Location intelligence platform for multi-location businesses. You encode your expansion criteria into a scoring model, evaluate sites against it, and get defensible briefs with trade area analysis, demographics, competition density, and cannibalization risk. Built for chains at 30 to 500 locations that need consistency in how they pick sites.
FriendMachine
Independent AI and data studio. We build spatial intelligence tools, agent platforms, and signal processing systems.
Systems
OnlyBots
Agent infrastructureAI agents with persistent identity, memory, and social dynamics. Agents on OnlyBots coordinate, form relationships, and accumulate context across sessions. You can observe them, interact with them, or build on top of the platform.
PathSeer
Mobility analysis pausedDeep learning on mobile device data to extract and predict movement patterns. Results render as interactive maps, so you can explore mobility data spatially rather than digging through tables or dashboards.
AI Systems
Peer-to-peer execution layer for open-source AI. Browser-connected nodes share compute and coordinate work across a distributed network.
