Technis partners with Shopify and pushes the boundaries of retail analytics.

An exclusive partnership and three new features to turn your space data into decisions, faster.

At Technis, our vision is simple: turn every physical space — retail, real estate, industrial, or public — into a space that's measured, understood, and managed at the same speed as the digital world; it's in that spirit that we're taking a new step forward with our Retail Intelligence solution.

You manage one site, or fifty. You have sensors, cameras, dashboards. But how many times have you looked at your data without finding the answer to the question that really mattered — where exactly are we losing our customers? Where do visitors go after the escalator? Which sites in my network are underperforming right now?

Data without the right view is just noise. This month, we're launching three new features — the Sales Funnel, Visitor Direction and the Multisite Map — and announcing our native integration with Shopify, for merchants who manage their retail online and in-store.

Technis × Shopify: your online and in-store metrics, finally in the same view

You run your business on Shopify. You know how many visitors came to your site, how many converted, how much they spent. But as soon as the question turns to your physical stores, the answer stops at revenue.

Technis Retail Intelligence is now available directly from the Shopify App Store. In one click, and your stores surface the same metrics as your website: incoming traffic, conversion rate, average basket, visitor demographics — in under 24h, no technician required.

What you can do with it:

  • Compare your online and in-store performance with the same vocabulary, in the same interface
  • Track your funnel from the street to the purchase, store by store
  • Identify conversion gaps across your points of sale in real time
  • Share a unified view with your retail teams, no manual export needed

One important note: the app works on all Shopify plans — Standard, Advanced and Plus. Connection is one click, sensor installation takes about one hour per store, and first data is available in under 24h.

Technis × Shopify is available now on the Shopify App Store.

Sales Funnel: your conversion funnel, your way

Most analytics tools offer a fixed conversion funnel: passersby, entries, purchases. It's a starting point — but it rarely matches the way your business actually works.

The Sales Funnel in Spaces is configurable. You define as many steps as you feel useful to you, each linked to a metric and the zone or passage that matters for your retail operation. Front door entries. Engagement in a specific aisle. Purchases at the till. Name each step freely, define your own logic, and the funnel reflects your business — not a generic template.

What you get in a single view:

  • Absolute values and conversion ratios, with a toggle between step-by-step and from the first step
  • Near real-time data and historical analysis (7 days, or any custom period)
  • Period comparison — previous period or custom — to track your progress
  • Step inspection: open any step to display time spent, revenue, average basket, age and gender breakdown
  • Multi-site analysis: apply the same funnel across your entire network

What this changes: your weekly review no longer starts with "how did the week go." It starts with "here's exactly where we lost customers — and at which step."

The Sales Funnel is available now for all Spaces customers.

Visitor Direction: the choice your visitors make at every junction

Counting how many people enter your space is the baseline. The real question is what happens next — and at every escalator, entrance and junction, your visitors make a directional choice that influences the performance of your space.

Until now, that choice was invisible.

Visitor Direction measures the directional split at each monitored passage — left, straight ahead, right, both directions — and displays it as directional arrows directly on your floor plan in Spaces. The widget is the same as your heatmap: a single toggle to switch from "where are people" to "where are they going next."

What you can do with it:

  • Check whether your signage is actually sending visitors where you want them to go
  • Identify directional imbalances at escalators, entrances or junctions before they create congestion points
  • Position staff, services and promotions on the paths visitors actually take
  • Track how flows evolve over time after a layout or signage change

A few important points: Visitor Direction works on your existing cameras, and every deployment starts with a feasibility assessment by Technis — because accuracy depends on camera angle and passage geometry, and we only deploy where the measurement will be reliable. It's an analytical feature, not real-time: data is available by the minute, hour, day and month. And it measures each decision point independently — full journey reconstruction is the direction we're building towards.

Visitor Direction is available now as a paid add-on on Technis Spaces, on request. Configuration is handled by Technis.

Multisite Map: your entire portfolio, in a single view

When you manage multiple sites, the problem is always the same: getting a cross-portfolio view means opening report after report, switching tabs, assembling the picture manually. By the time you have the full picture, the meeting has already started.

The Multisite Map solves that. It's a new widget in Spaces reports that places all your sites on an interactive map, with real performance data attached to each one. Assign a primary metric — footfall, occupancy, energy consumption, whatever matters most to you — and up to four secondary metrics, then colour each location by performance level. Underperforming sites stand out immediately.

What you can do with it:

  • Filter by region, country, city or site type to focus on the right scope
  • Search directly for a specific site without navigating the map
  • Access any site from the map, with its floor plan built in
  • Switch to a table view for a more structured read of the same data
  • Share a full-screen version via link — for your Digital Signage displays or presentations

One thing to note: addresses in Spaces are now connected to a mapping API, meaning site locations are standardised and accurately geocoded. A quiet change, but with a real impact on data quality at portfolio scale.

The Multisite Map is available now for all Spaces customers.

Why this matters

Organisations that manage their physical spaces well — retail, real estate, facility management, energy, security — have one thing in common: they act on their data faster than their peers. Not because they have more of it, but because they can read it clearly and share it instantly.

The Sales Funnel, Visitor Direction, the Multisite Map and the Shopify integration each answer the same fundamental question: what is actually happening in my spaces, right now, and across my network? Each one closes a blind spot that previously required manual work, external tools, or guesswork.

July 2026 is another step in that direction.

The Sales Funnel and the Multisite Map are available now for all Spaces customers. Visitor Direction is available on request as a paid add-on — contact your CSM to kick off a feasibility assessment. The Technis × Shopify integration is available on the Shopify App Store.
