NOCTURNE gives bars and nightlife venues a live crowd count — updated every 60 seconds — with zero effort from your staff. No cameras. No apps for patrons. Just data.
We install a small sensor, it counts devices passively, and you get a live dashboard. That's the whole product.
A device the size of a deck of cards goes behind your bar or near the entrance. Plugs into a power outlet. Takes 5 minutes and we handle everything.
The sensor detects WiFi signals from phones nearby. No personal data is collected — just an anonymous device count. Your customers will never know it's there.
Open your dashboard on any phone or laptop. Real-time crowd count, capacity percentage, tonight's trend chart, and push alerts when you're approaching capacity.
Everything is designed to be useful at a glance — on your phone, while you're working the floor.
See how many people are in your venue right now. Updated every 60 seconds. No guessing, no headcounts.
Get a push notification when you hit 80% and 90% capacity. Act before the fire marshal has to tell you.
See your crowd build and drop throughout the night. Learn your patterns across days, weeks, and seasons.
Compare tonight to past nights. Over time, use real data — not gut feel — to schedule the right number of staff.
Every Monday, get a summary: busiest night, peak hour, average crowd, and how this week compared to last.
As more venues join, see if downtown is busy or dead tonight — so you know if it's a you problem or an everyone problem.
We built this to be invisible to your patrons and respectful of their data.
WiFi signals only. Never video, audio, or images.
Anonymous device counts. No names, no tracking.
Works passively. Customers don't do anything.
Private to your venue. Never shared with competitors.
We're looking for 5 bars on the Commonwealth strip to launch with. Free hardware, free dashboard, no contract. All we need is a power outlet and 5 minutes.
Or text us directly — we'll walk you through it in person.
