Landing page captured for the 2026-10-03 issue.
For
Seoul shop owners evaluating storefront foot traffic
Worth noticing
The homepage breaks its reported customers into 30 cafés, 20 restaurants, and 10 real-estate businesses.

Field notes

The service describes four shop-floor questions: when pedestrian traffic peaks, how many passersby stop or enter, whether a display change shifts those counts, and where a queue loses customers. For sites not yet operating, TARS offers a 1–2 week location survey. Its homepage reports more than 60 participating businesses, broken down as 30 cafés, 20 restaurants, and 10 real-estate businesses; those figures are presented by the site, not independently verified.
