Issue 45 of The Fulcrum Insider is live, and if you’re running field operations, you need this one. We’re talking about Audio FastFill, the new AI-powered voice input that’s turning field data collection on its head. No typing. No tapping. Just talk, and the data lands right where it belongs.
But that’s not the whole story. This issue dives deep into how smart tech is transforming fieldwork — from faster workflows to tighter data accuracy and fewer headaches.
Audio FastFill in action: See how AI-powered voice input transforms data collection by turning spoken observations into structured field data. No typing, tapping, or navigating through forms.
Voice vs. typing: Our latest comparison shows how Audio FastFill outpaces traditional data entry, reducing errors while speeding up inspections and reports.
Optimizing workflows for AI: Discover how field teams are configuring Fulcrum apps to make the most of Audio FastFill, accelerating inspections and improving data accuracy.
Why disconnected tools slow you down: Traditional field data collection relies on scattered apps and manual processes. This issue explains why a unified platform built for real-world fieldwork delivers better results.
What’s next for AI-driven fieldwork: Explore expert insights into how AI is shaping the future of engineering and consulting workflows, from smarter inspections to automated reporting.
Field data collection has always been about accuracy and efficiency. AI takes it further by eliminating the friction that slows teams down — repeated taps, misplaced entries, and tedious manual workflows. Issue 45 shows how field-first AI tools are solving these challenges today, not in some distant future.
Whether you’re already using AI-powered workflows or figuring out where to start, this issue offers practical strategies and real-world examples that can shape your next steps.
