Here's how we built it, and why you can trust it.

Every number on this page is real, current data for the exact trade area around your address. Our analysis combines official government datasets, open-source geographic information, and Ticon's proprietary traffic intelligence to provide a comprehensive view of each location and its surrounding market.

We've been in site selection analytics since 2016, helping small businesses and large chains to select new locations and optimize existing stores through ticon.co.

In 10 years we've built deep expertise reading traffic and demographic data to judge a location before you commit to it.

Map AI is where we opened that engine to the public — the same traffic data, demographics, and site-selection judgment, turned into an instant estimate for any address.
