See It, Understand It, Improve It

Layout Optimizer

ARIA reads how shoppers actually move through your store, noting what they stop at, what they pick up, and what they pass by, then turns that into specific, evidence-backed layout recommendations, each with a projected impact. Compare options side by side, export a branded report, and act on it through your own merchandising process.

Universal Connectivity

ARIA connects to the systems you already run, including cameras, sensors, point-of-sale, inventory systems, and even older legacy infrastructure, and brings data into one clean, anonymized view. No rip-and-replace required.

Privacy by Design

Signals ARIA processes are anonymized before they are analyzed. ARIA never identifies individual shoppers, only patterns, trends, and behaviors at the aggregate level.

Proof and Prediction

Verified Results

Did that layout change actually work? Did that promotion move the needle? ARIA's measurement engine uses real holdout comparisons to show you verified impact, not estimates dressed up as facts. Events ties back to the ultimate KPI at the point of sale and the instance of truth: inventory and the ERP

Smarter, Predictive Recommendations

Across the platform, ARIA's recommendations get sharper, forecasting demand, projecting the impact of a change before you make it, and giving new stores a credible starting point from day one.

Inventory Intelligence

Real-time shelf awareness that spots gaps and misplaced items, predicts stockouts before they happen, and helps your team act before a sale is lost, continuously working alongside your own inventory system as the source of truth.

Smarter Assortment

See what's working, what isn't, and what a change in your product lineup would likely do, before you commit to it.

In-Store Media & Marketing

Trigger the right offer at the right moment, run brand and retailer campaigns, and turn your store's screens and displays into a new revenue opportunity, all backed by measurable results. Turn your in-store screens into a net-revenue line, not just a cost center.

##v.horizonON THE HORIZON

The Fully Connected Store

Workforce Planning

Staffing schedules built around predicted traffic and demand, so your team is in the right place at the right time.

Safety and Security

Ability to scan, in real time, for safety and security hazards that may cause negative customer and staff experiences.

Campaigns, Rewards & Associate Tools

A single place to build offers and rewards, target them anonymously, and arm your team with the tools to deliver on the floor.

Publish Everywhere, Instantly

Update pricing, promotions, and content once, and have it appear consistently across displays, shelf labels, mobile, and more.

Generative & Adaptive Layouts

As more stores run on ARIA, the platform learns from the network, giving new stores a strong starting layout from day one, and helping every store adapt over time to seasons, promotions, and even ambient conditions like lighting and music.

Market & Sector Intelligence

Recurring insights and benchmarks that help retailers and brands understand not just their own store, but the broader market around them.

Ready for the Agent Economy

As AI shopping assistants become part of how people shop, ARIA will make it possible for a retailer's inventory and offers to become discoverable and transactable by outside AI shopping agents

Roadmap items are under active development and may evolve. Features will roll out progressively as they become available.
