Open the page on your phone, allow camera access and point the rear camera at the items. Every few seconds a frame is analyzed by the same AI similar-item engine as the Object Counter, and the on-screen total and item markers refresh. No app install is needed — it runs in the mobile browser.

Each live frame runs a full AI inference on dedicated hardware — a single session processes dozens of frames. The one-shot photo Object Counter remains free; continuous live counting is included with Premium.

No. Live frames are analyzed in memory and immediately discarded — nothing is saved to your gallery or to our servers.

Piles or shelves of one kind of item: retail packets, boxes, bottles, toys, produce, parts and similar stock. Hold the camera steady over the items for a few seconds for the most stable count.

Drag the Detection sensitivity slider toward "Smaller items" when counting fine parts, pills or small produce that the default setting might merge together, or toward "Larger items" when boxes or bulky products are being split into false extra counts. The slider takes effect on the very next frame, so you can tune it live while watching the count update.

Every live session automatically ends after 10 minutes to protect the shared GPU and stop an idle phone from occupying processing capacity in the background. This limit is fixed and cannot be changed from the sensitivity slider or any other control, so when it triggers you'll see a 'session paused' notice over the viewfinder. Press Start camera again to immediately begin a fresh 10-minute session and keep counting a longer job in back-to-back stretches.
