Your subscription includes the amount of users at the price as advertised on our website on a subscription basis. These amounts and prices could be changed from time to time.

 After scanning a QR code that is generated from The Clever Label Software, it will provide you with access to information about the product, including the product history, materials, and rehoming capability. You will need to subscribe so you can confidentially chat with the item’s owner via the Software to arrange its safe return. As part of the registration you can design, generate, and assign to your tangible assets a unique QR code The app also includes bulk scanning functionality for Organisations that deal with high volumes of lost property to efficiently communicate with multiple owners of found items at once. You can use the bulk “lost and found” capability whereby you can scan multiple items that have The Clever Label and confidentially communicate with their owners with one message.
