Kepler Analytics Pty Ltd is a leading Retail Traffic and Sales Optimization platform based in Melbourne Australia with offices in USA and Japan. Kepler has representatives in a number of international markets and ~8,000 sensors in retail outlets across 15 countries and growing.
Due to the recent COVID-19 pandemic, retailers have had to adapt their business models and now data plays a greater part in decision making than ever before.
Online retail has historically used end to end data on their customers’ activities as every keystroke is captured and measured. Physical stores on the other hand, have not had a comparable way of capturing their customer journey.
Since its inception four years ago Kepler, using it’s unique retail traffic measurement system, has provided bricks-and-mortar retailers with a growing suite of metrics and analytical dashboards which capture much of the same measures available to online retailers.
Retailers are turning to Kepler’s innovative traffic measurement system and platform of AI analytical tools and away from the expensive and disruptive legacy camera-based traffic counting technologies. This innovative Australian technology has been competing head on with the global giants of the industry and continues to add new clients both at home and internationally.
David Gordon, Kepler’s Global CEO states, , ‘As we expand internationally, Kepler continues to acquire retail clients from the established international legacy systems. Kepler offers measures and analysis which cannot be derived using legacy video and other count technology. Our innovative dashboards allow defined role access and the system’s extremely flexible ability to group stores ensures that Kepler becomes a central operational and reporting tool for our retailers. Our K-way engagement and coaching approach ensures our clients receive true operational benefits and we aspire to be and are seen as a key business partner. We have great growth aspirations and continue to innovate to improve our value to retail clients worldwide.’
Intervalley Ventures joins Reinventure to invest in Kepler.
‘InterValley Ventures saw how vital the Kepler platform had become to its customers in terms of improving operational and financial performance and was immediately keen to invest. COVID-19 has accelerated the adoption of data in the enterprise sector and Kepler is benefitting from this trend in the retail sector globally. We’re also very excited to leverage our strong connections within Japan to help open up that market for Kepler. InterValley Ventures is anchored by New Frontier Capital Management whose parent company is Mizuho Financial Group, one of the largest financial services companies in the world. Retail is a very big part of Japanese culture and we can see Kepler gaining a lot of traction very quickly.’ Simon Wright, General Partner, InterValley Ventures
