Agility depiction

Agile

Modify your project design and data collection methodology in the field, great for projects where things may change unexpectedly or where data collection needs to be adaptable.
No need to create forms on desktop and sync with mobile devices - Asset descriptors, sample types can all be added or edited in the field and changes are instantly visible to team members.
Real-time data depiction

Real-time

Asset locations & data streamed in real-time = easy collaboration and monitoring.
Users can see when assets are deployed in the field and when sample data is collected. It's easy for team leaders to manage workflows and for team members to stay on top of their tasks.
Easy use depiction

Easy

With an intuitive, self-explanatory interface and functionality, you don't need a degree to use it (but it might help you get one!)
Feature packed mobile field data collection depiction

Our story
Locus was designed and built by end users like you! We were working on field research projects and had two choices: Use pen and paper to record data, or download apps that were difficult to use, not very customisable, and expensive!
We wanted an app that could be used to record and share field data that was affordable, simple to use but also powerful and flexible.

Why choose Locus?

Green checkbox relating to agile field app
The most agile field app on the market
Create a whole project, invite team members, assign permissions and define all asset and sampling parameters all on your mobile device. Many other apps require you to create pre-built forms and sync updates between desktop and mobile devices. We focus on what's important, getting you out there to do your work! Change anything you want on the fly. All updates are instantly visible to the whole team.
Green checkbox relating to easy to use field app
Super easy to use
Other apps require days of training to use, with Locus you'll be up and running in minutes. Like our website, our app is simple to understand and simple to use.
Green checkbox relating to better and cheaper field app
Better and cheaper
Our pricing is simple and clear. We have an affordable tier for everyone including a free tier that doesn't require a convoluted permissions process. Locus is hands down the cheapest mobile data collection tool of its kind out there! In fact most research students can do their whole project for free.
Data security
Concerned about privacy, backups and data loss?
Green gear to represent security, privacy, backups and data loss
Our security is world-class.
We utilise the highest forms of encryption throughout the stack to stop man-in-the-middle attacks dead in their tracks. There are multiple security mechanisms in place both on the client and on the backend for every operation in the app. This is the weakest link with most other apps, but we've got you more than covered.

I like the flexibility in editing the categories, so no need to do everything all over again like in ODK. Also the integration of the map alongside the data collection process is crucial in actual field scenarios.

This has made our lives so much easier. Locus is so simple to use, I was able to get our whole field team on the new project, using the app and collecting samples in under an hour standing in the field!
