INRIX publishes its Site Selection tools inside the INRIX IQ suite and markets day-parted mobility measures and Trade Area Trip APIs to retail and real‑estate customers. (inrix.com) The company says its Trip Paths and Trip Analytics products are built from “billions” of anonymized GPS and telematics points to produce origin‑destination flows, route corridors and time‑of‑day volume profiles. ( ) INRIX documentation and marketing materials list exposed metrics such as visit counts, drive‑time‑defined trade areas, dwell‑time/visit duration measures, and historical day‑part traffic volume used to benchmark candidate sites. ( ) GeoTargetly’s recent product set (Geo Translate, Geo Location) is positioned to deliver localized page variants and AI‑assisted translations on a single domain so brands don’t need separate localized sites or domains. ( ) The GeoTargetly suite also includes Geo Currency, Geo Content and redirect rules to swap pricing, offers, popups and map centering by visitor location via one JavaScript snippet or platform plugin.
