Project-S
A private inventory system for a small auction-resale operation. It turns a pile of auction receipts into a tracked, priced, shelved inventory — and follows each item through to resale.
What it does
Buying at liquidation auctions produces a lot of boxes and very little information. A receipt lists what you won and what you paid; it doesn't tell you what any of it is worth, whether it is worth keeping, or where you put it. Project-S closes that gap.
- Import the receipt Purchase receipts are pulled in from the auction house and become inventory records automatically, rather than being retyped.
- Enrich each item Every item is matched against public retail listings to attach a product title, category, current retail price, rating, and photographs — so an unlabelled box becomes a known product with a known market value.
- Decide keep or return Newly arrived items land in a triage queue. Anything damaged or not worth reselling is marked for return, with the return deadline tracked so the window is not missed.
- Shelve it Items are assigned to a named shelf, bin, or pallet, using a barcode scanner for speed, and printed labels so anything can be found again physically.
- List and sell Condition, cost, and asking price are recorded per item, and the system reports what is still unlisted, what capital is tied up, and which items are likely to sell fastest.
Who it is for
Project-S is used by the resale business that built it, together with a small number of people who work on that inventory day to day. It is not a public product, there is no sign-up, and there is nothing to buy.
Accounts exist only when the owner explicitly grants access to a specific Google address. Each person is given access to only the parts of the system their work requires — someone receiving and shelving stock, for example, does not get access to purchasing or financial reporting.
Signing in
Sign-in uses your Google Account. The app asks for two pieces of information and nothing else: your email address, which is your identity and how access is granted, and your name and profile picture, so it is clear who is signed in.
It cannot read your Gmail, Drive, Sheets, contacts, calendar, or photos. It does not request access to any of them. Nothing is sold, shared, or used for advertising, and the app contains no third-party analytics or tracking.
The privacy policy sets out exactly what is stored, for how long, and how to have it deleted.
Signing in requires an invitation. If you have not been granted access, the sign-in will be declined.
