Fremont, CA – August 25, 2025 – Loadstar Sensors today announced the launch of iVMI, a groundbreaking inventory management solution that enables small businesses and VMI providers to view and manage inventory autonomously. 

With iVMI, businesses gain real-time visibility and control of their inventory across multiple locations through a single, easy-to-use portal. By combining smart digital scales with a powerful cloud platform, iVMI eliminates manual guesswork and ensures that stock levels are always accurate, up to date, and accessible from any device. You can choose to use smart scales or continue to count manually or do both. You can deploy iVMI on existing shelves and racks. 

"Companies lose millions every year due to inaccurate counts, stock-outs, and excess inventory," said Div Harish, CEO of Loadstar Sensors. "iVMI is designed to solve that. Whether it's bolts, pharmaceuticals, powders, or fluids in tanks, iVMI adapts to any item type and gives businesses the freedom to count manually, automate with smart scales, or do both. It's about flexibility, accuracy, and efficiency in one seamless system."

Whether you're tracking 50 items in one location or 50,000 items across multiple warehouses, iVMI scales with you and ensures nothing slips through the cracks
