DECISIONS · FRANCHISE

Give every franchisee the intelligence behind the decision.

Every franchisee with the power of Decision Intelligence

SignalFlare puts brand intelligence and decision modeling in every franchise group’s hands, so each operator can make the right move for the market they know best.

WHAT OPERATORS GET

Everything you need to make the right move for your market.

Pricing, menu, and promotion decisions, informed by what’s happening in each operator’s own trade areas.

BRAND INTELLIGENCE

Know what’s happening in your market.

Start with the question every operator asks: is it me, or the market? Then see traffic, spend, guest sentiment, and competitive activity for every trade area, alongside each store’s own sales.

AI AGENTS

A second analyst on your team.

AI agents dig through your stores’ data with you to test a hunch and build the case for a change.

DECISION MODELING

Model a move before you make it.

The same decision modeling tools the brand uses, for pricing, menu, and promotion changes in your own stores.

BUILT FOR BOTH SIDES

Brand-approved. Operator-owned.

AI advises. People decide. Every recommendation is signed off by the brand before it goes out, and every operator chooses what to do with it.

Three ways to move Q3 price at SignalFlare Cafe, built on your modeled POS and trade-area demand. I've put them side by side.
Targeted fits your stores best: +2.4% to +3.1% revenue, with traffic risk held between −0.2% and −0.6%. Nine core items move; the value tier doesn't.
Across the board earns more on paper and puts more traffic at risk than your two Pink stores have absorbed before. The reasoning stays attached.
