CountThings

The counting app built for how your business works

Offline security. Trained for accuracy. Live expert support.

Available on iOS, Android, and Windows — count from any device your team already uses.

Counting for business operations

From solo operators to global enterprises, over 10,000 businesses and 1 million users worldwide trust CountThings to count their items accurately.



If you count an item routinely, CountThings can do it for you.

Our technology works across industries — from steel pipes in a yard to logs at a timber facility, from vials in a pharmacy to fish in an aquaculture pen.

We work best for operations that regularly process high volumes of a few item types.

Choose from 350+ templates ready to go, but when your items or environment need something specific, our team works with you to fine-tune counting templates for your use case.

Trusted by teams that need accuracy.
Backed by engineers who work with you.

CountThings is built by a team that has worked together for decades solving real-world industrial counting problems with computer vision and AI. Founded in Silicon Valley in 1986, we've evolved our technology in partnership with operators who depend on accurate counts for production, quality checks, shipping/receiving, and inventory.

Teams at Tata Steel, Volkswagen, Procter & Gamble, BIC, Dole, Keurig, Abbott, Nucor, and Zimmer Biomet rely on CountThings — and so do thousands of smaller operations that just need a fast, reliable way to count.

Talk to the real people behind the product.

Our engineering team is available by video call, phone, and email to optimize counting accuracy, configure the app for your workflow, and troubleshoot when something changes — lighting, packaging, process steps, or anything else that affects results.

Whether you need a quick off-the-shelf counting app, a private-label solution for your customers, or a custom enterprise integration, we'll meet you where you are.

Count moving items with CountThings from Video

CountThings from Video detects, tracks, and counts items in motion. Point a camera at a conveyor belt, a loading dock, or a livestock chute, and the software counts continuously in real time.

It works with live camera feeds and recorded video on Windows, and like our photo app, we build a custom counting template trained on your specific items and environment.



The offline difference: secure, on-device counting

A counting photo can expose production volumes, shipment cadence, SKU mix, and facility workflows. For organizations operating under GDPR, HIPAA, ITAR, or strict customer agreements, sending that imagery to the cloud creates risk.

CountThings processes images directly on your device — not in the cloud. No external storage, no internet required. That also means counting is uninterrupted in remote sites where Wi-Fi and cell connectivity is limited.

Accurate counting in your environment

Our computer vision technology doesn't just detect objects — it's trained to recognize your items against their actual background environment. That's what drives consistently high accuracy.

Our counting templates are pre-built AI models, each trained to count a specific type of object. We have 350+ ready to go out of the box. But the same item can look different depending on where you're counting it, like counting livestock on a green hillside versus on dry terrain.

That's why we offer to fine-tune templates for your specific environment — your lighting, your terrain, your materials, your facility. In most cases, this customization is free. The result is counting accuracy that generic tools can't match. Start with a template from our library, and if you need more precision, our team will optimize it for you.

Save, export, and integrate your counting data

Every count captures more than a number. CountThings can record GPS coordinates, timestamps, barcode scans, and custom form fields — giving you a complete record of what was counted, where, and when.

Save everything locally on your device, or automatically upload to Dropbox, Google Drive, Microsoft OneDrive, or your company's SMB server. For deeper integration, the app connects to your systems through web services, custom API calls, and database integration. Export to CSV or JSON anytime.

Set up your team from the admin portal

CountThings includes an admin portal to manage licenses, users, and devices across your organization.

But the real time-saver is interface customization. As an admin, you can configure exactly which features your team sees in the app, hiding everything they don't need. If your users only need to photograph, count, and save, you can strip the interface down to just those steps — no extra buttons. The result is a simpler experience for the people doing the counting, and less training and fewer errors for you.

Is CountThings right for you?

We're the antidote to repetitive counting.

AI counting apps like CountThings are incredibly effective for operations that count standardized items in relatively controlled environments. And we can handle high volumes – in fact, the more volume you have, the more time we can save you.

But AI counting apps are less accurate in environments that have an immense variety of non-standardized products – like grocery stores with 30,000 SKU's, convenience stores, and warehouses with jumbled piles that contain irregular items.

Here's a quick way to tell: If you can easily count your items by just pointing at them, we can automate that. If you need to dig through a pile, we may not be a fit.

If you have questions about whether your items can be counted, upload a photo to our team and we'll let you know.
