Brick-and-mortar stores are not disappearing. They are evolving. Customers expect the same personalization inside a store that they receive online. Yet most stores still offer a 2D or static planogram experience.
For years, retailers have invested heavily in personalizing online shopping. When customers walk into a physical store, that experience often resets to zero, even for loyal customers enrolled in a loyalty program.
A spatial AI layer for retail
With NavMe, MetaDigi Labs is bringing a spatial AI layer to retail environments. The vision is a store visit that can include:
- Personalized greetings and offers
- Real-time product availability
- Indoor navigation to products on a shopping list
- Seamless pickup experiences
- Context-aware recommendations throughout the journey
For retailers, this creates opportunities to increase engagement, improve conversion, and better understand customer behavior. For shoppers, it means less time searching and more time experiencing.
No app download
The platform is browser-native. It adds an intelligent, programmable layer to physical spaces without requiring an app download. Indoor navigation, personalization, real-time inventory visibility, and contextual experiences can come together in one journey from home to aisle.
As AI wearables and smart glasses evolve, the same spatial AI layer can power hands-free, context-aware experiences inside physical spaces. The biggest technical challenge is maintaining precise localization with minimal drift across large, dynamic indoor environments, and that is where the team is focused.
The future of retail is not a choice between e-commerce and brick-and-mortar. It is a connected experience that combines the best of both worlds.
NavMe: Navigate. Engage. Experience.
