? Idea/Solution

We will be creating a POS software which will be a web app, a desktop app that runs on windows, macOS and linux, an android app, and an IOS app, all of these with the same code base using flutter and is supported by a variety of cloud services.

Feature Ideas

Authorization- A robust rolebased access control
A smooth and instructive onboarding – A new user will get a basic instructions on how the app works with the highlights of the application.
The invoice generation form progress will be saved in cloud in real time so that if the pos device user has to switch to some other device or to some other user the details will be stored.
We will provide sales analytics which will be powered by AI to give out richer results which will help in optimizing sales also suggesting the user choices.
improve the user experience of the software and making the software intuitive and allowing frictionless sales
integrate Customer feedback into POS using Whatsapp and twillo – API and also will analyse the feedback in realtime and will suggest the Mi team regrading the customer expectation.
Completely Responsive website/app so that sales can happen on the move.
Real time inventory management with innovative UI.
Allowing multiple ways for payments and to include credit based setup to buy products.
