Compare · Spreadsheets
The clipboard doesn't send reminders.
Manual logs versus automatic, owned, searchable records built from the chat the crew already uses.
The difference
Built around the handoff.
01
Manual logs cost you
Spreadsheets, paper and radio lose time and detail — the record gets re-keyed at the desk, after the day is done.
02
Captured from the chat
Convoe builds the log automatically from the conversation the crew is already having.
03
A searchable trail
Owners, dates and photos land in one searchable record instead of scattered files and folders.

The verdict
Spreadsheets, paper and radio are free, but they are manual and lossy — detail and time leak out every day. Convoe makes the record build itself from the chat the crew already uses.
