Problem
Brick-and-mortar retailers often lack comprehensive, real-time insights into customer behavior within their stores. This makes it difficult to optimize store layouts, marketing campaigns, staffing levels, and tenant mix to improve customer engagement and sales. Traditional methods of collecting this data are often manual, time-consuming, and lack the granularity needed for effective decision-making.
Solution
Dayta's Cyclops is a cloud-based AI solution that analyzes video feeds from existing in-store cameras to provide real-time shopper analytics. The platform processes over 150,000 videos daily, extracting data on visitor demographics, engagement levels, dwell times, and traffic patterns. This data is then used to generate actionable insights for marketing, operations, and strategy/leasing teams, enabling them to make data-driven decisions to enhance the customer experience and improve operational efficiency. The AI algorithm is trained on real-world retail data, ensuring high accuracy in identifying and interpreting shopper behavior.
