Schools for recycling education visits
Primary schools invited to recycling and water saving classes.
What it does
Every term: primary schools in your service area with the most children living nearby, each with a visit invitation by xMap AI, approved by the education officer, emailed.
In one sentence: Monthly on the 1st at 08:00, in Lisbon, find primary schools and schools in the area, count who lives around, sort them by age_0_9 and keep the top 30, write a summary of each with xMap AI, wait for approval, then email the list to you.
Why it is useful
Children take what they learn home. School visits change habits across whole neighbourhoods.

The time it saves
Monthly on the 1st at 08:00. Doing the same work by hand takes about 45 minutes each time; it runs about 1 time a month, so it saves about 1 hours a month (an estimate). It is medium: 8 blocks.

How to set it up
- Build your first flow in ten minutes: From a blank page to a flow that emails you a ranked list every morning.
- Ask the map a question: How many of a kind of place, how many people for each, and where the gaps are, answered on the spot.
- Count what is around each of your places: Competitors, footfall magnets or services within a distance of each site.
- Compare sites side by side: Two or three spots measured the same way, one column each, the best of every row marked and the best site and why.
- Location intelligence: Using where things are, and what is around them, to make business decisions.
- Site selection: Choosing where to open a store, branch, clinic or facility.
- How to score candidate store sites: Compare sites on residents, competitors and neighbours, with an AI score and a reason.
