Many organizations still rely on manual inventory tracking—counting items by hand, estimating usage, or entering data after the fact. This often leads to inaccurate reporting, wasted inventory, and costly operational blind spots.

That’s the problem Countifi and it's founder David Hailey are solving by using AI and computer vision to automatically track inventory and provide real-time insights.

David is the Founder and CEO of Countifi, an Atlanta-based company transforming how organizations manage inventory through artificial intelligence and computer vision.

Countifi replaces manual inventory counting with AI-powered visual recognition technology that can automatically track and manage assets in real time. By simply using cameras or mobile devices, organizations can capture images of their inventory and instantly generate accurate counts, analytics, and reports that help forecast demand, reduce waste, and improve operational efficiency.
