Night bus routes where nightlife is
Night bus routes drawn from where nightlife is.
What it does
Every year: bars and nightclubs in your city counted by district, the busiest areas written up by xMap AI as a night bus route plan, emailed and mapped.
In one sentence: Monthly on the 1st at 08:00, in Berlin, find bars and night clubs 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
Night buses carry workers and visitors home safely. Routes follow the nightlife.

The time it saves
Monthly on the 1st at 08:00. Doing the same work by hand takes about 120 minutes each time; it runs about 1 time a month, so it saves about 2 hours a month (an estimate). It is easy: 6 blocks.
