Annual U.S. retail shrink — with most stores unable to identify root cause by SKU, zone, or time of day.
Your store floor has been flying blind. StockOS gives it visibility.
StockOS is a mesh network of hubs and merchandise tags that gives national retailers real-time, SKU-level visibility across the sales floor, backroom, fitting rooms, and beyond — the same data layer e-commerce has had for 20 years, finally built for physical stores.
Physical retail is the only commerce channel still running without real-time inventory data.
E-commerce has had perfect item-level visibility since the early 2000s. In physical retail, that data has never existed at scale — leaving operations, merchandising, and asset protection teams making decisions based on cycle counts, surveillance footage, and guesswork.
20–30% of in-store inventory sits in the backroom at any given time. Most stores have no real-time visibility into what's there or how long it's been there.
Fitting rooms are among the highest-shrink zones in apparel retail — and the lowest-monitored for item-level activity.
When shrink is discovered, most retailers can't answer: which SKUs, which shift, which zone, which exit. Cameras show people — not items.
Three components. One complete picture of your store floor.
StockOS is purpose-built for physical retail deployment. The system installs in hours without construction or IT dependencies, and uses machine learning to automatically map your store's zones — so movement, dwell, and incident data are always spatially accurate.
StockOS Tag
Small BLE tags attach to merchandise. Battery-powered, small form factor, attaches to apparel, accessories, or any high-value item.
StockOS Hub
Patented mesh network hubs mount discreetly around the store in hours. ML auto-maps your store zones continuously.
StockOS Dashboard
Real-time, zone-aware data surfaced across Operations, Merchandising, and Asset Protection views.

StockOS Tag
Small BLE tags attach to merchandise — apparel, accessories, or any high-value item. Tags report location continuously as merchandise moves between the floor, backroom, and fitting rooms.
StockOS Tag GPS
For highest-shrink SKUs, GPS-enabled tags extend visibility outside the store. Know exactly where recovered merchandise went after it left the building.
Know exactly what's on the floor vs. stuck in the backroom
Understand how shoppers actually interact with your merchandise
Get forensic data on every shrink incident — by SKU, zone, and time
Track every incident from detection to resolution in one workflow
Purpose-built for the store floor. Not repurposed from something else.
Most retailers have tried to solve inventory visibility with tools that weren't designed for it. Here's how StockOS compares:
| Feature | StockOS | Traditional RFID | LP Cameras | EAS / EPC |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Real-time item location in-store | ✓ | — | ✗ | ✗ |
| Backroom + fitting room coverage | ✓ | — | ✗ | ✗ |
| No fixed reader infrastructure needed | ✓ | ✗ | — | ✗ |
| ML-based auto zone mapping | ✓ | ✗ | ✗ | ✗ |
| GPS recovery outside the store | ✓ | ✗ | ✗ | ✗ |
| Deploys in hours, no construction | ✓ | ✗ | — | — |
| Merchandising intelligence | ✓ | ✗ | — | ✗ |
| SKU-level incident forensics | ✓ | — | ✗ | ✗ |
Built for the teams that own store performance — and are accountable when it slips.
Operations
You're accountable for stock availability on the floor, but you're working from cycle counts and gut feel. StockOS tells you exactly what's on the floor, what's stuck in the backroom, and how long it's been there — updated continuously, not once a shift.
Merchandising
You know what sells. You don't know how shoppers interact with product before they decide not to buy. StockOS surfaces try-on rates, handling frequency, zone dwell, and displacement patterns — data to inform placement, adjacency, and assortment decisions.
Asset Protection
You can see people on camera. You can't see which SKU walked out and when. StockOS gives you forensic item-level data: which items, which zones, which time windows, which exit — so investigations start with facts, not footage.
Active pilots. Real stores. Real data.
StockOS is currently running active pilots with national retail operators across apparel and specialty retail. Our patented mesh network technology has been developed and validated over multiple years of in-store testing.
If you're evaluating new approaches to inventory visibility or shrink reduction, we'd welcome a conversation while pilot capacity is available.
