Retail Myth-Buster Series

Myth: Counting Customers Manually is Accurate Reality: They’re Not and They’re Costing You Money.

Manual clickers, staff counts, or security guards to record customer traffic is accurate and better. Even the best-trained staff cannot:

Count multiple people entering at the same time.

Struggles to distinguish entry vs exit movements.

Loses focus during long, high-traffic hours.

Why AI People Counting Is Better. AI-powered systems give:

Accurate Counts upto 100%

Identify individuals even in crowded environments, without mixing up kids, groups, or shadows.

Gives details like dwell time, Total Footfall, Gender/Age and more.

Manual counting gives you numbers. AI people counting gives you true store performance.
