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.

As a result, the study accounts for revenue potential from both the local population and passing traffic. The Bankable Feasibility Study also considers a broader range of factors that can affect restaurant performance, including the size of the premises, the date of the most recent renovation, delivery availability, and other location-specific inputs. Our expert analysts review and refine the forecast. The completed study is delivered within two weeks for $1,500 and includes direct support.

Competitors and nearby amenities - parking, transit, and more - are points-of-interest data powered by Mapbox, continuously updated using multiple commercial, governmental, and community data sources.
