Capturing your inventory

“But then I’d have to capture everything first” — no. Your Excel list is imported in an afternoon, and whatever is still missing you photograph with your phone as you walk round. You type very little. Start with one room.

  • Your list, in within an afternoon — upload Excel or CSV, the AI maps the columns. If you like, we do the import for you free of charge — send us the list.
  • With your phone through the building — one photo per item, the AI suggests name and details. You just keep walking.
  • Go through it later, at your own pace — your captures wait as drafts until you publish them at the computer or on your phone.
  • One by one, when it has to be quick — “New item”, add a photo, done.
  • Existing numbers stay — the inventory or barcode number from your list becomes a scannable code right away on import.

You can mix the routes: import the list first, then add what’s missing on your walk-through.

  1. In the mobile app, tap “New item” in the “Scan” tab (from the Manager role). The camera starts a photo series.

  2. One photo per item. Every photo is saved right away. If there’s a barcode in the picture, it is linked to the item straight away.

  3. “Done” when the room is captured. In the “Scan” tab the round shows under “Captured this round”: the AI has given every capture a name, and each is “Ready to review”. All captures are waiting as your personal drafts.

    The "Scan" tab after a photo round: under "Captured this round (3)" a cordless drill, an angle grinder and a digital multimeter in its case, each with photo, AI name and "Ready to review"

    Three photos, three names from the AI — ready to review.

A colleague with the Manager role can do the walk-through too — each person then sees their own drafts.

Under “Drafts” in the web app, your captures are grouped by day. “Review drafts” shows them one after the other: photo on top, fields below, the AI’s suggestions already filled in. Pick a category, add details, “Create” — and on to the next capture. Anything photographed by mistake you discard right there.

"Review drafts": the photo on top, the fields below, the note that the AI pre-filled 2 fields, and "Discard", "Save", "Create" at the bottom

  • Drafts are yours — nobody else sees them until you publish them.
  • A reminder — as long as captures are open, My tasks shows the row “Review your captures”.
  • On your phone too — if you prefer, go through the captures right in the app.

Under “Items” → “New item”. Attach a photo, and “Prefill from photo” fills in the form. Fields and categories are explained under Items.

Stick on labels — from then on, every scan finds the right item: Barcodes & labels.
