Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe?

I'm looking at using Shelf for my newly started IT-as-a-service startup - It has great features and functionality from what I can read. There are just a few tweaks that would make the tool much more flexible for my usecase. Because of your QR code tagging and many other features, you are a few simple features away from being able to make this tool a much more general purpose tool.

A project I have seperately from my startup is a vertical farming system platform, that allows small, modular and very affordable farms to be placed in the local areas of disenfranchised people - so like a "Job-in-a-box" for local communities. The QR and location tagging, asset management and the mobile functionality you all support is near a perfect match for that kind of logistical work - however it would require the ability to customize some of the names of the asset types, or otherwise white-label (maybe just upload a different logo + font + renaming of asset types)

I read that your platform was built on Supabase, and Supabase has a doc detailing multi-tenancy in a simpler way:

https://github.com/dikshantrajput/supabase-multi-tenancy or https://roughlywritten.substack.com/p/supabase-multi-tenancy-simple-and

Describe the solution you'd like

What I am missing a simple way to white-label the platform and a simple way to launch seperate workspaces (for each client) - This in combination with the white-labelling functionality would allow ANY service providers that work with physical assets of any sort to use this tool for many other uses than device asset management.

Additionally it would be interesting to understand if you are open to some kind of Managed Service Provider/Agency partnership that allows for a single fee to launch a templated variant of Shelf per customer at a single price, similar to how Glideapps.com have an agency plan (with the above functionality)

For me, I would use it as the foundation on which I would build my IT-as-a-service startup, as it seems modular enough and flexible enough to allow for adding additional asset types (software, meeting rooms etc.) but also while keeping a simple, modern interface.

I can easily see myself using the QR code functionality in individual dashboards/digital signage or "interactive" spaces to trigger workflows that will change the physical space.

Hope it makes sense, else I am happy to hop on a call.

Describe alternatives you've considered

All the existing no-code and low-code tooling is either licensed in a way that this is not feasible, or it locks core features (like Sign in with Google/Microsoft) at a tier where it's doesn't make sense commercially. Appsmith has custom domain locked away, Directus SSO and custom domain.

There are vertically integrated providers that will allow you to use their platforms as backends, but they dont support half the features you do, and mostly focus on the procurement aspect.
