It's a hardware and software solution designed to help local retailers showcase their products online and attract customers through Google Search and Maps. Here's how it works: Hardware: Retailers connect a Pointy box to their point-of-sale system. Software: When a product is scanned at the register, the Pointy software automatically adds it to a virtual "Pointy Page" for the store on Google. Benefits: This allows customers to see what products are available in the store before they visit, check stock levels, and even reserve items online. This can significantly improve online visibility and drive foot traffic to physical stores.
