Truke KF

More than a wiki but less than a bureaucracy.


A knowledge base for engineering teams. Capture failures, assess risks, plan corrective actions, and reuse lessons learned — without spreadsheets.

 

✓ Free for teams up to 5
✓ No registration to evaluate

Features

Wiki & structured items

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.

Failure analysis & FMEA

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.

Risk assessment

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.

Types & knowledge reuse

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.

Checklists

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.

Gantt charts

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.

Supported standards

ISO 9001

Quality management

Document control, corrective actions, and supplier audit checklists — wired to the items they apply to.

SAE J1739

FMEA

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.

ISO 26262

Functional safety

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.
