Pump meter readings, captured by the camera
No more handwritten tally sheets and unreadable figures. The attendant aims the tablet at the totalizer: Indexa reads the meter, the attendant confirms and the time-stamped photo is the proof. Litres sold and the amount are worked out on their own.

A reading in three steps
The attendant aims at the meter
At the start and end of the shift, they aim at the nozzle's totalizer. Reading happens on the tablet, without network.
They confirm the figure
Indexa only suggests a value that comes back over several frames and matches the expected reading. The attendant confirms or corrects it.
The photo is kept
Date, time, station, nozzle and attendant name are stamped on the photo, which cannot be replaced afterwards.
The calculations, done for you
For every shift, Indexa works out the nozzle's output (closing reading minus opening reading), deducts the tank returns from pump tests, then applies the day's price for the product. You get the litres sold and the expected amount, pump by pump and attendant by attendant.
Totalizers from 5 to 9 digits, with or without decimals, are supported, including the meter rolling over zero. Each attendant opens and closes their shift with their PIN: every reading carries their name.
Anomalies flagged to the manager
A reading that does not follow
The opening reading does not match the closing reading of the previous shift on the same nozzle.
Meter rolled over zero
The output is worked out and the case is sent to the manager for confirmation.
Figure corrected after reading
The typed value differs from the one read by the camera: the shift is marked for review.
Missing photo
Depending on your setting, the photo is required, recommended or off.
Excessive tank returns
Tank returns exceed the nozzle's output.
Receipts beyond sales
Receipts handed to customers exceed the litres sold: a fake receipt shows up.
A tally sheet ready for your accountant
The tally sheet follows the paper layout: one line per nozzle and per shift, with opening and closing readings, output, tank returns, sales, price, amount and attendant, then totals by product and by attendant. It exports to PDF and Excel, by day, week or month.
Every evening, the end-of-day report gives you litres and amount by product, shifts to validate and anomalies, compared with the day before and the 7-day average. Meter reading is included in every plan, from Essential up.
Does reading work on every pump?
Indexa reads the digits shown by the totalizer. If reading fails (damaged display, sun glare), the attendant types the figure on the keypad: the entry is logged and the photo is still required according to your setting.
Is an internet connection needed during the reading?
No. Reading happens on the tablet; readings and photos are saved, encrypted, and sent as soon as the network is back.
Can an attendant cheat on the meter reading?
Every reading carries their name, the time-stamped photo cannot be replaced and any difference between the figure read and the figure typed is flagged to the manager. A later correction needs a reason and stays in the history.
What hardware do I need?
An Android or Apple tablet or phone with a camera. Nothing to install on the pumps.
