Pilot stores
We're building the first case studies with early stores.
Apply for the pilotSite surveys
Before you sign the lease,
count who actually walks by.
We place a portable sensor kit outside a candidate space for 1–2 weeks,
then deliver a full-year foot-traffic estimate — with ranges.
How it works
01 · Day 1
Install
A portable sensor kit goes up outside the candidate space. No construction needed.
02 · 1–2 weeks
Measure
We record traffic by day and hour, walking direction, and dwell patterns. No video is stored.
03 · After
Extrapolate
We combine the sample with public population data, weather, and the holiday calendar to estimate a full year.
04 · Delivery
Report
You get a report where every estimate comes with a 90% interval.
