Electronic Data Capture (EDC) System: Leverage Flexibility And Speed With TrialKit
Neither traditional nor hybrid clinical trials can operate on rigid EDC systems.
They require flexible data collection systems that support protocol amendments without downtime and accept mobile data without hassle. As a cloud-native solution, TrialKit bends to accommodate mid-study changes. And as the first full-featured EDC platform available as a native mobile app, TrialKit flexes to meet the demands of traditional, hybrid/decentralized, and completely remote clinical trials.
Give your team the freedom to build, deploy, and manage their studies, their way—weeks faster than with rigid EDCs and for a fraction of the cost of the major players.
Clinical Trials Demand More From EDC Technology
Clinical research teams need EDC software that can accommodate complex protocols, support evolving study requirements, and give stakeholders timely access to reliable data.
TrialKit combines configurable electronic data capture with native mobile applications, integrated data management tools, and flexible study workflows. Teams can build, validate, deploy, and manage studies while maintaining control over how data is collected, reviewed, and analyzed.
With Floyd embedded in TrialKit, researchers can also use AI to assist with study configuration, test data generation, and analysis, extending the role of EDC across the clinical study lifecycle.
What is an EDC System?
An electronic data capture (EDC) system is software used to collect, manage, and store clinical research data electronically. By replacing paper-based case report forms with digital data collection, EDC systems support timely data entry, automated validation checks, query management, and ongoing study monitoring.
TrialKit extends these capabilities with a unified, cloud-based environment accessible through the web and native applications for iOS, Android, and macOS. Research teams can collect data at clinical sites, support remote participation, and incorporate information from other TrialKit modules and external systems.
With configurable study designs, mobile access, and embedded intelligence through Floyd, TrialKit supports traditional site-based, hybrid, and decentralized clinical trials.
Why Choose TrialKit for Your EDC Needs?
TrialKit gives sponsors, CROs, and research teams greater control over study configuration, data collection, and ongoing data management.

Make controlled changes to study configurations as protocols evolve. TrialKit supports study versioning, testing changes before deployment, and migrating participants or sites to updated versions while data collection continues.
Manage Data Review and Monitoring
Support configurable review workflows, field-level source data verification, electronic signatures, and query management. Role-based review levels, batch review options, and monitoring reports help study teams track data review progress and maintain oversight.
Reuse Forms and Study Configurations
Build on existing work with reusable form libraries, field definitions, and conditional actions. Import previously validated forms into new studies, adapt configurations to specific protocols, and track validation status when changes are made.
Capture Data Across Web and Mobile
Collect and review study data through the web or TrialKit’s native mobile applications. Support site-based and remote data collection with device-flexible workflows that accommodate traditional, hybrid, and decentralized research.
Manage Multiple Studies and Sites
Access multiple studies through a single sign-on, with granular permissions and configurable access rights. Give sponsors, CROs, investigators, and site personnel access to the studies, forms, and functions appropriate to their roles.
Resolve Queries and Track Changes
Identify discrepancies through automated edit checks, manage data queries, and monitor their resolution. Detailed audit trails provide visibility into data changes and user activity, supporting data traceability throughout the study.
Access Data and Reports Throughout the Study
Monitor study activity, review data status, and access configurable reports as information is collected. TrialKit’s reporting capabilities help teams examine study progress and identify areas requiring attention.
