KoBoToolbox

KoBoToolbox (all one word) is a full-featured survey design and collection platform. It launched as a comprehensive platform for humanitarian data collection in 2014 with funding from USAID, UNOCHA (UN Office for Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs) and IRC (International Red Cross).

As of 2022-04-19, it had the following options: Researchers, aid workers, and "everyone else": Free. 10,000 Submissions Per Month, 5GB of Data Storage Per Month, and Unlimited Projects. Humanitarian Organizations: Unlimited Submissions, Unlimited Data Storage, Unlimited Projects.

KoBoToolbox experienced a rapid growth and adoption among the humanitarian community, making it the most widely used tool for primary data collection by humanitarian actors today.

Over the last years, KoBoToolbox has been developed and maintained by an international team of engineers, researchers, and other staff affiliated with the Harvard Humanitarian Initiative (HHI) and Brigham and Women’s Hospital due to the affiliations of its co-founders at Harvard. Funding for KoBoToolbox since 2013 has been received from a combination of UN organizations, international humanitarian NGOs, and private foundations. These funds have enabled the KoBoToolbox team to continuously develop features based on user feedback, provide free user support, establish a training platform, and to maintain the free KoBoToolbox servers for humanitarian, research, human rights, and related organizations.
