Company Summary

Our product is a data repository about how consumers use their city. Our clients are VPs of Marketing/Planning for retailers, commercial real estate, and wholesalers. Our data subscriptions support marketing decisions at the scale of a day (what to put on sale), month (what to stock), and years (where to site my new store). We answer questions like: Who is driving by your store and NOT coming in? How many make $80k+? Are they going shopping?
