Shoppers love it! Their overall customer experience, which increases loyalty, is improved by making it easy to access information, review details, and make purchasing decisions. AVA Retail helps retailers increase sales and profits by improving the effectiveness of their product placements, lower marketing costs, improve trial rates, increase customer acquisition, and lift shopper conversions.
AVA retail is changing the way retailers do business through a data driven approach. Data is collected through sensors in retail stores. Sensors that track every activity of every shopper - whether or not they carry phones.
Our ingenuity is in using variety of sensors: optical, infrared, bluetooth, NFC, directional, 3D, and gyroscopic sensors. These sensors are smart and connected (internet of things), and our algorithms deduce truth in the moment and digitize it - instead of storing for later processing, which can cause privacy and security concerns.
AVA retail has built a digital nervous system platform that uses IoT sensors to collect data, uses algorithms on the edge to perform sensor fusion to sense the truth in real-world, and uses the Azure IoT cloud for state-of-the-art, proprietary deep learning techniques applied to the sensor data. This AI platform powers AVA retail’s line of products, from analytics through the most advanced in-store experience, cashierless checkout that we call AVA SmoothShop.

AVA retail brings true parity to physical retailers to what the top e-tailers can do, making them competitive again. Why can’t a retailer track every shopper as they travel through the store and interact with products? Why can’t they track dwell time and paths? Why can’t they deliver insights and predictions, in real time and over time?
The answer is, with AVA retail they can. AVA retail leverages IoT sensors to digitally transform physical retail locations, creating digital footprints of in-store shoppers, store associates and store inventory that was not available before. AVA retail then converts this data into insights through their Analytics dashboard, empowering retailers and CPG companies to create better shopper experiences, better staffing efficiency, and higher sales conversion.
This started out as a platform for shopper analytics, then grew to encompass compelling shopper experiences such as Smart Shelves and customized offers. And now this same platform is expanded to drive the cashierless checkout solution, AVA SmoothShop.
