Typical customer problem
We want to know how many people are actually visiting our stores — or a competitor's, or a potential new site — without deploying our own sensors or panel.
Typical customer type
Retailers, commercial real estate firms, CPG brands, and civic organisations evaluating physical foot traffic.
Things to evaluate
- Mobile device panel size and representativeness in the target market
- Validation methodology behind reported correlation with first-party visit counts
- Coverage for the specific site types being measured (retail, competitor sites, new site selection)
- Compare against category alternatives (Foursquare, SafeGraph, Unacast) for coverage fit
