Exabel partners with Placer.ai to bring their industry-leading location analytics dataset to our alternative data platform. Placer’s geolocation and foot traffic dataset is now available to fundamental investors via the Exabel platform.
We’re thrilled to partner with Placer.ai and make location intelligence and foot traffic data available for investors. Placer.ai provides investors insight into company performance by leveraging foot traffic and visitation data across thousands of property and retail chains in the USA.
The geolocation dataset is delivered and updated daily to the Exabel platform, providing real-time insights to users with historical data back until 2017 for backtesting. The Exabel platform enhances investment teams’ access to insights from Placer.ai’s dataset by seamlessly integrating it with fundamental data. This integration allows investors to analyze foot traffic trends alongside web and app traffic, card spend, and discounting (and more), to create high-quality KPI predictions and monitor fundamental performance trends.
Andreas Aglen, CEO at Exabel spoke on partnering with Placer.ai: “We’re thrilled to welcome Placer.ai to the Exabel platform as our latest data partner. Adding their geolocation dataset to the platform further enhances the breadth of alternative datasets that we’re able to offer investors. If you’re covering Retail, QSRs, Casinos, Real Estate, or any other sector where foot traffic is a fundamental driver of value, Placer is a must-have feature in your data mosaic.”
Ed Lavery, VP Investor Intelligence at Placer.ai, added further: “We are really excited to be adding Exabel to our Marketplace. We believe it is important for our customers to be able to access Placer’s market leading foot traffic data sets in any platform they choose. Exabel’s first class UI enables users to seamlessly identify alpha generating signals in Placer’s data and to extract more value out of our offering.
