Tips for an accurate count
• Use an even, well-lit photo with the roofing sheets fully in frame
• Mark 1–3 example roofing sheets when other items share the photo
• Dots and heatmap show what was counted — verify at a glance
About the Roofing Sheets Counter
The roofing sheets counter uses an AI similar-item engine built for dense scenes where roofing sheets touch or overlap — the case where counting by hand is slow and error-prone. Mark one to three example roofing sheets and it counts exactly that item, marking every counted one on the image so you can verify the total. Built for builders, site managers and building-material suppliers.
How It Works
1. Photograph your roofing sheets
2. AI counts them — optionally mark 1–3 example roofing sheets
3. Verify with the dots and heatmap on the image
4. Add to the tally sheet and export your count as CSV
Perfect For
• Verifying roofing sheets on delivery against the order
• Site stock counts between project phases
• Yard and store audits without climbing the stacks
• Theft, loss and shrinkage spot checks
Frequently asked questions
- Can it count a full stack when some items are hidden?
- It counts what is visible in the photo. For regular stacks, photograph one face and multiply by the depth, or photograph each face and combine them in the tally sheet — the marked image gives you proof for every face you counted.
- What if the photo has more than just roofing sheets in it?
- Mark 1–3 example roofing sheets by dragging a box around them and the AI counts exactly that item, ignoring everything else in the frame. Every counted item gets a dot on the image so you can verify the total at a glance.
- Can I count several photos into one total?
- Yes — every count can be added to the tally sheet as a labelled row, or use Bulk audit to upload many photos at once. Export the result as a CSV, generate a PDF report, or save the stock-take to your account and share a read-only link with your team.
- Is it free and private?
- Yes — counting photos is free to preview; create a free account to download for everyday use. Free downloads of the marked-up image carry a small “Counted with Pixoate” badge; with Premium that same download is watermark-free. Photos are uploaded only to process and are deleted automatically afterwards; we never keep or share them.

Upload
- Single photo / Bulk auditPresets
- Switches between counting one photo at a time and Bulk audit (Premium), which counts a whole queue of photos and adds every result to the tally sheet with a grand total.Options: Single photoBulk audit
Count
- Add to tallyOne-click
- Adds the current photo's count as a new row on the tally sheet so counts from several shelves, crates or batches combine into one stock-take.
- Counting modePresets
- Chooses the counting engine: Auto picks the best one for the photo, Similar items handles piles and rows of bricks, Distinct objects labels each separate item, and Max accuracy cross-checks every engine (slower).Options: AutoSimilar itemsDistinct objectsMax accuracy
- ConfidenceSliderRange: 0–1 · Default: 0.05
- Re-filters the marked detections after a count — slide toward Only confident to drop doubtful marks or toward Show more to include faint ones; the total updates instantly.
- Overlay stylePresets
- Sets how counted items appear on the live preview — dots on each item, a density heatmap, both, or a clean image — so you can verify the total visually.Options: BothDotsHeatNone
- What to countText input
- Names the item to count and comes pre-filled with bricks; clear or change it to count a different item in the photo.
- Detection sensitivitySliderRange: 0–1 · Default: 0.5
- Controls how eagerly items are marked, from Larger items to Smaller items — raise it if small or faint items are missed, lower it if specks or shadows inflate the count.
Examples
- Mark example bricksDraw on image
- Drag a box around 1–3 example bricks on the photo to teach the counter exactly which item to count in a busy or mixed scene.
Tally
- LabelText input
- Renames a tally row (e.g. Shelf 4 — 500ml) so each counted photo stays identifiable in the exported stock-take.
- CountNumber input
- Lets you hand-correct a row's counted number (minimum 0) if you spot a miscount; the running total and the CSV or PDF export update immediately.
Advanced
- Result overlayDropdown
- Chooses how the downloadable result image is annotated so the count can be verified on the saved file; not used in Distinct objects mode.Options: Dots + heatmapDots onlyHeatmap only
- Ignore small detectionsSliderRange: 0–1 · Default: 0
- Filters out detections smaller than the chosen size, from Off to Large only, so dust, specks and distant clutter stop inflating the total.

Real problems it solves every day — for businesses, creators, and everyday tasks. Find the use case that fits you and start in seconds.
Verify a Brick Delivery Before Unloading
Photograph the pallet as it's dropped on site, count it in seconds, and check the total against the supplier's delivery note before the truck leaves.
Track Remaining Material Between Phases
Photograph the leftover stack at the end of a build phase and compare the count to what was delivered, so you know exactly how much is left for the next phase without a manual recount.
Audit a Whole Yard in One Batch
Switch to Bulk audit, upload a photo of every stack in the merchant's yard at once, and get a combined grand total instead of counting pallet by pallet.
Count Site Stock from Your Phone
Walk the site snapping each stack with your phone camera, add every result to the Tally sheet, and export the day's site stock as a CSV or PDF report for the site manager.
Separate Bricks from Mixed Site Debris
Mark 1-3 example bricks so the AI counts only bricks in a photo that also shows blocks, rubble or other material, ignoring everything else in frame.
Estimate a Full Pallet Total from a Single Face Photo
Count the bricks visible on one face of a rectangular stack, then multiply by the known depth for a fast estimate of the whole pallet — useful when climbing around a stack to photograph every face isn't practical on a busy site.
