The Problem

Site selection is broken.
The data exists. The tools don't.

A Starbucks opening a new location has a 30-person analytics team. A regional chain with 50 locations has one person with Excel.

They drive to sites, count cars in parking lots, pull Census data that's 4 years old, and buy $50K+ subscriptions they can barely afford.

The process takes weeks. The data is stale. The decisions are gut-feel.

The Solution

One score. Eight signals. 43 sources. Real-time.
