Does this sound familiar?

You didn't sign up to do data entry. You signed up to help people — but the paperwork keeps getting in the way.

Manual intake takes over your day

New client? Pull out the clipboard. Returning client? Dig through files for their record. Every visit starts with the same questions.

Minutes per client add up fast — across dozens a day, your team loses hours to paperwork instead of helping people.

Reporting takes too long

Funder report due tomorrow? Time to compile spreadsheets, cross-reference records, and verify the numbers — what should be quick drags into an afternoon.

Staff stay late, reports go out with errors, and funders start questioning your data. One bad report puts your funding at risk.

Training volunteers is slow

Onboarding a new volunteer means walking them through forms, spreadsheets, and processes. It takes time, and consistency is hard.

New volunteers spend their first week learning your system instead of helping clients — and service gets inconsistent.

Built for the work, not the paperwork

No per-seat fees, no sales calls, no week-long setup — just a tool your whole team can use from day one.

Learn it in minutes

A volunteer can pick up the basics in 5–10 minutes, so new helpers start helping right away.

One flat price

$30/month per location with unlimited users and every feature included — no matter how big your team grows.

Your data stays yours

You own your records, and we never sell your data.

How Boswell works

Three steps your whole team can learn in minutes.

1

Register or look up

Add a new client with a simple form, or pull up a returning one in seconds — no clipboard, no digging through files. If a new client may already be in Boswell, you see the likely match first.

Boswell's Add Client form: first and last name, optional phone and email, and an optional address
2

Record services

Set a client’s approved programs at intake. At every visit, the desk picks the program, the approved values fill in, and the desk checks them and keeps the line moving.

Boswell's New Distribution form: the client's approved Food Pantry values filled in, every household member checked as a recipient, and an option to save the values for next time
3

Report to funders

Turn an afternoon of spreadsheet work into a single export-ready report — by demographic, service, and date.

Boswell's Impact Dashboard: people and households served, program activity, and demographics by age, service area, race, ethnicity, and gender
