A dark dispensary at night seen from a high corner camera: one customer walking in through the glass entrance door onto the doormat, another browsing jade-lit display cases on the right.

STORE ANALYTICS

Your door already counts.

The camera over your entrance becomes a visitor counter. Draw a boundary on the picture, and Budy counts everyone who crosses it — in, out, and back again — right on the device at your counter. No cloud video, no counting hardware, no more guessing about quiet Tuesdays.

Counts sync like every other Budy record — internet or not

Draw the boundary. That’s the setup.

Budy takes a still from your entrance camera and you trace the area you care about — a few taps around the doormat is usually enough. The moment you save, the zone is live and every crossing is counted, with direction.

Animated demo: a counting zone is drawn corner by corner over a snapshot from the entrance camera, three visitors are detected, and the day’s in and out counts tick up.

Illustrative counts — real zone-editor anatomy.
  1. 01

    Snapshot the entrance

    Mark one of your cameras as the entrance and Budy grabs a still from it — the same feed you already watch.

  2. 02

    Tap the corners

    Tap to drop a corner, drag to nudge it, as many corners as the doorway needs. Three make a zone.

  3. 03

    Save — counting starts

    One device on the floor takes the counting job; every other till just reads the numbers.

  4. 04

    Redraw any time

    Moved the shelves, moved the door? Re-trace the zone in seconds. The counts you’ve collected stay.

Counts people. Identifies no one.

Footfall runs entirely on the POS at your counter. Frames are read, people are counted, and the frames are gone — nothing is uploaded, nothing is recorded.

  • Video stays in the building

    Detection happens on the device itself. The only thing that leaves is a count — a timestamp, a direction, a camera.

  • No faces, no profiles

    A visitor who steps back in is recognised only as “already counted” — an opaque tag with no biometric data behind it, impossible to trace back to a person.

  • Off by default

    Footfall is a per-store feature you switch on deliberately — and switching it off stops the counting on the spot.

Walk-ins, beside your sales.

Counts land in the same offline-first database as your orders — in, out and unique visitors for the day, on the same screens your staff already use.

  • In, out, and still inside

    Direction-aware counting keeps arrivals and departures separate, so the door people leave through doesn’t inflate your traffic.

  • Visitors, not door swings

    The customer who steps out for a phone call and back in counts once. Repeat crossings fold into one visit.

  • Every till sees the same number

    One device counts; the result syncs to every phone, tablet and register in the store — and keeps counting with the internet down.

The fine print, in plain sight.

What footfall tracking needs, what it stores, and where it runs.

Cameras Any IP camera with an RTSP stream — mark one as the entrance
Setup A zone drawn on a snapshot — three corners minimum, as many as you like
Counting Direction-aware in / out with repeat-visit folding
Where it runs On the POS device at the counter — no cloud, no extra hardware
What syncs Anonymous count events: timestamp, direction, camera
Control Per-store toggle, off by default — hidden until you turn it on

Stop guessing your traffic.

Budy is the till, the scale, the labels — and now the door. Turn the camera you already own into the number you’ve been estimating.
