Yes, the Certainty app can be used on any iOS (Apple) or Android smartphone, tablet or device.

With Certainty, you can submit checklist data using any browser, the Certainty app, Excel export – import, or by using printed, paper-based checklists completed by hand. Paper-based checklists can be sent into the system using the scan-to-email feature of any standard scanner and are automatically digitized with our optical character recognition (OCR) tool.

Printable checklists are all based on an OCR template configured to work with your instance of Certainty. A checklist template defines the layout of a printable checklist (e.g. size of the paper you want to use and the number of possible columns and rows on the checklist). You can create an unlimited number of printable checklists from a single OCR template.

The option to have printable checklists can be included in your project for a one-time fee of $2,500 which includes the configuration of one (1) checklist template.

Additional templates are $1,200 each.
