Frequently asked questions
How much does TrueContext cost?
The entry Digital tier starts at $400 per month for the entire team, billed annually, and covers paper-to-digital workflows, dispatching, automated reporting and live phone, chat and email support. Intelligent and Elite are custom-quoted and add enterprise connectors, SSO, work history and AI features. Pricing is explicitly not a flat per-user rate, so contractors do not simply multiply a seat cost. The Salesforce Connector is an optional add-on on the upper tiers.
How long does implementation take and who does it?
TrueContext describes standard deployments as completing within weeks, and says its low-code builder lets operations teams create or update workflows in minutes without IT dependency. Implementation Services are included for the Intelligent and Elite tiers and available as an optional add-on for Digital. The onboarding path includes a four-step mobile app training for technicians, data migration, integration work and access to documentation, community and university resources.
Which security and compliance certifications does TrueContext claim?
Its trust centre display shows SOC 2 Type II, HIPAA and Title 21 CFR Part 11 badges, with reports available on request under NDA. The same page states annual third-party audits and penetration testing, a disaster recovery plan, a subprocessors list, cyber insurance, DPA availability, customer data deletion on request and SSO-based employee access management. ISO 27001 and FedRAMP are not claimed.
Does TrueContext work offline?
Yes. The vendor states that every feature works without a connection, not just a subset, covering technicians on oil rigs, in secure facilities, in hospital imaging rooms and at remote sites with no signal. Data syncs automatically when connectivity returns, which is central to its fit for inspection, audit and maintenance work in hard-to-reach locations.
What integrations ship with TrueContext?
All tiers include connectors for SharePoint, Box, Dropbox, Google Cloud Storage, OneDrive, FTP/SFTP, webhooks, SMS notifications, a REST API and BI tools such as Power BI and Tableau. Intelligent and Elite add the ServiceNow Connector, AWS cloud storage and data source partitioning; the Salesforce Connector is an optional add-on. The REST API is the documented route to SAP, Oracle and in-house ERPs.
What AI capabilities does TrueContext offer, and which models power them?
The Elite tier lists AI Text Transformation and AI Form Builder, plus Work History that preloads past service records and asset trends, and On-Demand Connections that pull live data from enterprise systems and AI agents mid-job. Smart photo profiling, voice-to-form and video analysis are described as coming in 2026. The trust centre names Anthropic as its LLM subprocessor, used only when a customer opts in to AI features.
