Stockpiper

A shop-floor inventory companion for label capture, catalog cleanup and source-backed stock questions.

Stockpiper product concept in a branded setting

Designed around4 AI workflows

Project overview

Stockpiper explores small shop inventory through a mobile experience built around a barcode-first stock screen with large one-handed actions. A shop-floor inventory companion for label capture, catalog cleanup and source-backed stock questions. The proposed journey connects shelf scan, catalog cleaner, ask stock notes, count session. Four original phone showcases establish the visual direction, while the case study defines the supporting feature set and a proposed Java architecture.

The challenge

Shop staff need scanned labels, voice notes and item records connected while proposed stock changes remain explicit. On a phone, the person also needs to capture information quickly, understand where an answer came from and return to the original material without navigating through a dense desktop interface.

  • Keep shelf scan and catalog cleaner connected within a short mobile flow.
  • Make label reading correctable when the model misreads the input.
  • Explain inventory retrieval through visible references or user-selected preferences.
  • Keep changes, sharing and data retention under explicit user control.

Our solution

The design begins with a barcode-first stock screen with large one-handed actions, using large touch targets, short task sequences and contextual sheets. Extract candidate item fields from packaging labels. Suggest consistent titles and categories for approval. The companion views keep drafts, original material and accepted decisions distinct. A indigo, mint and cream visual system gives this app its own character within the collection.

  • Extract candidate item fields from packaging labels.
  • Suggest consistent titles and categories for approval.
  • Answer questions from recorded stock data with source entries.
  • Group unresolved count notes without automatically changing quantities.

Key features

  • Shelf scan

    Review a barcode scan with an item record and a Confirm quantity field.

  • Catalog cleaner

    Review AI-suggested product title corrections with before-and-after rows.

  • Ask stock notes

    Review source-linked answers about user-recorded item locations and stock observations.

  • Count session

    Review counted items, discrepancy notes, offline drafts and review-before-sync.

  • Label reading

    Extract candidate item fields from packaging labels.

  • Catalog normalization

    Suggest consistent titles and categories for approval.

  • Inventory retrieval

    Answer questions from recorded stock data with source entries.

  • Discrepancy summaries

    Group unresolved count notes without automatically changing quantities.

  • Count sessions

    Group observations under a specific shelf check.

  • Quantity confirmation

    Require a person to confirm the recorded count.

  • Offline drafts

    Keep the current count record on the device.

  • Location references

    Record the item's shelf or storage position.

Proposed technology stack

Proposed Android architecture using Java and Android Views. AI processing, storage and synchronization are design proposals for this concept, not integrations implemented by this portfolio.

  • Java
  • Android Views
  • SQLite
  • AI services

The results

The concept defines four mobile views, four AI workflows and twelve feature areas. The next validation would ask a user to complete shelf scan, inspect the proposed catalog cleaner output and correct an intentional extraction or suggestion error. Evaluation would focus on source traceability, correction effort and task completion. No usability study or business-impact measurement is claimed.
