When printing happens
Pages by weekday and hour. Load peaks on the fleet show up at a glance, and so do the hours nobody prints.
ecoAI Reports lives on the same server as PaperCut MF. The data is stored there, the reports are computed there, and that is where it all stays.
What you type in the chat does travel, so the change can be written: keep names and figures out of it.
The Summary, the first screen after sign-in. Every figure on it is computed on the PaperCut server itself.
Ready on day one
They read the same data PaperCut already exports, so they fill in as soon as the first job is printed. No templates to build, no spreadsheets to merge.
Eight figures for the period, then monthly volume and cost, usage by site, department and person, paper sizes, duplex adoption and the busiest devices.
Pages by weekday and hour. Load peaks on the fleet show up at a glance, and so do the hours nobody prints.
Every user with department, site, jobs, pages, sheets and pages per job. Search, sort, and export to CSV.
Pick a dimension, click a block, pick the next one. Site, then department, then person, then printer, in any order.
Each dot is a device, sized by its jobs. The expensive ones and the idle ones stand out, and the inventory below lists every device.
One filter bar on top of every report
Change the period or pick a department and the whole page answers for that slice, figures and charts alike.
Open the studio beside any report and describe the change in plain words. It writes the change, runs it on your own data, and shows you the result before anything is saved.
The studio opens beside the report, with suggestions to start from.
“The studio writes on this server; only the structure of the report and your request travel.”
New report, written by the studio
Give it a name and say what you want to see. The studio writes it with this server's data, from a blank page or from a copy of a report you already have.
Download PDF, on every report
The file states the period it covers, the date it was issued and its page numbers.
History that PaperCut would have deleted
PaperCut's data export cleans up old files on a schedule. ecoAI Reports copies each one as it arrives into its own store on the server, so next year's report can still compare with this year's.
Already running PaperCut for a while? ecoAI Reports can ask it to re-export what it still holds from before the installation, the way the vendor documents it.

Security
The panel, the reports and their charts all load from the PaperCut server itself. Reports cannot pull scripts or images from the internet.
The panel answers over HTTPS with its own certificate, created at install time and limited to this server's names.
Administrators change reports and settings. Viewers read reports. Every request is checked on the server, not only hidden in the menu.
The PaperCut admin can sign in with the same username and password, and the PaperCut users you invite with theirs. ecoAI Reports' own accounts work just as well.
A system service next to PaperCut MF, back on its own after a restart
On the PaperCut MF server: the .exe on Windows, or the .sh package on Linux. ecoprintQ sends you the link.
The installer configures PaperCut's data export. You press Load Integrations once in PaperCut's admin portal, under Reports › Data Integrations.
Browse to https://your-server:8711 and sign in. The reports fill in as PaperCut exports.
