Platform
Insights
Most store decisions — where to place products, how to configure layouts, which fixtures to invest in — are still made on instinct. RetailNext Insights changes that. By mapping the complete customer journey through your stores, Insights reveals exactly how shoppers navigate, dwell, and engage, giving your merchandising and store design teams the behavioral evidence they need to act with confidence and prove ROI.
Retail Intelligence That Drives What’s Next
Insights goes beyond traffic counting to map the complete customer journey — revealing which zones engage, which layouts convert, and where shoppers disengage before they reach the register.
Adaptive Retail Strategies That Evolve With Your Business
Test concepts in pilot stores, compare against control locations, and scale what works. Insights gives you the data to iterate quickly and invest confidently.
Real-Time Data for Strategic Decision Making
Replace guesswork with validated behavioral data. Every layout change, fixture investment, and planogram decision can be measured, proven, and replicated at scale.
See What’s Really Happening ON YOUR SHOP FLOOR.
Heat mapping, dwell time analysis, and full customer journey visualization — everything your teams need to understand what’s working and optimize what isn’t.
Built for the decisions that SHAPE YOUR STORES.
Insights gives your merchandising, store design, and customer experience teams the behavioral intelligence they need — from individual fixture performance to fleet-wide rollout decisions.
Know What’s Working on the Shop Floor.
Intuition has driven merchandising decisions for too long. Insights lets your team see exactly how shoppers interact with displays, fixtures, and product placements, so you can optimize based on evidence, not assumption.
- Measure dwell time and engagement with specific displays and product zones
- Identify which fixtures drive interaction and which are being ignored
- Optimize product placement based on actual shopper behavior
- Validate promotional fixture performance before scaling fleet-wide
Design Stores That Actually Work for Shoppers.
Every store layout decision has a cost. Insights lets you visualize how shoppers navigate your space, identify friction points and dead zones, and validate layout changes in pilot stores before committing to expensive fleet-wide renovations.
- Full path analytics to visualize the complete customer journey from entrance to exit
- Identify high-conversion zones, dead areas, and navigation friction points
- A/B test layout changes in pilot stores against control locations
- Measure pre- and post-renovation performance to quantify ROI on design investments
Validate Before You Scale.
Scaling a concept across hundreds of stores is expensive. Getting it wrong is more expensive. Insights gives you leading test-and-learn capabilities to validate new ideas in selected locations — with the data to prove what works before you commit.
- Pilot new formats, layouts, or merchandising concepts in select locations
- Compare performance against control stores with statistically meaningful data
- Make fleet-wide rollout decisions with evidence, not confidence
- Reduce risk and maximize return on store investment initiatives
Prove the Value of Every Store Decision.
Convincing leadership to invest in store changes is hard without hard data. Insights gives you investment efficacy measurement: the ability to correlate store modifications with measurable business outcomes and present clear ROI to your stakeholders.
- Measure the impact of layout changes, fixture investments, and planogram updates
- Correlate behavioral data with sales performance for zone-level conversion attribution
- Demonstrate ROI on store design and merchandising investments with before/after comparisons
- Share findings across your organization to build a culture of data-driven decision making

Common Questions
About the product
-
What is Full Path Analytics and what does it show?
Full Path Analytics maps the complete journey each shopper takes through your store — entrance to exit — identifying individual paths and differentiating shoppers from staff. It shows which routes shoppers take, which zones and displays they engage with, and how long they dwell, so you can see the behavior behind your performance metrics.
-
How does Insights differ from Traffic Analytics?
Traffic Analytics tells you how many people enter and convert; Insights tells you what they do inside the store — mapping full shopper journeys, heat-mapping where they dwell and engage, and revealing how layout, fixtures, and merchandising influence behavior. Traffic Analytics measures the outcome; Insights explains the behavior driving it.
-
How does behavioral heat mapping work?
Insights aggregates shopper movement into kinetic heat maps that show where shoppers (and staff) congregate, which zones draw the most engagement, and where shoppers pass through without stopping. Combined with dwell-time and engagement statistics, it reveals which areas of the store are performing best.
About buying and implementing
-
How does Insights integrate with our sales and POS data?
Insights correlates behavioral data — journeys, dwell, and zone engagement — with your sales and POS data, enabling zone-level conversion attribution and before/after measurement of layout and merchandising changes. It connects to POS, workforce management, and other systems through the RetailNext platform.
-
How does RetailNext handle customer privacy and GDPR compliance?
Insights measures shopper behavior at an aggregate level — journeys, dwell, and zone engagement — to understand how stores perform without identifying individual shoppers, supporting privacy-compliant deployment across global markets including GDPR regions.
-
What kind of ROI can retailers expect from Insights?
Insights lets you validate merchandising and store-design changes in pilot stores before fleet-wide rollout, then correlate those changes with sales outcomes to prove ROI. Retailers using RetailNext have seen results such as a 40% increase in shopper yield (Boggi Milano) and 30% savings in marketing spend and labor hours (Camper).
