Product

# A single workflow from intake to audit-ready export.

ItemStage replaces clipboards, phone galleries, and spreadsheet tracking with one mobile-first system built around how physical items actually move through your operation.

How the workflow runs

## Eight steps. One system. Zero loose photos.

1.  01 
    
    ### Intake & serial/model tracking
    
    Scan or enter a serial number, capture model, intake condition, and starting location in one mobile flow.
    
2.  02 
    
    ### Stage-based workflow
    
    Items move through a configurable multi-stage process tuned to your facility. Stages are enforced, not optional.
    
3.  03 
    
    ### Mandatory gated photo capture
    
    Required photos per stage are hard-gated — the item cannot advance until every mandated shot is captured, time-stamped, geo-tagged, and bound to the operator. This is what makes photo documentation defensible for insurance, audits, and disputes.
    
4.  04 
    
    ### Required process questions
    
    Checklist answers are required to advance — no missed steps, no quiet shortcuts.
    
5.  05 
    
    ### Team & location assignment
    
    Track who handled an item at each stage and where it physically lives — bay, trailer, shelf, or facility.
    
6.  06 
    
    ### Disposition classification
    
    Mark items as cleanable, non-restorable, salvage, return, or any custom disposition your operation uses.
    
7.  07 
    
    ### Reporting dashboard
    
    Throughput, stage time, disposition mix, and bottlenecks — filterable by 7, 30, 90, or all-time.
    
8.  08 
    
    ### CSV/image export & audit trail
    
    One-click CSV export and time-stamped image archive engineered for high-volume facility audit trails — restoration pack-outs, refurbishment lines, and reconditioning floors moving thousands of items per week. Items, answers, timestamps, operators, and dispositions bundle into a PDF export for insurance and audit review. Operational compliance, not law-enforcement forensic packaging.
    

The real app
