HOW IT WORKS

A simple workflow from photo to record.

No special counting equipment is required. Use the phone or tablet your team already carries.

01

Take a photo

Use the camera or choose an image from the gallery. If needed, focus only on the part of the image you want to count.

02

Review the count

Pipe Counter marks detected items on the image so the result is easy to check. If something needs adjustment, you can correct it manually.

03

Save or export

Keep the result in history, calculate weight and length, or create a report for your records and sharing.

WHERE PIPE COUNTER HELPS

Useful across everyday stock, production and dispatch work.

Pipe Counter is designed for practical situations where teams need to know how much pipe stock is available, received, moved or dispatched.

REPORTS & RECORDS

Turn each count into a usable record.

A count is more useful when your team can keep the details with it. Pipe Counter helps you save the result and create records for stock checks, receiving, dispatch and internal reference.

  • Selected counting area — focus the count on the part of the image you want to use.
