Ariadne Analytics
Ariadne Analytics is the visitor analytics dashboard for any physical space. It shows live counts, dwell time per zone, polygon heatmaps, queue-time alerts, and conversion paths. Plug in Hybrid Fusion sensors for a clean install, or feed the dashboard from existing Wi-Fi access points and sensors via EaseLink. Nothing personally identifying leaves the device.
What it shows · 1 of 3
Every entry, exit, and zone of the venue is counted live. Operations teams see how many people are inside each zone at any second, plus historical patterns over the day, week, and season.
What it shows · 2 of 3
The dashboard turns identifier-free journeys into maps. See which zones visitors enter together, where they linger, and which routes they take through the venue.
Our edge
Identifier-free paths from entrance to exit. Reveals natural traffic flow, alternative routes, bottlenecks.
Custom polygon zones, drawn over the floor plan. Heatmap density per polygon, dwell distribution per polygon, conversion per polygon.
Cross-zone movement. Which zones feed which, in what proportion. Cross-sell and merchandising signal.
What it shows · 3 of 3
The dashboard correlates visit data with the venue's outcomes: sales, queue length, marketing-campaign reach, peer benchmarks.
Conversion
Foot-traffic vs transactions. Storefront pull-in, enter-to-purchase, with daypart and campaign attribution.
Queue
Real-time queue length per checkpoint. Staff-intervention thresholds. Historical queue patterns for staffing plans.
Benchmark
Compare a venue's metrics against the Ariadne network's peer averages. Anonymised, opted-in benchmarks per industry.
Same app, more dashboards
These metrics power other dashboards in the same Ariadne app. Built on the same Hybrid Fusion data, opened from the same login.
Align staff levels with predicted footfall. Hour-by-hour shift planning against the same visitor data.
See staff scheduling
Trigger location-based campaigns from the same anonymised journey data. Attribution back to dwell time.

The dashboard is the visible end of Hybrid Fusion, Ariadne's patented method for measuring people in any physical space. Patented phone signal sensing handles the inside-the-venue journey. Time-of-Flight depth sensing handles entries and exits. Both run on a single edge device. The fused, identifier-free stream feeds the dashboard in real time.
How Hybrid Fusion worksAlready running Wi-Fi access points from Aruba, Cisco, Sophos, Ruckus, or TP-Link? EaseLink feeds the dashboard from existing infrastructure. No new sensors.

Outcomes
Real outcomes from real venues. Cards rotate as the customer wall rotates.
We recorded the ROI already in the first month with a 40% increase in product revenue!
When they said: We are the Google Analytics of the physical world, they were not kidding!
A truly plug-n-play solution! I did the installation myself!.
Privacy by architecture
Ariadne Analytics never receives video, faces, or device identifiers. The sensor never captures them in the first place. Counts and paths leave the device identifier-free. Identifiers are stored only when a visitor explicitly opts in, for example through a guest Wi-Fi login. The dashboard's data layer is hosted on the customer's choice of cloud (Azure, AWS, or GCP), with EU data residency available where procurement requires it. The architecture sits structurally outside Annex III high-risk categories of the EU AI Act because no biometric data is captured or processed. GDPR-native by design (Article 25).

No cameras
No video, no still frames, no facial-recognition pipeline.
No PII by default
Counts and paths are identifier-free. Identifiers exist only on visitor opt-in.
Hosting on your terms

Where the data goes next
The dashboard is the read surface. Identifier-free metric streams also push to the systems the venue already runs. POS reconciliation feeds conversion. Workforce platforms feed staff scheduling. BI tools consume the underlying tables. CRM systems take aggregated visit signals for retargeting.
Logos read from the CMS, so this card stays current as new integrations ship.
REST API for live metrics. Scheduled CSV and Parquet exports for warehouses. SSO via the customer's existing identity provider.
FAQ
Quick answers on what the dashboard shows and how it integrates.
Ariadne Analytics is the visitor analytics dashboard for any physical space. It shows live counts, dwell time per zone, polygon heatmaps, queue-time alerts, and conversion paths. Data feeds in either from new Hybrid Fusion sensors at the venue, or from existing Wi-Fi access points and sensors via EaseLink. Nothing personally identifying leaves the device.
Counts and occupancy per zone, dwell time, visitor trajectories, area-to-area transitions, polygon heatmaps, conversion paths, queue length and queue-time alerts, and benchmarks against the Ariadne network's peer averages. All updated in real time.
The dashboard is the read surface; metric streams also push to existing systems through pre-built connectors (the current integration list lives at /platform/integrations/), a REST API for live metrics, and scheduled CSV or Parquet exports for warehouses. SSO via the customer's existing identity provider.
Yes. Counts and queue-time metrics update within seconds of detection. Heatmap and trajectory views render against live aggregations. Historical views compare any rolling window against same-period baselines.
Yes. Operations teams draw polygons over the venue floor plan in the dashboard. Each polygon gets dwell distribution, occupancy over time, conversion contribution, and cross-polygon transitions. Polygons can be edited at any time without re-deploying sensors.
The dashboard's data layer is hosted on the customer's choice of cloud (Azure, AWS, or GCP), with EU data residency available for venues that require it. It is GDPR-native by design (Article 25 privacy-by-design) because the underlying Hybrid Fusion sensors do not capture biometric data and do not collect MAC addresses or device IDs by default. The architecture sits structurally outside Annex III high-risk categories of the EU AI Act.
