What it does

Camera or hardware scanner. Unknown barcodes fill themselves in from a shared catalog, with an AI fallback and Smart Scan from a photo.
Cart, tax and discounts, then Square, Tap to Pay or cash. Every checkout is an order with a receipt and Register Mode keeps costs hidden from staff.
Stocktake by scanning a shelf at a time. Preview discrepancies, commit, keep the report. Undo if you must.
Inventory value, sales, True Profit after expenses, and days of stock left on every item, with a push before you run out.
