Key features that drive results

AI-driven daily companion that transforms operational tasks into strategic shelf performance

Smart alerts and task prioritization

Receive intelligent alerts on sensitive products, critical stockouts, and freshness risks based on real-time analysis. The system prioritizes your daily tasks: morning setup, mid-day replenishment, evening preparation. Teams focus on what matters most at the right time.

AI photo analysis of freshness and merchandising

Take a photo of your shelves and receive instant feedback on product freshness, layout compliance, and merchandising quality. Computer vision detects out-of-stock gaps, misplacements, and freshness issues, guiding teams toward optimal presentation and reduced waste.

Dynamic layout recommendations

Get contextual planogram suggestions optimized for your store's inventory, promotions, seasonality, and 20/80 products. The AI adapts shelf space allocation based on the headquarter recommandation, actual deliveries and sales velocity, maximizing revenue per linear meter while maintaining freshness standards.

Process

Your daily companion,
from opening to closing

Smarttasking guides F&V teams through each key step of the day with simple recommendations, built-in training and AI analysis. New associates can use it from day one with no ramp-up. No more juggling tools or paper lists. Everything you need to act fast sits in your pocket, ready in seconds in the aisle.

Analyse

Measurable business impact

Smarttasking improves your key fresh KPIs through better daily execution. Teams save 30% of their time on tasks like labeling and checks, giving managers space for strategic analysis that builds steady revenue and margin gains. Stores cut shrink by 25% on sensitive items such as raspberries, leafy greens and berries through smart rotation alerts and freshness checks. Sales increase 2–4% with stronger availability on core products and better merchandising compliance. Critical stockouts drop by 50% thanks to proactive alerts and clearer inventory visibility, and freshness NPS rises by 10 points as shoppers find top quality throughout the day

FAQs

Everything you need to know about implementing Smarttasking in your stores

How does Smarttasking work with Smartorder?

Smarttasking works independently of Smartorder, though integration amplifies both products. Use Smarttasking standalone for shelf management, task prioritization, and team guidance, or combine with Smartorder for end-to-end fresh operations, from AI-powered ordering to daily execution and performance tracking. The two products share data on inventory, waste, and freshness to provide unified intelligence.

What does the AI photo analysis actually detect?

Computer vision algorithms analyze shelf photos to detect: out-of-stock gaps, product misplacements vs. planogram, freshness degradation signals (browning, wilting, packaging damage), layout compliance issues, and price coherence problems. The system provides instant feedback with specific recommendations.

How quickly can teams learn to use Smarttasking?

Most team members are proficient within 30 minutes of hands-on use. The mobile interface is designed for speed and simplicity.

What products benefit most from Smarttasking?

All F&V products benefit, but sensitive, high-velocity items see the greatest impact: leafy greens, berries, herbs, cut fruits, and other short-shelf-life products where freshness monitoring and rotation guidance prevent significant waste. The system also prioritizes 20/80 products that drive 70% of revenue, ensuring stockout alerts and merchandising recommendations focus on what matters most to your bottom line.

Can Smarttasking help with team training and knowledge retention?

Yes! Smarttasking embeds training directly into daily workflows through: contextual product advice (storage, handling, shelf-life), video tutorials accessible from the aisle, conversational AI for instant answers to product questions, and photo-based feedback that shows teams what great looks like. This approach addresses the industry's high-turnover challenge by building expertise continuously, shift by shift, rather than through one-time training sessions that fade quickly.

What hardware is required?

Smarttasking runs on handheld terminals or standard tablets. The device needs a camera for photo analysis features and internet connectivity for real-time alerts and AI recommendations.
