Shelf Image Recognition

Streamline your planogram compliance audit with AI powered image recognition in Quant.

Ensuring optimal product placement on shelves is key to maximizing sales and improving the customer experience in retail. That is why you always want to make sure that the planograms you have carefully designed are actually being used by your stores and that the products are correctly placed.

Yet, monitoring planogram implementation manually at larger scale is an extremely time-consuming and error-prone task. Manual planogram compliance check requires your employees to compare a large number of photos of the implementation against planograms while looking for inconsistencies. In the case of missing products, it is also necessary to verify whether the product is out of stock or whether the planogram simply has not been executed properly by the staff.

Our innovative AI-powered product image recognition technology allows you to swiftly and effortlessly identify potential issues. Just provide a photo and Quant automatically evaluates the compliance rate, providing you with a clear and actionable view of your planogram implementation.

How it works

Shelf image recognition works best if you share planograms directly in Quant using a device with a camera, such as a smart phone or tablet. The implementation photo is then automatically matched with the corresponding planogram, streamlining the process and saving your valuable time.

Our advanced AI then analyzes the uploaded photos and provides immediate feedback on the quality of the implementation.

If a position shows as empty, Quant automatically distinguishes whether the store has the corresponding product in stock or not.

Your HQ has a list of all the implementation images across all your stores, ranked by quality, so you can efficiently focus on solving the most pressing issues.

Main benefits

Quick Setup

The main advantage of Quant's Shelf Image Recognition is its ease of deployment.

No need to install cameras or other expensive technology in your stores. All you need is a camera on a mobile device that can take a photo with at least 10 Mpix resolution.
No need to upload extra photos of products from many angles. The images of the products you already have in Quant to create planograms will usually suffice.
No need to wait for the AI to retrain to recognize a new product. We detect products based on similarity, so you do not have to upload your product photos in advance.

Efficient Process

Delegating the tedious task of comparing planogram to in-store implementation images to our AI tool will enhance your operational efficiency. You can easily free up some manpower previously used for manual planogram compliance checks, while still having the benefit of minimizing lost sales and maximize customer satisfaction with carefully crafted product display.

Fully responsive

Quant web version is fully responsive, allowing you to use Shelf image reconigition on a desktop with already existing photos or capture images of shelves directly in the store on a tablet or smartphone through Quant web app.

Integration with Task Management

If our image recognition detects that planograms are not correctly implemented, you can create a follow-up task directly in Quant Task Management. Whether a product is missing without a valid reason or is misplaced, tasks necessary to fix this can be assigned to the appropriate employee directly in Quant.

Integrated solution

Using many separate tools leads to inaccuracies and delays and is very cost inefficient. If you are already a Quant user, you will appreciate the seamless integration of Shelf image recognition directly into our platform without the need for any special implementation on your end. We offer a comprehensive user-friendly retail solution that is designed to ensure that the data you once input is fully accessible and usable across the entire system, eliminating the need to duplicate entries and saving your time.

Easy to use

An intuitive user interface without unnecessary complexity, a clear online manual and direct user support guarantee that users will quickly grow fond of Quant. Quant has long been one of the top-rated solutions in the Retail Management Software category on G2.

Unlimited number of users

The Quant Retail Planning edition does not limit the number of users. You will never have to solve the dilemma of whether it is worth making useful data and tools available to another user even at the cost of buying another license.
