https://www.tafuta.co.uk What does tafuta mean in Swahili? ; rake noun, verb ; tafuta, reki, -somba ; looking-for Based on an award winning idea by our Co-founder on the John Lewis accelerator (JLAB) to remotely monitor every Waitrose for footfall with no hardware back in 2017. Written from scratch at the beginning of the pandemic to primarily tell the co-founders and their friends how busy the local shops were so they could go and buy a sandwich when they were empty and less likely to get infected, the software soon got adopted by local councils and several retailers. A software only solution requiring no hardware installation or cameras to remotely give accurate footfall numbers for any world wide location. Our data lake is self generated using our unique crawling algorithm from data sourced from businesses that already surface data to Google,Apple and Facebook combined with data from partners such as Telefonica and MasterCard, calibrated in real-time. Entropy based clustering can remotely detect footfall in any location in realtime down to every 5 minutes and predict the next 24 hours footfall based on the previous 3 hours data. Unlike predictive analytics or algorithm regression based systems our software can also predict exogenous grey swan events. We are the only software only, no hardware required, solution to give real time footfall data anywhere on the globe.
