    The platform

    Built like infrastructure.
    Deployed like kit.

    Real dwell time even at the busiest times. Active engagement vs passive footfall. Stand-by-stand traffic. Anonymous by default, sponsor-grade by output.

    How it fits together

    Four layers. One operational picture.

    FlexNet is more than a single product, it's an end-to-end stack from the sensors on site to the historical reports landing in the executive's inbox the next morning.

    01 · Sensors

    Sensors

    Bluetooth-mesh sensors detect nearby mobile devices anonymously. Expandable to temperature, CO₂ and other environmental telemetry.

    02 · FlexNet

    FlexNet mesh

    The self-healing third network. Independent of cellular and venue Wi-Fi. Designed for scale.

    03 · Ops Centre

    Venue Operations Centre

    Live dashboard on desktop, tablet or mobile. Heatmap, queue status, dwell, staff dot-plan, targeted alerts.

    04 · Analysis

    Historical analysis

    Post-event reports, year-on-year layout optimisation, sponsor-grade dwell data.

    How it deploys

    Two stages of deployment, building on each other to offer greater value.

    FlexNet works on day one without any app integration. Add the SDK to your existing event app and a second wave of capability unlocks, for guests as well as for the ops room.

    Phase 1

    Without app

    Day one. Anonymous, infrastructure-only deployment.

    • Ops & vendorsReal-time queue and dwell data, crowd density by area, site-wide heatmaps.
    • SecurityReal-time queue and density displays for staffing decisions.
    • AttendeesReal-time queue data on public displays, no app required.

    Phase 2

    With app integration

    SDK plugs into your existing event app in 3 to 5 days.

    • Ops & vendorsPlus dot-map staff location, city-wide crowd heatmap, targeted alerts to any zone.
    • SecurityPlus targeted security alerts, 'report a concern' by attendees.
    • AttendeesPlus friend-finding, messaging, queue data in-pocket, sponsor activations.

    What sits on the mesh

    Four capabilities, one network.

    Location

    The layer everything else sits on. Indoor and outdoor. Anonymous by default, with the option to add identity for runners, staff and assets.

    Messaging

    Targeted, broadcast, two-way. Works without cellular. Geo-located push notifications around sponsor activations.

    Ops control

    Live dot-plan of stewards, medics and managers. Alerts route to the on-duty lead with two-way comms.

    Crowd analytics

    Anonymous flow, density and dwell. Sponsor-grade reporting. Year-on-year layout optimisation.

    Anonymous by default

    Operationally honest.

    FlexNet measures flow, density and dwell without capturing personal data. Identity is opt-in, added only when there is a clear operational reason: a runner, a medic, a high-value asset, a guest who wants to find their friend.
