No. Cal is a search and checklist built into the app. It finds pages, records and answers from NominalQC’s own reference, and works out what a record still needs from the same rules the app enforces.

Can Cal change a record?

No. It finds things and opens them; you make the change.

Cal open beside a CAPA: the CAPA’s owner and overdue due date, and a checklist — root cause recorded, corrective action recorded, effectiveness not yet verified — with what the close still needs

Cal searching a part number: every inspection, NCR, CAPA, quality alert and the part itself, each with its status and date

Cal answering how inspection-plan enforcement modes work, with a link to where the setting lives

What you can do

Ctrl+K from any screen, or Ask Cal in the sidebar
Jump to any page, register or Settings tab, or straight into a new NCR, CAPA, gauge, inspection or register record
Find a record by number, part number, asset tag or keyword — inspections, NCRs, CAPAs, gauges, parts, documents, alerts and every register — only what your own login can see
On a record, a live checklist of what’s left: a CAPA’s root cause, corrective action and effectiveness evidence (the close is refused without them), an NCR’s disposition and owner, whether a gauge can be picked, who hasn’t acknowledged a document, a register’s empty required fields
How-to answers drawn from the same reference the app is built from, each with a link to where it lives
Plain software, no AI: answers are instant, the same every time, and nothing you type is sent to an AI model
It opens pages; it never creates, edits or deletes anything
