Mappedin has worked closely with customers and partners in a variety of industries over the last few years, gaining valuable insights on the unique challenges they face. This has led to a robust feature set of our pre-built applications, along with flexible mapping tools and SDKs that can serve a range of unique use cases. 

As we have worked to bring indoor mapping to venues around the world, we are excited to announce that Mappedin has been recognized as one of Canada's Top Growing Companies by The Globe and Mail!

Mappedin Update - Q3 2021 

This blog will focus on our work over the past quarter as we connected with customers, designed maps for some unique use cases, and signed up some more exciting new venues. Contact us today to learn more. 

Customer insights

During the month of September, our team had a chance to connect with many of our customers through a town hall format. It’s clear that a notable trend across the retail industry is that of mission-based shopping, which involves shoppers who have a specific product or retailer in mind and are set on getting in and out of the store, mall, or outlet as quickly as possible. 

Regarding indoor mapping, there’s interest from our customers in taking their venue maps further. For example, using the Mappedin platform to:

  • Manage both an operational and visitor-facing map

  • Utilize Digital out of Home (DooH) advertising on directory displays

  • Implement voice-activated directories

  • Use Mobile Pass for directory to mobile hand-off through QR code

  • Offer “save my parking spot” functionality 

Our customers are experts in their industries, making these insights invaluable and helping to guide the direction of our products in the coming year.  

Take your indoor maps further

Mappedin’s Directory Ads feature provides a simple, cost-effective way to monetize your directory signage during idle use or user interactions. Using Mappedin’s platform, you can bring Digital Out of Home (DooH) content to all screens throughout your portfolio in one simplified and centralized tool.
