Lessons learned are written once and never revisited
FMEAs live in spreadsheets, disconnected from real work
Failure reports are filed and forgotten
Similar projects keep repeating the same mistakes
KF is built to fix exactly this.
Pages are items — documents, objects, events, or actions — written in Markdown with math, images, and file attachments. Organized into hierarchies, cross-linked, and fully searchable.
Record events (failures, defects, issues) on any item and link causes to effects. Generate FMEA reports and fault tree diagrams. Supports DRBFM and DRBTR methodologies.
Assign severity and occurrence to events; KF computes risk and shows it on a configurable color matrix. Supports AIAG/VDA Action Priority, ISO 26262 ASIL, and custom scales.
Any item can be of type another. Instances automatically inherit the type's failures, actions, and outcomes. When project P2 is a type of P1, it starts with everything P1 learned.
KF auto-generates checklists from an item's type — including past failures and their corrective actions. Each entry is tracked as missing, pending, done, or not applicable.
Actions can have duration and precedence and be visualized as a Gantt chart. Schedules are effort-based (not calendar-locked), making them reusable across similar projects. Exports to MS Project XML.
