From photo to defect to note: Everything connected

Topics connect documentation with action: Photos and notes become tasks and defects – and vice versa. Navigate bidirectionally between what's documented and what needs to be done.

  • Create defects and tasks directly from photos with complete context automatically linked.
  • Custom views: Build your own Kanban boards or lists and choose which statuses to display.
  • Rich text descriptions with the integrated Lexical editor for structured documentation.

New Features

  • Topics for Task & Defect Management
    Create defects and tasks and link them with photos, notes, and comments. All data remains independently searchable and stays linked to all relevant topics. This way you can find the right photo for a defect without searching.

  • Views: Kanban Board & Lists
    Switch between Kanban board (for agile planning) and list view. Create custom views and choose which status should be visible. You can set up multiple views per project.

  • Rich Text Descriptions
    Topic descriptions can be refined in the integrated editor. Capture notes or document acceptance criteria. Links to your photos or notes are supported.

  • Topics in Mobile App
    Create defects directly on-site from photos in the kontekst Lens app. Status, priority, and assignments can be managed on mobile.
