Tips for an accurate count
• Use an even, well-lit photo with the washers fully in frame
• Mark 1–3 example washers when other items share the photo
• Dots and heatmap show what was counted — verify at a glance
About the Washers Counter
The washers counter uses an AI similar-item engine built for dense scenes where washers touch or overlap — the case where counting by hand is slow and error-prone. Mark one to three example washers and it counts exactly that item, marking every counted one on the image so you can verify the total. Built for factories, fastener suppliers and maintenance stores.
How It Works
1. Photograph your washers
2. AI counts them — optionally mark 1–3 example washers
3. Verify with the dots and heatmap on the image
4. Add to the tally sheet and export your count as CSV
Perfect For
• Kitting and order picking checks of washers
• Incoming QC counts against the packing slip
• Bin and drawer stock audits
• Theft, loss and shrinkage spot checks
Frequently asked questions
- Do the items need to be separated before counting?
- Slight touching is fine — the density engine keeps touching items apart. Avoid full overlaps (items on top of items): spread them one layer deep under even light for an exact count.
- What if the photo has more than just washers in it?
- Mark 1–3 example washers 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.

Every control in Object Counter, explained — what it does and when to use it.
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 dense piles of one product, 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
- Type the item to count, such as cow, bottle or car, so other objects in the photo are ignored; leave it blank to count everything.
- 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 itemsDraw on image
- Drag a box around 1–3 example items 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.
