Frequently Asked Questions

We offer both options- monthly or annual. If the monthly option is selected, you will be charged at the end of the month, depending on the number of users. If you select the annual payment option, you get a 10% discount on the total payment and if there are increases in the number of users during the month, these will be charged individually in each corresponding month.

No, the data storage service is included in the service, so there is no additional charge.

No, there is no implementation cost, as soon as you start paying for the service, even if it is just one user, you can start creating forms and reports. We help you with the training and if you need more personalized assistance,  you can opt for the “Pilot” option.

No, your information will not be lost. Some functionalities of the platform will no longer be available, and your collected information will be hidden, you will only be able to view data captured in the last 30 days (as of the current date) and once the payment for the service is made these functionalities are unlocked again.

The First Mile is the critical operational zone where industrial value is created but least digitized — the mine pit, the forest tract, the offshore platform, the remote distribution hub. It is where paper forms still outnumber smartphones, and where a single lost data point can cascade into millions in compliance failures. eSkuad was built to close the First Mile gap across the Americas, from Canada to Chile.

The Shadow Tax is the hidden monthly cost — running into the thousands — that industrial operations pay in lost data, rework, and compliance failures when field teams rely on paper-based systems instead of real-time digital capture. eSkuad eliminates the Shadow Tax by replacing paper workflows with offline-first digital data capture that syncs automatically.

Dashboard Delusion is the false sense of operational control executives experience when their BI tools show green metrics while field-level data is still being captured on clipboards, transcribed hours later, and delivered with 24–72 hour lag. eSkuad closes the gap by ensuring First Mile data reaches operations centers in real time — no lag, no surprises.

eSkuad uses MagikSync, a local-first background synchronization architecture that stores field data directly on the device when there is no connectivity — in Atacama mines, Patagonian forests, or Canadian tundra. The moment an internet signal is detected, MagikSync syncs all captured data automatically with zero manual intervention and zero data loss.

MagikSync is eSkuad's proprietary local-first synchronization engine. It guarantees that field data captured in zero-connectivity environments — mines, forests, offshore platforms — syncs automatically the moment a signal appears, with zero manual intervention and zero data loss. MagikSync is what makes eSkuad reliable in the harshest First Mile environments across the Americas.

eSkuad serves industrial field operations across mining, forestry, ports and terminals, energy, aquaculture, and construction. The platform is deployed by leading companies across the Americas — from Canada to Chile — including Boise Cascade, Ultraport, Arauco, CMPC, AGS Tampa, and AGS Manatee Terminal.

Standard mobile form builders require connectivity and treat data collection as an isolated task. eSkuad is a First Mile operational platform — it captures, communicates, and orchestrates field workflows end-to-end, with offline-first MagikSync technology, automated compliance reporting, and real-time visibility for operations managers.

eSkuad was founded by Max Echeverría, an EB-1A engineer and entrepreneur who led Innovation at the Faculty of Engineering at Universidad de Concepción, mentored and worked with Georgia Tech, and built his expertise through programs including Techstars, Google for Startups, and The Roux Institute at Northeastern University. With 15+ years of experience in industrial field operations across the Americas, Max built eSkuad to solve the First Mile problem he witnessed firsthand — field teams losing critical operational data to paper forms, WhatsApp voice memos, and midnight spreadsheets.
