• Dots and heatmap show retained detections — review and correct the tally
About the Firewood Counter
The firewood counter counts visible firewood logs from your photo and marks detections for review. Counting starts automatically once the photo and item are ready. Visibility, overlap and similar-looking items can affect the total. Built for timber yards, sawmills and forestry teams.
How It Works
1. Photograph your firewood logs
2. Upload your photo to count firewood logs automatically
3. Review the markers and correct the tally if needed
4. Add to the tally sheet and export your count as CSV
Perfect For
• Load counts before delivery to a customer
• Seasoning stack inventories through the year
• Checking a delivered load against what was ordered
• Yard stock figures ahead of the heating season
Counting firewood logs in a stack or delivered load
Firewood is counted by suppliers before a delivery, by households and estates checking a delivered load against what was ordered, and by yards keeping track of seasoning stacks through the year. The count is pieces, not volume: firewood is often sold by volume, and a piece count tells you how many logs there are, not how much wood. Both numbers are useful, but they answer different questions.
Photograph the end of the stack straight-on so each log shows its cut end. Split logs have wedge-shaped, irregular ends, while unsplit rounds show a circle edged with bark; mark one of each as Similar items examples when the stack mixes them. Bark, sawdust and the shadows between logs make a busy picture, so shoot in even daylight rather than low sun. A stack two rows deep only shows the front row.
Stack by stack or delivery by delivery, label each reviewed row so a disputed load has its marked photo attached. For round timber loads on a truck, the log counter is built for that job, and bamboo poles use the same end-on method.
Woodpile checks
- Camera square to the cut ends
- Splits and rounds marked as separate examples
- Even daylight rather than low sun
- Each row of the stack photographed on its own
Frequently asked questions
- How should I photograph a bundle for counting?
- Shoot the ends straight-on, close enough that each end is at least a few pixels across, with even light and no strong shadows inside the bundle. Use the dots to review each retained detection, then correct misses or duplicates before using the total.
- What if the photo has more than just firewood logs in it?
- The counter automatically looks for firewood logs in your photo. Similar-looking distractors can still affect the result, so review every marker before using the total.
- Can I count several photos into one total?
- Yes — count each photo and add every reviewed result to the tally sheet as a labelled row. Export the tally as CSV or a PDF report, or save it to your account.
- Is it free and private?
- Yes. You can count, review and download a free result without an account. Downloads are free without a watermark. No signup required. Server-processed photos are encrypted in transit and removed under our Security policy.
