SiteZeus

SiteZeus is a Tampa based Artificial Intelligence company that builds cloud-based service to facilitate real estate site selection process. The company uses proprietary machine learning framework, predictive analysis, and sales forecasting models to identify the best geographic location for brands and companies to expand, grow or close down. The service analyzes site attributes and locational characteristics from leading data sources to help real estate brokers and site consultants to make data-driven decision for site selection.

SiteZeus gathers information from data sources that affect the quality of a real estate site. The service can factor data like population movement, industry performance index, traffic volumes, industry sales index, points of interest, and household demographics of the area to supplement the site selection process. The machine learning system uses datasets from other data companies which SiteZeus collaborates as “The Olympus Data Exchange.” Environics provides household demographics data, traffic volumes are sourced from Inrix, and Black Box Intelligence provides data for restaurant performance index. A user can subscribe to data based on their requirement, and the data is harmoniously analyzed by A.I. to produce an analytical model of the location.

SiteZeus not only uses historical data and machine learning but also allows user inputs for unique factors to add more market insights. A.I. can not predict construction project by competition in the near future but human research can. By use of input from brokers and analysts, the system can provide better sales forecast at a location.

Savvy is a starter platform geared towards emerging brands, brokers and developers to query and visualize location-based data backed with artificial intelligence and machine learning. On this platform clients can co-relate data from The Olympus Data Exchange to perform analysis about customer demographic, competition, and proximity to create reports to extract insights. Users can remodel the data with additional sources and attributes to analyze different scenarios.

Synergy is a platform targeted towards established retailers, convenience stores, restaurant, healthcare facilities, and private equity firms to find the best location to invest. Synergy helps clients by using industry appropriate data pointers and providing actionable insights to make a clear decision for location selection.
