Estimote provides wireless beacons and a platform that allows apps to trigger contextual actions based on a user's proximity to beacons. Beacons communicate with nearby phones to identify locations and trigger personalized notifications or payments. Estimote's SDK allows developers to integrate beacon technology into apps. Use cases include directing customers in stores, dynamic pricing based on weather, greeting VIPs at airports, and contactless payments at restaurants. Nearly 20,000 developers are using the platform across industries like retail, healthcare, transportation, and hospitality.

- 2. What is Estimote? How does it work? Estimote gives your apps context about the physical world in a user’s immediate vicinity. It’s more granular than GPS and more frictionless than NFC. Our wireless sensors (Beacons) “talk to” apps on your consumer’s phone to trigger contextually relevant actions, from personalized notifications to frictionless payments. An Estimote Beacon acts as a lighthouse, emitting a constant signal that can be received by most iOS and Android devices in range. SHOE STORE! ENTRANCE!
