GearChain

Barcode inventory software syncing with Google Sheets and Excel

About GearChain

GearChain is a no-code inventory and asset tracking platform built around barcode scanning on mobile and web. Teams import an existing spreadsheet, create custom tracking forms, scan stock in and out, record transfers between locations and set low-stock alerts, while every change syncs one-way to Google Sheets or Excel for reporting. AI assists with form setup and inventory questions, and optional blockchain verification adds traceability for compliance-focused workflows.
