The Jolt Advantage, Cloud-Based and Real-Time Accuracy
Jolt robustly addresses data accuracy and compliance, meeting USDA/FDA requirements with features specifically designed for grocery needs. While other systems offer variable data printing (product names, barcodes, pricing, weights) and can include QR codes, nutri-facts, or cooking instructions, Jolt emphasizes automated data ingestion and its powerful no-code template builder with conditional logic. This allows for sophisticated, custom label designs incorporating graphics, fonts, and taglines (similar to the “Labeler’s” marketing focus) but crucially ensures accuracy through features like automatic FDA-compliant nutrition rounding and the dynamic display of critical attributes (allergens, EBT, Dietitian’s Choice icons) based on synced product data, reducing manual setup and compliance risks associated with static databases.
Streamlining the entire labeling workflow is central to Jolt’s value proposition. Beyond basic label finding and printing, Jolt incorporates features like batch printing with smart job routing for high-volume efficiency (addressing bakery/deli needs), direct integration with digital scales for accurate variable weight labeling, and wireless printing capabilities. This comprehensive approach minimizes manual steps, reduces errors, and saves significant labor compared to simpler print-station solutions. Jolt also explicitly supports Shelf Talker creation within its system (similar to Lone Peak’s offering), integrating it into the overall grocery signage workflow managed through the Jolt platform.
Regarding label output and flexibility, Jolt’s system is designed to work with various standard thermal label printers (direct thermal and thermal transfer) and supports diverse label sizes and types required in grocery environments.
