What is Elementh?
All retails businesses need to have control over their inventory. This means:
- How many products?
- When are the products arriving?
- What is the product quality?
- What is the product history/path?
Many businesses suffer from a lack of control over their products. This means that they lose valuable time and resources dealing with logistics issues instead of dealing with their bread and butter - sales.
This is where the Elementh platform comes in. Elementh is a complete ecosystem, with it's own programming language, that allows retailers to build applications that track their products as well as purchase goods via the power of smart contracts.
This is not just an ecommerce platform. It is an entire infrastructure with a turing-complete programming language that can be accessed by small and large businesses to optimize their operations, such as logistic, tracking the movements of goods, product data quality, authenticity checking, store design tools, etc.
Elementh Major Innovations
At the root of the Elementh system lies the qualitative product data and system of goods. Stores, service provides, distributors and manufacturers can store their product data in a special format on the Elementh blockchain. Other businesses can use the platform to access this exact data and make product orders directly through DAPPs made on top of the platform. The payment is made once the products arrive to the purchaser along with the ownership of the product. Using the Elementh platform everyone can write smart contracts to handle payment and ensure delivery of orders.
Elementh Benefits
Since each individual product has it's own unique ID and data, the benefits of blockchain technology apply to all products on the platform. This can prevent issues such as counterfeits, which are rampant in the brand-name industry, with stores selling fakes that even they themselves might not be aware of. With the Elementh system of goods, even if the retailer is purchasing from a reseller, they can check the unique ID to ensure the originality of the item along with the full path made by the product from manufacturer to reseller and finally to the retailer.
Since distributors and stores are making transactions through the smart contracts, risks of missed orders or charges for items that never arrived are significantly reduced, saving time and money.
Dapps
Elementh will have its own built-in programming language which will allow developers to create DAPPs on top of the platform. This power is the very core of the platform. It will mean that Elementh will be further enhanced as adoption increases and companies want to expand their operations on the Elementh platform.
Elementh for e-commerce is the same as Ethereum for tokenization!
Elementh is a full tool set for developers. It will give developers the ability to make apps that work with the decentralized inventory of items. The Elementh system of goods and perfect product data are building blocks, on top of which various layers can be implemented to use that data.
The number of potential application that can be built on the Elementh platform are endless. Using the built-in programming language programmers could access tools that will allow them to use:
- Decentralized marketplaces
- Product Tracking
- Seller/Buyer Scoring
- Finding the Lowest Prices
- Product Availability
- Product Locations
