Dentro started from a problem everyone knows: the boxes down in the cellar. The ones sealed for years with "misc" scrawled on the side in marker, that you open one by one every time you are looking for something. Here is how Dentro works: you open the box, photograph what you put in it, and give it a label. Next time you need something you look at the label and see what is inside - without opening anything. TWO WAYS TO LABEL, YOU CHOOSE You print the QR code and stick it on: point the camera at it and the box opens. If you have no printer to hand - or twenty boxes to seal in a hurry - every box also has a six-digit number: write it with a marker and type it into the app when you need it. Same result, no paper. And if you cannot even remember which box it is in? Type "drill" into the search and the app tells you. WHAT IT DOES - QR labels to print and stick on boxes, containers, trunks - Six-digit number to write by hand, for anyone who would rather not print - Photos and descriptions of what you put inside - Search: type the name of an item and find out which box it is in - AI recognition: photograph the contents and the list of items fills itself in (then you check it). It is optional: you turn it on by connecting your own AI key from Settings - Google Gemini, OpenAI or Anthropic Claude. Gemini has a free tier and the key stays on your phone. Everything else in Dentro works without it - Private boxes (only you see them) or public ones, with an eight-digit code you can read out over the phone to whoever you like - A torch built into the scanner, because cellars are dark - Your data follows you: same account on your phone and on the website - Nine languages: Italian, English, French, Spanish, German, Portuguese, Romanian, Greek, Albanian WHEN IT SAVES YOU - Moving house: you know what is in every box before you open it - Changing seasons: clothes, decorations, sports gear - Cellar, attic, garage, lock-up: everything you will "sort out later" - Grandparents' house, holiday home, storage unit - Work: props, spare parts, archives Dentro is free. No subscriptions, no locked features. The app contains ads. A NiFe Studio app - made in Milan, Italy
