For antique malls & the people who fill them

Write it once. Scan it forever.

Most antique malls still run on handwritten tags that someone retypes into a spreadsheet. It is slow, full of typos, and tells the owner almost nothing. Tabella puts a scannable tag on every item, so a sale is one beep, and the booth, the mall and the books all agree.

The problem

A tag is a tessera: a small token that stands for something.

The Romans used a tessera as a ticket, a tally and a mark of identity, and it is also a single tile in a mosaic. That is what a tag should be: one small, reliable piece that fits into the whole picture. Today it is ink on card, and the picture gets rebuilt by hand.

I

Handwritten

Booth, item and price scrawled on paper, then read back by a clerk who has seen ten thousand of them.

II

Retyped

Every sale is typed into a spreadsheet or software. Slow lines, wrong prices, sales credited to the wrong booth.

III

Unseen

The data exists but nobody learns from it: which booths are hot, which are dead, what shoppers want.

Two products, one system

Built for both sides of the booth.

An antiquer prints tags. The mall scans them. Because they speak the same language, nothing is typed twice.

  • Foot-traffic heat map and hot-vendor alerts
  • Slow and stale booth reports, with space reclaimed
  • A shared loyalty punch card, funded from commission
  • A catalog, shopper wish lists and sold-price comps
How it works

Four steps, no retyping.

1

Photograph

The antiquer snaps a photo. Tabella drafts the title, description and category, and suggests a rarity badge.

2

Tag

Print a sheet of QR tags with booth, item number, price and badge. Stick them on.

3

Scan

At the register, one beep rings the item, the price and the booth. A shopper's loyalty card earns a punch.

4

Know

Vendors get their balance and a short report. The mall sees traffic, hot booths and slow ones, and shoppers' wants.

Where we are

Early, and built with a real booth.

Tabella started at a real flea-market booth, because its makers were tired of tagging by hand. The tools work and are being tested on live inventory. Malls and booth owners in the first group will shape what is built next. We are not claiming customers we do not have yet.
