Sutra · workforce ops for deskless teams

The thread that ties your field team together.

Sutra is a unified workforce operations platform for deskless, field-based teams. One mobile-first app, deployed from your own domain, replaces a tangle of consumer apps, spreadsheets and paper.

Installs as a PWA from your own domain — no App Store, no Google Play, no review queues.

The problem

Field teams run on duct tape.

Comms

WhatsApp groups for shift updates. Personal phone numbers shared in DMs. No record of who read the safety memo. When someone leaves, the institutional knowledge goes with them.

Time & attendance

Paper timesheets at the end of the week. Buddy-punching. Disputes about when someone actually showed up. Managers spending hours reconciling hours that should have been captured automatically.

Onboarding & compliance

Folders of scanned certificates that nobody can find when needed. New hires shadowing for a week because there's no structured onboarding path. Audits that take days to prepare.

What Sutra is

One platform. One install. Every operation visible.

The name sutra— Sanskrit for “thread” — captures the product's role: the connective fabric tying a distributed team's day-to-day operations together. Notices, shifts, clock-in records, internal chat, employee directory, training, and field forms all live in one place, on every field worker's phone, instantly accessible from any browser.

Sutra is built mobile-first and deploys directly from your own domain — not through the App Store or Google Play. That means zero-friction rollout, no gatekeepers between you and your team, and a fully branded experience under your URL.

Three pillars

Connect. Coordinate. Empower.

Connect

Replace your scattered WhatsApp groups with structured company comms. Broadcast announcements with read receipts that prove the message landed. Run 1:1 chats with workers, group conversations for shift teams, and segment-targeted broadcasts — all auditable, all secure.

Coordinate

Schedule shifts and let workers accept or decline directly on their phone. GPS-verified clock-in with geofencing so you know who's actually on site. Run ad-hoc events — exhibitions, pop-ups, temporary venues — through dynamic QR tags that you can rebind to any location without reprinting.

Empower

Bite-sized mobile training paths, compliance quizzes, and a centralised knowledge base mean new hires reach competence faster. A directory that's a digital phonebook — internal team, external clients, key suppliers — keeps every contact one tap away.

The Sutra advantage

Built for the way modern operations actually run.

The legacy way

  • Workers download an app from a public store
  • Per-seat pricing that punishes you for growing
  • Your data lives in someone else's CRM
  • Generic interface that has nothing to do with your brand
  • Mobile app needs an internet round-trip for everything
  • App-store approvals slow down every release

The Sutra way

  • One link from your own website — installs as a PWA in 5 seconds
  • Flat platform pricing
  • Your data, your database, your domain
  • Sutra is configured to look and feel like your product
  • Mobile-first PWA works in degraded connectivity
  • You push, your team gets it — no review queues

How a day on Sutra looks

From clock-in to clean weekly report.

06:00

The shift starts

A field engineer opens Sutra on her phone. The notice board shows yesterday's safety briefing; she taps Acknowledged. Her shift roster shows the day's three jobs.

08:15

On site

She arrives at the first customer site, opens Sutra, taps clock-in. GPS confirms she's inside the geofence. Her timesheet starts; the admin radar shows her as live.

11:00

A question for the supervisor

She opens chat, taps her supervisor's name, flags an unfamiliar piece of equipment. He responds within minutes — PAT test booked, red label applied.

Off site

She steps outside the geofence to drive to the next location. Sutra auto-flags her clock-out; the admin's exception feed registers it.

Common questions

Answers before the walkthrough.

Does my team need to install an app from the App Store?
No. Sutra is a PWA — one link from your own website, two taps to install to the home screen. No store approvals, no per-device limits.
Can it be branded as our own product?
Yes. Sutra is configured to your colours, your wordmark, and your domain. Your team sees your brand — not ours.
What about workers in low-signal areas?
The PWA is mobile-first and works in degraded connectivity. Captures queue locally and sync when signal returns.
How is the data secured?
UK-hosted, encrypted at rest, GDPR-compliant. Your data lives in your database — not a generic CRM shared with thousands of other tenants.
Can you migrate us from our current setup?
Yes — most teams arrive from WhatsApp + spreadsheets, and we have a standard 2-week onboarding to bring everyone over.
How does pricing work?
Flat platform pricing — no per-seat penalty for growing. Book a 15-minute walkthrough and we'll quote against your team size and shape.
