Waffle for Retail & Hospitality

Overview:

In showrooms, spas, business centers and gyms, Waffle helps teams understand how space usage ties to customer behavior and operational decisions.

Top use cases:

• Product or display engagement: Install Waffle in front of showroom displays or furniture sets to identify what draws attention and lingering. Combine with sales or promotion data to optimize layout strategies.
• Hotel amenity monitoring: Place Waffle in gyms (near treadmills, bikes, etc.) or business centers to monitor usage and show availability. Great for elevating the guest experience.
• Staffing optimization: Use occupancy data to plan staffing based on how space is actually used. Combine trends with promotions, weather or holidays for even smarter scheduling.
• Cleaning efficiency: Stop cleaning spotless spaces. Waffle lets you adopt occupancy-based cleaning-target what was used, skip what wasn’t.
   

Things to note:

• Capped counts (1/2/3+) show you which spaces are popular, when, and by how much.
• Waffle helps optimize resource use (like staffing and cleaning).
• For occupancy tracking in larger spaces, consider the Entry Sensor.
   

Waffle benefits:

• Plug and play: Install in minutes—no ceiling mounts or wires required.
• Flexible: Move it from one area to another to test, optimize, and learn.
• Real-time & historical: See what’s happening now, or dig into usage over days, weeks, or months.
