CommCare is a digital platform for frontline work, combining data collection, service delivery and case management. Its no-code builder uses drag-and-drop forms, skip logic, case configuration, multilingual forms, referrals and reporting. The Android mobile app works offline and synchronizes when a connection returns; workflows can also run as browser-based web apps, with two-way SMS available for both. Integration options include exports, OData feeds, data forwarding, third-party connectors and REST APIs, with links to Power BI, Tableau, DHIS2, Salesforce and Azure. The API can read and write cases, forms and users, and automate submissions and updates. CommCare is offered for Android, web, self-hosting and API use, and is open source under BSD for the web platform and Apache 2.0 for the Android app. A free edition for testing has one project space and five mobile workers. Standard costs 100.00 USD per month billed annually; Pro costs 500.00 USD per month billed annually; Advanced costs 1000.00 USD per month billed annually.
