Why look for a Ripley alternative?

Ripley Fieldwork Tracker is well known, free, and used by tens of thousands of candidates — a genuinely helpful way to log hours and generate a monthly verification form to submit.

FieldworkABA is built for the part that comes after logging: reviewing the month, collecting both signatures in-app, keeping feedback attached to the record, and storing everything for the 7 years BACB requires — all in one connected workflow for trainees and supervisors.

What FieldworkABA adds

The features candidates most often want once logging alone isn’t enough.

Sign without printing

Trainee signs and supervisor countersigns the monthly verification form in-app — no print, sign, scan, email.

Log by voice

Capture an entry by voice-to-text when typing isn’t practical — then it’s categorized like any other entry.

Feedback on the record

Supervisor review and feedback stay attached to the month — not lost in email.

Kept for 7 years

Every signed form and record stays in secure 7-year storage, audit-ready and downloadable.
