How Teams Use SnapCount

Walk through real-world scenarios where SnapCount replaces clipboards, radios, and spreadsheets.

Volunteer onboarding via QR

The Problem

Each gate has a volunteer with a mechanical clicker. Totals are radioed to a command tent every 30 minutes, then typed into a spreadsheet. By the time numbers are compiled, they are stale. When the fire marshal asks for current occupancy, nobody has an accurate answer.

How SnapCount Solves It

Create a shared SnapCount session with four increment-only counters — one per gate. Volunteers scan a QR code to join (no download, no account). The command tent watches a single dashboard showing live occupancy across all gates. At close, export a timestamped CSV for the post-event compliance report.

The Outcome

Stale radio-relay totals are replaced with a live number. The safety director can answer occupancy questions instantly. Post-event reporting becomes a single CSV export instead of a manual spreadsheet exercise. Volunteers need zero training beyond tapping a button.

Temp onboarding

The Problem

Each team of 4-6 people uses clipboards, then a manager keys numbers into Excel. Discrepancies between the physical count and the spreadsheet are common and take hours to trace. Temporary workers need training on the tally-sheet format before they can start.

How SnapCount Solves It

Each warehouse gets its own SnapCount organization with counters per aisle zone. Managers watch a live grid view showing every zone in real time. Temps scan a QR code and start counting immediately. Activity logs show which user tapped and when, making discrepancy investigation straightforward.

The Outcome

The transcription step from clipboard to Excel is eliminated. Discrepancies are caught in real time while counters are still on the floor. Temp onboarding drops from a clipboard walkthrough to a QR scan. The CSV export plugs directly into inventory management systems.

Timestamp-level analysis

The Problem

Observers at four stations separated by miles radio sighting counts every 15 minutes. A coordinator types them into a spreadsheet. Numbers are frequently mis-heard. The 15-minute batching means the research lead never has a current picture of activity.

How SnapCount Solves It

Each station gets a set of named SnapCount counters — one per category being tracked. Observers tap their phone as they observe. The research lead watches a live dashboard from base. At day end, a detailed CSV export with timestamps provides data granularity that batched radio calls could never offer.

The Outcome

Radio miscommunication is eliminated. The research lead gets continuous live data instead of 15-minute batches. Timestamped exports enable time-of-day pattern analysis that was not previously possible with aggregated totals.
