New businesses in the municipality
New businesses in the municipality by kind, every month.
What it does
Every month: places that opened in your city in the last six months, grouped by kind of business, as a short report and a map for the economic development team.
In one sentence: Monthly on the 1st at 08:00, in Bogota, find restaurants, coffee shops and 4 more in the area, keep only new ones, clean up their categories, write a report with xMap AI, then email the list to you and show them on a map.
Why it is useful
Economic development teams need to see where businesses open. This flow gives a monthly picture.
Who it is for
Government & smart cities. Municipalities, agencies and city teams planning services and keeping residents safe and informed. Every use case for government & cities
Best use cases
- An economic development office
- A chamber of commerce
- A licensing department
What each run gives you
- A monthly note
- A map
The time it saves
Monthly on the 1st at 08:00. Doing the same work by hand takes about 240 minutes each time; it runs about 1 time a month, so it saves about 4 hours a month (an estimate). It is medium: 8 blocks.
