The Challenge Link to this heading

Managing occupancy in real-time for various spaces such as clubs, events, and sports matches presents several challenges:

  • Ensuring accurate headcounts to prevent overcrowding and maintain safety standards
  • Coordinating multiple staff members across different entry points
  • Reacting quickly to changing occupancy levels
  • Complying with capacity regulations and safety requirements

Our Solution: CountIn Link to this heading

CountIn is a sophisticated Android application designed to address these challenges by providing a robust, real-time occupancy management system. It empowers event organizers and venue managers to maintain optimal crowd levels, enhance safety, and improve overall event experiences.
