How AI is used
GearChain is a no-code platform designed to track inventory, assets, and people via a mobile app and web interface. It allows users to build custom tracking forms, which can then be used to scan barcodes and NFC tags in the field. The system is designed to bridge the gap between flexible spreadsheets and secure tracking methods.
The tool is used across various operations, including retail, warehousing, and healthcare. It supports data capture on the go and syncs information in real time to Google Sheets or Microsoft Excel, which may reduce manual data entry after a shift.
Beyond basic tracking, the platform includes a blockchain ledger for recording scans to support data integrity and traceability. It also includes an AI assistant that can help users generate forms or query inventory data for restocking needs.
Buyers should confirm if their specific Microsoft account type supports the level of synchronization they require, as personal accounts have different syncing limitations than business accounts.
