CrowdPulse

CrowdPulse is a mobile app that predicts real-time crowding and wait times for nearby everyday places—gyms, cafes, parks, pharmacies, and clinics—using aggregated, privacy-safe signals and optional user check-ins. Instead of generic “popular times,” it focuses on the next 60–180 minutes with confidence ranges, plus practical guidance: best arrival window, expected line length, and whether it’s trending up or down. Users can set proximity alerts like “tell me when my gym drops below 30% busy” or “notify me if the pharmacy line spikes.” For businesses, a lightweight dashboard lets them publish live capacity (manual or via POS/door counter integrations) and push accurate wait-time updates. The app is realistic: it starts with a few categories and cities where data density is high, then expands as usage grows.
