Ready before doors open.

Five steps, start to sign-off.

  1. Step 1: Map your zones

    Break the space into the zones your team already thinks in — stage, lobby, kitchen, booth.

  2. Step 2: Helpers join by scanning a code

    No download, no login. A QR code on the wall or a printed sheet gets anyone on the crew into the right zone in seconds — or they type the code printed underneath if a camera won’t scan it.

  3. Step 3: Watch zones go green

    Coordinators see live progress across every zone from one screen.

  4. Step 4: Work offline, sync when you’re back

    The run keeps recording on the device even when the Wi-Fi drops, and syncs when it's back.

  5. Step 5: Sign off with a record

    When the last zone is ready, ReadyFactor generates a readiness report from the run itself — what was done, when, by whom — ready for a signature.

Joining

A helper joins in about ten seconds

Scan the code — or type the one printed underneath if the camera won’t cooperate — say what the team should call you, pick the zone you’re starting in. No app store, no password, no account — and the coordinator sees you arrive.

No app. No account. Or type the 8-character code.

They work their zone, one task at a time

Each helper sees what to do next, with the detail that matters — where the thing is, what “done” looks like. Checking a task off moves their zone’s progress immediately.

Coordinators watch every zone at once

One screen for the whole building: which zones are moving, which are stuck, who is working where, and how long is left before doors. Add a task to a zone mid-setup and it is on that zone’s phones before you close the dialog.

Help requests reach the board, not a group chat

A helper who hits a problem raises it from the task they are on, with a note and a photo. It lands on the coordinator’s board at once; someone takes ownership, fixes it, and writes down what was done.

Open requests hold readiness back, so nothing is signed off over a problem nobody closed.

Sign off with a record

Confirming a run closes it out: every zone, task, gear item and request checked, with a verdict the coordinator signs their name to.

Sign-off

The run becomes a report

Every check-off the run recorded, zone by zone — including anything still outstanding. It reports what actually happened, which is the only version worth signing.

Common questions

Answers before you ask.

Getting started

How do I get access?

ReadyFactor is invite-only during the pilot. Ask for an invite on this site; we read every request and reply with account instructions once it is approved.

What do I need to run my first setup?

A coordinator account, the names of your zones, and the tasks each zone needs done. A new run starts from a practical template you edit in a few minutes — and once you have run once, you can duplicate that run for next time.

Does it cost anything?

The pilot is free of charge. There is no pricing today; when there is, pilot teams will hear about it first and nothing changes without notice.

Helpers

Do helpers need to create an account?

No. A helper scans the run's QR code and works from their phone's browser — no app store, no password, no personal account. Coordinators are the only people who sign in.

What if the camera won't scan the code?

Every QR poster has an eight-character join code printed underneath it. Typing that code into the join page gets a helper to the same zone as scanning would.

What happens when the Wi-Fi drops?

The run keeps recording on the device and syncs when the connection returns. What a helper checks off is saved on their phone, so it survives closing the app — and on the rare occasion the phone cannot save it, the app says so rather than pretending.

Can a helper move to another zone?

Only if the coordinator allows it for that run. With zone switching on, a helper picks a new active zone themselves; with it off, the coordinator moves people from the board.

What if a helper hits a problem?

They raise a request from the task they are on, with a note and a photo if it helps. It appears on the coordinator’s board immediately, and the readiness report records how and when it was resolved.

During the run

Can I add a task once setup has started?

Yes. From the zone board, a coordinator adds a task to any active zone while setup is live. It appears on helpers’ lists right away, counts toward readiness if it is required, and the report marks it as added during setup.

How does a run become “ready”?

Four checks have to pass: every required task finished, every required piece of gear at its zone, every help request resolved, and every required zone signed off by its lead. Then a coordinator confirms the whole space. The report shows each check and its result.

The readiness report

What does the readiness report include?

A clear verdict, what is still open and who owns it, what changed from the plan, and the line-by-line record of what was done, when, and by whom, zone by zone — with a signature block for the venue or client.

Can I share the report with someone outside my team?

Yes. Create a private, view-only link. It stops working after 14 days, you can switch it off at any time, and it shows the reader nothing else. You can also print it or save it as a PDF.

What if we sign off and then something changes?

Reopening the space withdraws the sign-off and the report says so, naming who reopened it and when. Every time a run is signed off, a copy of the report is saved as it read at that moment, so the history is never overwritten.
