in the trench. At the office, the site manager sees it — the read receipt shows it — and replies with a map extract. The photo itself stays filed under the site: a year from now, “pipe trench” will find it.
Anyone who has joined the site — including the engineering firm or site supervision, with their code — follows the same conversation, without swapping phone numbers.
