Simple from day one

No technical knowledge required to collect data. Your IT team sets it up once — then anyone on your team can build and run surveys.

1
📋

Build your survey

Use the drag-and-drop form builder to create surveys with text, photos, GPS, checkboxes, and more. No coding required.

2
📱

Collect data in the field

Field teams use the mobile app on their phones. Works in areas with no internet — data is saved on the device and syncs automatically when back online.

3
🔒

Your data stays with you

Every submission goes directly to your server — not ours, not a third-party cloud. Your organization has full control of all data, always.

Already using another data collection tool? Questbee works the same way — same idea, same workflow. The key difference: most tools store your data on their servers. Questbee installs on yours, so your government agency, NGO, or foundation retains complete ownership.

Everything your team needs in the field

Designed for organizations that work in remote areas, handle sensitive data, or simply prefer not to depend on outside cloud services.

🔒

Your data never leaves your servers

Questbee installs on your own infrastructure — a government server, a private cloud, or an on-premise machine. No data is sent to us or any third party. Full compliance with local data regulations.

📱

Works without internet

Field teams collect data even in areas with no connection. Data is saved on their phone and automatically uploads to your server as soon as they are back online.

🎨

Branded as your own app

Put your organization's name, logo, and colors on the mobile app. Field workers and respondents see your brand — not Questbee's.

🤖

Build forms with AI assistance

Connect your AI assistant (Claude, GPT, or similar) to Questbee and describe your survey in plain language — the AI builds the form for you. Available on paid plans.

Ready in under an hour

Your IT team can have Questbee running on your server in under an hour — no specialized knowledge required. One command starts everything.

📊

Capture anything in the field

GPS location, photos, barcode scanning, digital signatures, audio, and smart conditional questions — all saved offline on the device.

Support the project

Keep Questbee free and actively maintained

Questbee is built and maintained as a side project. It's free and open source — but hosting, development tools, and time all have a real cost.

If Questbee saves your organization time or money, consider sponsoring the project. Every contribution helps keep it maintained, documented, and improving.

All contributions go directly to the developer. No VC, no company behind this.
