Questions

Do we need special scanners?

The plan is that you won't. W? is designed to work with ordinary keyboard-wedge handheld scanners, which work with any web page, and with a phone camera as a fallback. This is the design, not yet a finished feature.

Can it exchange files with our customers?

It's designed to work with EDIFACT, X12, SFTP and CSV. Which of these arrive in the first release is still being decided.

When will W? be available?

W? is in development and not on sale yet. W? on thing.team has the latest.
