If Ricochet is on your shortlist, one question sorts the decision quickly: are you trying to run the store, or fix what comes across the buy counter? Tag to Rack is built for the second.
Ricochet is point-of-sale and consignment management software — it rings up sales, tracks inventory and consignor accounts, and handles the register side of the store. Tag to Rack works at the opposite end of the flow: the point of intake, before an item is ever in your system. It decides what's worth taking in, so what reaches your POS is already curated.
Intake is where consistency usually breaks — the same jacket gets described and priced differently depending on who's working. Tag to Rack applies your buying rules to every submission the same way: it drafts brand, size, condition, flaws, and a suggested price band from photos, each with a confidence indicator, and a manager approves or adjusts. The result is a clean, uniform intake that a POS can trust — regardless of shift or location. See reducing intake time and shrink.
You don't have to choose one or the other. Approved items leave Tag to Rack POS-ready — clean titles, descriptions, and a mapped CSV — so they drop into whatever system you use. If Ricochet (or another POS) already runs your register well, Tag to Rack simply feeds it better, pre-screened inventory.
If your gap is the register, reporting, and store operations, a POS in Ricochet's category is the right tool. If your gap is too much unscreened intake, inconsistent pricing, and a slow buy counter, that's exactly what Tag to Rack fixes — and it can sit in front of your POS. Not sure how the two halves fit?
