◆ Your logbook, automatically filled. Every flight generates data — ACARS logs, FMC printouts, OOOI reports, Electronic Flight Bag screenshots. EFB Companion is the pipeline between that data and your logbook. Screenshot a document, and your flight entry is ready to review and export. No manual typing, no copying and pasting, no time wasted at your desk or logging into airline systems just to retrieve the same data in a structured format. ◆ How it works Import a screenshot or photo of any flight document. EFB Companion recognises the document type, extracts your flight data using on-device OCR, and organises everything into a clean, reviewable entry — flight number, aircraft registration, route, departure and arrival times, crew names, and more. All processing happens on your device. NO accounts, NO login, NO sharing of data with third parties. ◆ Works with any consistent document format If your document looks the same from flight to flight, EFB Companion can read it. The built-in template editor lets you teach the app exactly where your data lives on the page — mark a few anchor points, select the field regions containing the data, and EFB Companion will extract your data reliably every time. Whether it's a company-specific ACARS format, a bespoke OFP layout, or an FMC printout unique to your fleet, if it's consistent, it works. ◆ Key features • Automatic document recognition and field extraction via Vision OCR • Support for flight number, registration, aircraft type, route, OOOI times, and up to 4 crew members • Fully customisable document templates — build once, extract forever • Review and correct extracted data before export • Duplicate detection based on flight data fingerprints • Export to CSV for any spreadsheet or records system • One-tap export to LogTen Pilot Logbook • Scans grouped by month for easy browsing • Fully on-device — your data never leaves your device ◆ Who it's for EFB Companion is designed for line pilots and flight operations staff who regularly receive flight information as printed or digital document screenshots and need to maintain accurate, structured records without the overhead of manual data entry. Your data is already there. EFB Companion just moves it to where it needs to go. ◆ No Subscriptions! EFB Companion does not require costly subscriptions. Import and scan up to 100 images for free.
