New Features

  • Notifications
    The bell in the sidebar tells you when someone assigns a topic to you, adds you to a topic, or completes a topic you're involved in. Click a notification to open the topic. People who join your company show up there too. You aren't notified about your own changes.

  • Emails and Reminders for Topics Due Today
    When someone assigns a topic to you, you also get an email. When a topic you're assigned to is due today, kontekst reminds you in the morning, in the bell and by email. The link in the email opens the topic directly in the right company.

  • Defect and Task List With Photos
    The PDF report for topics is now called "Defect and task list". Hand it to subcontractors or take it along on a site walk. The first page shows how many topics are open, overdue, and done, and lists every topic with its number, assignee, due date, and status. After that comes each topic with its description, priority, and up to three photos. If a topic is placed on a plan, a plan excerpt shows where it is. Use "Group by" to group the list by location, assignee, or status.

  • A Cover Page for Every Report
    Every report now starts with a cover page: your company's name and logo, the project address, who created the report, and what it covers, for example the period, rooms, or tags. Under "For" you can add who the report is for, such as the client. The pages are numbered. In the photo report, each photo also shows who took it and which topics it is linked to.

  • Link Topics and Photos With @
    Type @ in a note and a list of topics and photos opens. Find topics by title and photos by description, room, tag, or date. If the topic doesn't exist yet, create it right from the list. A photo on a line of its own shows as a card with the image. Click a link to see a preview, and open the topic or photo from there.

  • Leave the Photo Dates Out of Reports
    In the photo report and the photo overview you can now hide the date under the photos, for example when the photos were uploaded after the visit. To do so, uncheck "Show the date under each photo". The report keeps its own date.

Improvements

  • Settings in One Window
    Your profile, language and appearance, AI assistants, and your company's name, logo, members, and invitations are now together in one window. Open it with "Profile and settings" in your profile menu or "Company settings" in your company menu. There, admins also find "Invite members".

  • Confirm Your Email Address
    New accounts confirm their email address through a link before they get started. If the link doesn't arrive, send it again. Anyone who creates an account with the button in an invitation needs no second email and is signed in right away. Nothing changes for existing accounts.

  • Storey as the Heading in Photo Reports
    If a photo is assigned to a storey but not to a room, such as the roof area, the photo report and the photo overview show the storey above the photo. Without a storey, they show the building.

  • Tidier Interface
    A topic's description field now has a border like other input fields, with its toolbar inside the field. "Show on plan" opens the plan in a window like every other one.
