Ever been in a meeting, heard "where's that document?", and gone digging through email, notes, and folders? With Scrap2, everything about a piece of work lives together, right where you'll look for it. HOW IT WORKS Projects hold Categories, and Categories hold Events. An Event is one piece of work — a client request, a repair, a trip, a hire — with everything about it inside: • Notes, kept in order with who wrote them and when • Documents and scans, dropped right where they belong • Contacts and links • A follow-up date and the person it's assigned to • Emails created right from the Event YOUR DAY AT A GLANCE • Do It: your top-priority Events • Due: Events assigned to you that are due or past due • Recent: the open Events your team worked on last • Meetings: Events on a meeting agenda RUN BETTER MEETINGS Build an agenda from Events across projects. Take notes, open documents, and assign follow-ups without leaving the meeting. FOR TEAMS AND FOR INDIVIDUALS • See what everyone is working on, without status meetings • Invite your team — members join free under the account owner's subscription • Use it on iPhone, iPad, and Mac PRIVATE AND SECURE Your data is encrypted in transit, at rest, and in the app. Only you and the people on your team can see it.
