Samples on shelves, knowledge in people's heads

A company keeps tens of thousands of samples in binders, boxes and shelves. “Where is that navy gabardine from last spring, and who sent it?” Usually only one person knows. skanteks turns that archive into one everyone can search.

How it works

  1. 1

    Snap

    Photograph samples one after another with your phone. Even on weak warehouse Wi-Fi, photos upload in turn.

  2. 2

    Labelled automatically

    skanteks suggests the category and attributes from the photo; you check and confirm.

  3. 3

    Find

    Search by typing, or photograph the fabric in your hand and see its look-alikes in your archive.

Who it is for

  • Sample librarian

    Files incoming samples quickly and keeps the archive in order.

  • Designer

    Looks for “something like this, but in wool”, compares and picks.

  • Purchasing

    Knows which supplier each sample came from and whom to contact.
