The problem

You can't fix a shelf you can't see.

Most FMCG brands still run modern trade on WhatsApp photos, paper forms and end-of-month spreadsheets. By the time a gap shows up in the numbers, the sales are already lost.

📉

Out-of-stocks go unnoticed

A missing SKU can sit empty for weeks before anyone at head office hears about it.

📍

Visits are hard to verify

Did the merchandiser really go to the outlet, and for how long? Without GPS and time stamps, nobody can say.

🗂️

Data arrives too late

Reports are put together by hand at month end, so the shelf you see is already out of date.

Key features

Everything your field team needs, nothing it doesn't.

One mobile app for the people in the store and one dashboard for the people running the business.

Merchandiser mobile app

Opens straight from a link. Nothing to download from an app store, and it runs on any smartphone.

  • Daily route from the monthly itinerary
  • Selfie and odometer at the start and end of the day
  • Simple Yes / No / Not-listed taps for every SKU

GPS-verified visits

Every check-in and check-out is stamped with location and time, so you know who was where and for how long.

  • Fresh GPS fix on check-in
  • Time spent in each outlet
  • Route trail across the day

Shelf audit and share of shelf

Records availability and facings for your SKUs and your competitors' side by side, category by category.

  • Your brands against named competitors
  • Share of shelf by category and chain
  • Range set per chain, so no irrelevant questions

Photo proof with instant quality check

Each category comes with a shelf photo. The phone checks the photo the moment it's taken and asks for a retake if it shows the floor or a blur.

  • Works on the phone, with no internet needed
  • Supervisors see every photo kept despite a warning
  • A photo review page for the whole team

Automatic out-of-stock alerts

When one of your SKUs is missing at the same outlet visit after visit, the supervisor gets an email. Nobody has to go looking for it.

  • Consecutive out-of-stock alerts
  • Daily OOS report by email
  • Daily attendance summary

Management dashboard

A live web dashboard covering field activity, visit logs, the OOS tracker, share of shelf, attendance and photos, with a filter for every page.

  • Filter by date, chain, outlet and merchandiser
  • Upload outlets and itineraries from Excel
  • Export what you need

Built for weak signal

Supermarket back aisles often have no coverage. ShelfIQ keeps working offline and uploads everything once the phone is back online.

  • Visits and photos are saved on the phone first
  • Nothing is deleted until the upload is confirmed
  • A banner shows what's still waiting to upload

Faster visits with smart pre-fill

Each audit starts from the last visit to the same outlet, so the merchandiser only changes what has changed.

  • Unchanged rows are clearly marked
  • The dashboard flags audits nobody touched
  • Paused or delisted SKUs are hidden automatically

Secure and role-based

Each person sees only what their role allows. Data is held on Google Cloud with access rules applied on the server.

  • Manager, supervisor and merchandiser roles
  • Merchandisers see only their own visits
  • Photos are private to your team
For managers

See the whole market on one screen.

Open the dashboard in the morning and you'll know which outlets were visited, where your SKUs are missing and how your share of shelf compares with the competition. No more waiting for spreadsheets.

  • OOS tracker that shows how long each gap has lasted
  • Share of shelf against named competitors
  • Attendance and time in outlet for every merchandiser
Photo proof you can trust

Bad photos are stopped before they're saved.

Blurry shots and pictures of the floor are useless as evidence. ShelfIQ checks every shelf photo on the phone in a fraction of a second, with no internet and at no extra cost, and asks for a retake right away.

  • Caught 98% of unusable photos in testing, with no good shelf photos rejected
  • Never blocks a visit: where photos aren't allowed, the merchandiser can keep the photo and it's flagged
  • Supervisors can filter for flagged photos on the dashboard
How it works

From store shelf to boardroom, the same day.

Plan the route

Upload your outlet list and monthly itineraries from Excel. Each merchandiser's daily route appears in their app.

Check in at the outlet

A GPS-stamped check-in records arrival. The audit opens already filled from the last visit.

Audit and photograph

Tap availability, enter facings and take shelf photos, with each photo checked as it's taken. It works with or without signal.

Act on the data

The dashboard updates, out-of-stock alerts go to supervisors, and daily summaries arrive by email.

For your whole team

Built around how FMCG field teams actually work.

Sales manager

The full picture

Market-wide availability, share of shelf and team performance, plus control of users, outlets and itineraries.

Supervisor

Know where to step in

Out-of-stock alerts, attendance and visit times, and photo review, so coaching goes where it matters most.

Merchandiser

Less admin, more selling

A simple app that remembers the last visit, works without signal and gets each audit done fast.

IN DEVELOPMENT
AI shelf recognition

Snap the shelf. Let AI count the facings.

We're building AI-assisted audits: the merchandiser photographs the shelf, AI pre-fills presence and facings, and the merchandiser confirms. That means faster visits and more consistent data.

It's being tested on real shelf photos from live outlets before release.

Get started

We'll set ShelfIQ up with your categories, SKUs, competitors and outlet list, then run a pilot with your team.
