An automatic counting app built for organizations with repetitive counting tasks, designed to be secure and private. HANDS-ON SETUP & DEDICATED SUPPORT While CountThings works out of the box for many organizations, every operational workflow is unique. Unlike typical self-serve apps where you are left on your own, our team is directly available to speak with you and ensure your deployment succeeds. Contact us to create specialized Counting Templates for your specific items and environment, usually at no charge. Counting Templates are downloadable plugins that teach the app what to count. Reach out anytime to schedule a live walkthrough, explore configuration options, or consult with our team on best practices for integrating the app into your operations. FEATURE CONTROL Easily include optional tools like reports, forms, integrations, or your corporate branding and logo. Administrators can pre-configure user permissions and settings, so operators only see the specific screens, buttons, and visual elements needed for their repetitive counting tasks. 100% OFFLINE COUNTING For privacy and security, all counting processes run directly on your device rather than over the internet. You can count items anywhere, even with no active network connection. An internet connection is needed for initial setup, such as downloading Counting Templates, activating licenses, and syncing organization settings. DIRECT EXPERT SUPPORT Our technical team is readily available via video meetings to help you fine-tune the app for your operational needs and provide hands-on guidance for your workflow setup. Contact us anytime at support@CountThings.com.
