About PathProof

PathProof is built by Zenith App Foundry, a team of expert product engineers, working alongside a practising master scheduler who runs it on live programmes.

The same team designs and ships commissioned products through our sister studio, Zenith Consulting Services.

Built with a working scheduler

In developing PathProof we worked with a master scheduler, testing it against the difficult scenarios rather than tidy demo files. That is how we identified the features schedulers need most. We will keep listening to feedback from users to shape the roadmap.

Why it exists

The checks PathProof runs are not new. Schedulers have been doing them by hand for decades: filtering for open ends, counting hard constraints, tracing why a milestone moved, comparing this update against last one row at a time. That is expert work done well, and none of it should have to be done by hand. It stayed manual because the tools that automate it properly cost thousands per seat, or wanted a live programme uploaded to somebody's cloud. PathProof does the same work in seconds, on your own machine, at a price a single scheduler can justify.

The company

PathProof is a product of Zenith App Foundry, a registered business name of Zenith Consulting Services Pty Ltd (ABN 29 918 988 901), an Australian company based in Brisbane.

PathProof is the first product to carry the Zenith App Foundry name, and it is backed by an established consulting business rather than a runway. That is why the beta can stay free for as long as it takes to get right, and why the support email is answered by the engineers who build it.

What happens after the beta

Beta users get clear notice before anything changes, and your feedback during the beta shapes both the features and the price. There is no data hostage situation to worry about either: your schedules were never on our servers to begin with, and the reports you export are CSV/Excel/PDF files that stay yours.

Getting in touch

Questions, bugs, or a schedule that will not load: use the contact form or email support@zenithappfoundry.com. A person reads every message. If your IT team needs the technical detail before you install anything, that is on the IT and security page.
