Describe by pointing
One photo replaces a name, a description and a lot of typing.
AI from a photo
Add Inventory From a Photo
Snap a picture of any part and AI identifies it, names it and writes the description — so adding an unfamiliar item takes a photo instead of a paragraph.
- Point, shoot, and the fields fill themselves in
- Tuned by your field of business for better accuracy
- Review and edit everything before it saves
- The photo becomes the item image automatically
How photo-based inventory entry works
The slowest part of inventory is not counting — it is describing. Typing "M8 zinc-plated hex bolt, box of 100" for the fortieth time is where good intentions go to die, and it is why so many catalogues are full of entries like "bolts (small)".
Photograph the item instead. The AI identifies what it is, proposes a name and a proper description, and pre-fills the form. Because you set your field of business at signup, it interprets the image in context — an automotive parts shop and a bakery get very different readings of the same silver cylinder.
What you get
Industry-aware
Your field of business tunes the model so identifications match your world.
You stay in control
Everything lands in an editable form — nothing saves without your say-so.
The image sticks
The photo becomes the item picture, so the catalogue is visual by default.
Great for unfamiliar stock
New staff can add items correctly without knowing the terminology.
Duplicate protection
If a similar name exists, you are asked whether to merge, create new, or skip.
The catalogue you would actually maintain
Descriptions get written when writing them is free. That is the whole argument for photo entry.

Frequently asked questions
How accurate is AI photo recognition for inventory?
Very good on distinctive, well-lit products and weaker on generic ones — a branded box is easy, an unmarked black bracket is hard. Setting your field of business improves it noticeably because the model interprets ambiguous shapes in your industry’s context. Since every result lands in an editable form before saving, a wrong guess costs a few keystrokes rather than a bad record.
Can I add inventory by taking pictures in bulk?
Yes — select many photos at once and the AI identifies the most prominent item in each, groups them, and presents the whole set for review before anything saves. It is the fastest way to catalogue a shelf you have never entered.
Is photo identification free?
AI capture is part of the Pro plan and above ($10/month). The free tier includes manual entry and barcode scanning for up to 50 items, so you can build a working catalogue without it.
Do the photos stay in my inventory?
Yes — the photo you capture becomes the item image, stored with your account, so your catalogue is visual without any extra step. Images are optimised on upload so they do not bloat your storage.
