AssetTiger alternative
Your free plan turned into a trial.
metItem's free plan covers 100 items, with no countdown and no credit card. Track tools and equipment with photos and barcodes, across a separate inventory for every truck, site, and store — on web, iOS, and Android, with offline on mobile.
100 items is the free ceiling, not a trial length. Tracking more? The paid plans start at 500.
What you get instead
Three things worth checking before you move your list anywhere.
A free plan, not a countdown
100 items, free, with no expiry date and no credit card. Nothing switches off after 30 days and nothing goes read-only. If metItem is useful at item 4, it is still useful at item 99 — and you only pay when you outgrow it.
Real apps that work with no signal
Native iOS and Android apps — not a website in a phone browser. Scan, add, and check items out in a basement, a steel building, or a site with no bars, and everything syncs the moment you are back online.
A separate inventory for every place
Van 3, Main Warehouse, Storeroom — each one its own inventory, on every plan including free, with no cap on how many you create. Switch between them in a tap instead of filtering one enormous list.
Bring your list with you
Export what you already have to a spreadsheet, then import it. Your existing asset tags and barcodes keep working — metItem scans the codes you already printed. Everything below is on the free plan; paid plans add printed QR & barcode label sheets, emailed alerts, teammates, and room for more items.
- Barcode & QR scanning from your phone
- Check items out to a person or a truck
- A photo on every item
- Low-stock alerts in the app
- Nested folders to organize anything
- Tags and a custom field
- Reports: item flow and activity history
- Import your existing list from a spreadsheet
- Works offline on iOS and Android
- As many separate inventories as you want
Is metItem right for you?
AssetTiger is capable software with a long track record, and plan terms change on every product — including ours — so check their current pricing yourself rather than taking our word for it. metItem is built for teams who want a free tier with no expiry, apps that keep working with no signal, and a separate inventory for every place they keep things. If you track more than a hundred items, start on the free plan anyway — it is the fastest way to find out whether the workflow fits before anyone pays for anything.
