We truly believe this is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for someone looking to make their mark.BitRip in a NutshellBitRip is the world's first on-the-go QR code. A smart roll of tape that holds a continuously changing, scannable barcode. A user can rip a length of tape, stick it anywhere, scan it, and upload any type of digital media to it on the spot. It could be a voice memo, pictures, instruction manuals, video links, or any other type of dynamic information that needs to be tagged to a location. It's a digital version of a simple sticky note. BitRip is also a location tracker. When someone scans to access the information on the tape, they automatically punch GPS location information onto the tape. So now users can track the last known location of each digital label on a live map. Great for asset, equipment, and material tracking.The power behind BitRip is both its simplicity and versatility. We have proven enterprise-level customers in construction material tracking, facilities and maintenance, tool and equipment accountability, construction checklists, moving and storage, personal ID, safety voice tags, home DIY, and many more.Check out our website, watch the videos, and learn more about us at www.bitrip.com The Opportunity Since you will be an early hire, you'll have the chance to make big decisions and shape company culture.
