My brand against two rivals, city by city
Your brand against two rivals, branch by branch and city by city, every month.
What it does
Every month: every branch of your brand and two rivals across your cities, counted and mapped side by side, with a short note from xMap AI.
In one sentence: Monthly on the 1st at 08:00, in Tokyo, Osaka and Nagoya, find coffee shops in the area, find coffee shops in the area, find coffee shops in the area, write a report with xMap AI, then show them on a map and email the list to you.
Why it is useful
Share of branches is the simplest view of who is winning where. This flow keeps it current every month.
Who it is for

The time it saves
Monthly on the 1st at 08:00. Doing the same work by hand takes about 240 minutes each time, so it saves about 16 hours a month (an estimate). It is medium: 8 blocks.
