E-paper
Print, not a screen
The label draws power only when the image changes, so a coin cell lasts years. It holds its price with no power at all and reads like paper under shop lighting.
One record
The shelf cannot disagree with the till
Both read the same price record, so the mismatch that causes disputes at the checkout stops happening.
Confirmation
Every label reports back
Updates are acknowledged, so you can see which labels are current and which need attention.
Templates
More than a price
Unit price, was-price, allergen icons, QR codes and stock location all sit in the label template.
Where the price goes after someone types it
Live in seconds. No reprinting, no relabelling.
EPOS system
Price, product name and promotions are edited once, where staff already work.
The EPOS posts each change straight to the platform over HTTPS. Real time, no hardware in store.
A small device at the till reads the exported price file on a schedule. Fits any legacy EPOS, no development.
ESL management
Maps product to label, renders the artwork from a template, queues the update for the store.
Price edited
Staff change the price once, in the EPOS.
Change detected
The API call fires, or the dongle picks it up on its next poll.
Artwork rendered
The platform builds the new label image from the template.
Broadcast
The access point transmits to the addressed label.
Shelf matches till
The label redraws and confirms. Shelf and till now agree.
Two ways to connect.
Which one suits you depends on your EPOS, not on your budget — we will tell you which after the survey.
API
Live pushYour EPOS posts each change directly to the platform over HTTPS as it happens.
- Real time, no polling delay
- No extra hardware in the store
- Scales cleanly across many sites
Needs support from your EPOS vendor
Dongle
PolledA small device at the till reads your exported price file on a schedule and forwards the changes.
- Works with legacy EPOS
- No development needed
- Quick to fit — plug in and go
Updates arrive on the poll interval
Either way the access point does the same job: it sits in the ceiling, wired to the store network, and broadcasts over 2.4 GHz RF to every label in range. One access point usually covers a whole small store.
What they are
A paper ticket that listens to your database
Each label is a small e-paper screen clipped into the shelf rail. E-paper draws power only when the image changes, so a coin cell lasts over ten years. The label holds its price with no power at all, and it looks like print under shop lighting — no glare, no backlight, readable from any angle.
One price, everywhere
The shelf can no longer disagree with the till, because both read the same record.
No more ticket runs
Promotions start and end on schedule without anyone walking the aisles with a printer.
Every label reports back
Updates are acknowledged, so you can see which labels are current and which need attention.
Room for more than price
Unit price, was-price, allergen icons, QR codes and stock location all sit in the template.
What we need to scope an integration
Most of this comes from your EPOS provider rather than from the stores.
