A tool like Koto would have been so useful when I was at @DeptVetAffairs ... so many seemingly-complex processes like applying for VA healthcare or unemployment are really record management system problems when you break them down.
1/ For the last couple of years my friend @rongoro and I have been building a new kind of product to help small teams and organizations collect and manage records efficiently. Today we’re finally launching Koto. 🧵
We’re hoping to work with more teams who might find a tool like this helpful. If you feel like your technology is falling short we’d love to speak with you. Check it out at https://t.co/pnBcbNZYYB
After working with several organizations trying to serve those in need it became clear that the software they were using could be much better. They try to use spreadsheets and CRMs to manage their cases but these aren’t the right tools for the job.
Today we’re announcing the launch of Koto! It’s a new kind of lightweight and easy to use record management system built for small mission-driven teams and organizations. Check it out and let us know what you think! https://t.co/Wr4Mrllvzm
Instead of spreadsheet rows or custom objects in a Sales CRM, Koto makes it easy to make custom forms and save the data into records. This new set of building blocks makes it easier to build case management systems tailored to different operations.
Agreed. I was there too. Viv isn’t “scared” of difficult work. She’s done a lot of it. It’s an inaccurate and lazy characterization that undermines peers in this space who have to make tough decisions about where they work.
You need to issue a correction. Viv didn’t turn down the CIO of Puerto Rico gig bc she was *scared.* Viv isn’t scared of anything. I was on the phone with her every day during these negotiations. She only asked for a little time off first after 6 grueling years at the White House
