Stock-taking is a must. But it doesn’t have to be expensive or tedious.
The annual stock-take is mandatory — and for most smaller businesses, it’s a real struggle: tally sheets on paper, figures typed into Excel, counting errors that nobody notices until the figures don’t add up. Hours during which the team is tied up instead of selling.
So far, the alternatives haven’t been real alternatives:
The tried-and-tested stripes Cloud runs in the background. You can track the progress of your stock-take in real time, check the quality of your count and, once completed, export a reliable result for further processing.
The app is powered by the same stock-taking technology used in thousands of stock-taking projects across Europe. This means that even smaller retailers and chain stores can benefit from a professional solution that allows them to carry out their own stock-taking simply, flexibly and without investing in specialist hardware.
The app that turns your smartphone into an inventory scanner.
With the stripes app, you can record your stock item by item using barcodes – directly with your Android device’s camera and without any additional hardware. The app has been deliberately kept simple so that you can start taking stock without the need for lengthy training.

From data capture to analysis: stripes offers all the features required for a structured, efficient and traceable stock-taking process – without any unnecessary complexity:
| Geräte & Erfassung | Inventurprozess | Kontrolle & Auswertung |
|---|---|---|
| Bring your own device: Nutzen Sie handelsübliche Android-Geräte (ab Android 14). Spezialhardware, Mietgeräte oder hohe Investitionskosten entfallen. | Übersichtlicher Scan-Modus: Die Benutzeroberfläche ist speziell für größere Touch-Displays entwickelt und ermöglicht eine einfache Bedienung – auch für ungeübte Zähler. | Live-Fortschritt im Webportal: Verfolgen Sie den aktuellen Stand Ihrer Inventur jederzeit im Webportal am PC oder Laptop – auch standortübergreifend. |
| Barcode-Scan mit der Gerätekamera: Erfassen Sie Artikel direkt mit der Kamera Ihres Smartphones oder Tablets – ganz ohne separaten Barcode-Scanner. | Kundenspezifische Zähl-Flows: Passen Sie den Inventurablauf an Ihre Bestände, Prozesse und Anforderungen an – statt mit starren Standardabläufen zu arbeiten. | Verify: Prüfen mit eigenen Regeln: Definieren Sie individuelle Prüfvorschriften und sichern Sie die Qualität der Inventur durch integrierte Status- und Plausibilitätsprüfungen. |
| OCR-Erfassung: Auch Artikel ohne Barcode lassen sich über die Kamera anhand von Artikelnummern oder Bezeichnungen erfassen – eine Funktion, die nur wenige Inventurlösungen bieten. | Stichprobe & Vollständigkeitskontrolle: Kontrollieren Sie die Vollständigkeit der Inventur und führen Sie Stichproben durch – für belastbare Ergebnisse. | 7 Sprachen: Deutsch, Englisch, Rumänisch, Polnisch, Ungarisch, Französisch und Bulgarisch – ideal für mehrsprachige Teams. |
| Bluetooth-Fingerscanner-Unterstützung: Nutzen Sie bei Bedarf einen Bluetooth-Fingerscanner für noch schnellere Erfassungen – ohne auf teure Spezialhardware umzusteigen. | – | – |
