Unlocking the full potential of your workforce is one of the best ways to take on the dynamic work that is more common than ever today. You can give more power to your workforce - leveraging AI, connecting data and enabling trusted teams to handle more sensitive data and processes. This is what will ultimately remove the Gray Work that plagues so many of our processes and bridges gaps across teams.

Here’s what we’ve been hard at work on in product, so you can empower innovation through dynamic work:

Build, Protect, and Improve with Quickbase AI

Next Generation Smart Builder [Now in BETA]

Generative AI has become a part of many of our routines - asking a service like ChatGPT a question can bring us the answer we need, right when we need it. Quickbase’s Smart Builder capability, just got even smarter. Our next generation Smart Builder now enables all types of users to create an application in just minutes by answering a few basic questions about the business problem you’d like to solve. Generative AI interprets your responses to the prompts, and creates you a fully functional app, including tables, fields, dashboards, and reports to start using immediately.

This is a huge deal! Generative AI driving efficient, informed application building in Smart Builder will be incredibly valuable, especially for organizations looking to solve urgent business problems as quickly as possible. Harness the knowledge and creativity of your entire workforce and get new solutions into the hands of your teams quicker than ever.

Creating a new app in Quickbase

Data Analyzer [Now in BETA]

AI goes beyond generative tools - it allows for more efficient business operations and new insights from across your data. When your tools work for you and proactively make new suggestions, you can truly solve for dynamic work. Quickbase Data Analyzer identifies patterns in your data across applications to predict and identify opportunities to improve productivity. Your data contains a story. Data Analyzer extracts the crucial details from the surrounding noise, giving you data backed insights to act on.

Accomplish more on the move

FastField

More people than ever are working on the go, making it imperative to connect workers regardless of location. This is even more critical for companies looking to connect teams in the field with the back office. FastField, powered by Quickbase, is here to solve that problem.

Put simple mobile forms in the hands of your field workers, while the back office manages operations seamlessly. This fully-customizable solution allows for organizations needing to solve for safety challenges, site inspections, and more while removing the Gray Work from the process. Data can be entered offline, further enabling teams working in remote areas.

FastField and Quickbase are now integrated, so you can keep your projects on-time and under-budget. Data from a FastField form can be saved directly into Quickbase, while a FastField form can be easily mirrored based on the structure of a Quickbase app.

More information on Quickbase and FastField can be found here.

Work simply, but powerfully

Pipelines Designer

One of the best ways to eliminate Gray Work, the manual work that you take on when your tools and data don’t work together, is strong integrations. Quickbase Pipelines has been pulling together data from key sources across your organization to create that key single source of truth, and that experience is getting even smoother with enhancements to our Pipelines Designer.

Pipelines Designer offers a modern, intuitive experience for creating a pipeline in Quickbase. Users can now zoom in and out to see their entire workflow, drag and reorder steps, and more clearly see their display of conditions and loops. This will dramatically reduce the learning curve for those looking to create integrations across sources of data through Quickbase.

Securely and intuitively manage your most important data

Static IPs for Pipelines

For processes that involve more sensitive data, it’s critical to trust how that data is managed. Static IPs for Pipelines enables all outbound traffic through a list of specific IP addresses. Now, you can ensure visibility and control over the data flowing between your systems, and trust that it is managed safely and effectively.

Data Scanner

Managing a large dataset can take a lot of time and effort, especially when that data comes from multiple systems, applications, and users. Our AI-powered Data Scanner has now been expanded to include custom search. Data Scanner leverages machine learning to scan Quickbase for custom data you define, bringing back a list of results and confidence levels. With Data Scanner, you can then take action to proactively classify, protect or remove data based on your compliance needs.
