Counting with the camera: you always confirm
Photograph a bench, get a drafted count for the lot, and confirm the number before it ever reaches your list.
Counting a yard by hand is what makes availability lists go stale. The camera is there to speed that up: you photograph a block, and the app drafts a count for that lot from the photo.
A drafted count is a starting point, never the last word. It lands in a review queue for you to check. You confirm the number — adjust it, or accept it — and nothing touches your availability until you do.
Treat it as a fast first pass, not a replacement for your eye. You know your crop; the draft just saves you from starting every count from zero and re-typing numbers back at a desk.
The photo does double duty. It is a record of what you counted on that date, and it can become the crop photo your availability list carries on that line.
Drafting is metered by plan, and the meter only counts drafts that actually come back — a photo that cannot be read does not count against you. Your monthly allowance is shown on the Plan and billing screen.
The rule never changes: the app drafts, you confirm. A count you did not confirm never reaches a buyer.
