Inventory at
hallway speed.

TagSweep is a camera-first device inventory app for K-12 technology coordinators — scan asset tags fast where the devices actually are, then export clean into whatever system your district mandates.

Point the camera at a cart and keep going. Tag after tag, no tapping between scans. When you're done, you have a list you can hand to DeviceHub, Incident IQ, Destiny, or Google Admin without cleaning it up first.

The Problem

Every TPC keeps a
spreadsheet on the side.

Not because anyone wants to. Because the district's system was built for a desk, and the devices are on a cart in a hallway.

You're standing in front of thirty Chromebooks with a phone in one hand. The official system needs a login, three page loads, and a form per device — assuming the Wi-Fi in that wing is cooperating. So you do what everyone does: you write the tags down, or you scan them into a note, or you type them into a spreadsheet on your laptop that evening. Then you re-enter all of it into the system that actually counts.

The spreadsheet isn't the problem. The double entry is. And so is the cleanup — the tags that came out wrong, the serial that got typed as a model number, the column order that doesn't match what the importer expects.

TagSweep is the step in between. Fast capture where the devices are, clean export into wherever they have to end up. It doesn't replace your district's system — it feeds it.

Built by a New York City public school teacher and technology point of contact who does this job.

How It Works

Scan the cart.
Hand them out. Export.

Step 01
📷
Scan a cart

Open the camera and sweep down the cart. TagSweep scans continuously — barcode after barcode, without tapping between devices. Tags that print badly or aren't barcoded at all get read as text instead. A cart of thirty takes about as long as it takes to walk past it.

Step 02
🎒
Hand devices out by roster

Import a class roster and TagSweep walks you through deployment one student at a time: scan the tag, assign it, next. September's handout stops being a clipboard-and-highlighter job, and you end the period with an assignment record instead of a pile of paper to type up.

Step 03
📤
Export to your district's system

Choose your columns, order them the way the importer wants, and export a CSV. TagSweep doesn't care which platform your district picked — it produces a clean file that DeviceHub, Incident IQ, Destiny, Google Admin, or a plain spreadsheet will take without a fight.

Features

Everything the job needs.
Nothing it doesn't.

📷
Continuous scanning

Hold the camera up and keep moving. TagSweep reads one tag after another without a tap in between, so a full cart is a single pass rather than thirty separate interactions.

🔤
Text recognition, not just barcodes

Half the tags in any building are scuffed, reprinted, or never had a barcode. TagSweep reads printed asset tags and serials as text too, so the awkward ones don't fall back to typing.

🖼️
Photo import

Already have photos of a shelf, a box of tags, or a packing list? Import them and TagSweep pulls the tags out of the images — useful for devices that were inventoried by whoever happened to be in the room.

📥
CSV import for devices and rosters

Bring in an existing device list so scanning matches against what you already have, and bring in class rosters so deployment has names to assign to. Both come in as plain CSV — no integration to set up.

🎒
Roster-driven deployment loop

Built for the first week of school. Pick a class, work down the roster, scan and assign without leaving the screen. You finish the period with a record of which device went to which student.

🕐
Device history

Every device keeps its own timeline — when it was scanned, where it was, who it went to, and what changed. When a device turns up in a drawer in March, you can see the last time anyone accounted for it.

⚙️
Configurable CSV export

Pick which fields go out and in what order, so the file matches the importer your district uses instead of the other way around. Set it up once and every future export lands the same way.

🔎
Search and filtering

Find a tag, a student, a room, or a status without scrolling. Filter down to what's unassigned, what's missing, or what you touched today — then export just that slice.

Privacy

Nothing leaves
your iPhone.

TagSweep stores everything on your device. No account, no cloud, no server, no analytics — Fogarty Holdings never receives your data, because there is nowhere for it to go.

🔒

Written to be forwarded to your principal.

The camera is used only for on-device barcode and text recognition — no image is ever uploaded. Student names you enter stay on the device, and TagSweep does not import or store student ID numbers or student email addresses; those are stripped on import.

Because no data is transmitted to us, there is nothing for us to disclose, sell, or breach. The privacy policy says all of this in plain language, with a contact address for procurement questions.

FAQ

Common questions.

Does this replace DeviceHub or Incident IQ?

No. TagSweep is the capture step in front of whatever your district already mandates. You scan in the hallway and export a clean CSV that your system imports — the system of record stays the system of record.

What if a tag has no barcode?

TagSweep reads printed text as well as barcodes, so worn, reprinted, and hand-labeled tags still scan. If a tag is genuinely unreadable, you can enter it by hand and keep moving.

Can I bring in the list I already have?

Yes — import a CSV of your existing devices and TagSweep matches scans against it. Class rosters import the same way, which is what makes the deployment loop work.

Do I need internet in the building?

No. Scanning, matching, deployment, history, and export all happen on the device. Hallway Wi-Fi being bad is one of the reasons the app works this way.

What about student data?

Student names you enter never leave your device, and student ID numbers and student email addresses are stripped on import — TagSweep does not store them at all. Nothing is transmitted to Fogarty Holdings.

Can my district buy it centrally?

TagSweep is a $29.99 one-time in-app purchase through the App Store, not a per-seat district contract. Coordinators who expense it can, and those who don't can work the free tier a cart at a time.

What counts toward the 100-device free limit?

Devices in your inventory. A hundred is enough to work several carts or a small school end to end before deciding whether the unlimited unlock is worth it.

Is there a subscription?

No. Free up to 100 devices, and a single $29.99 unlock for unlimited. There is no renewal and no recurring charge of any kind.
