Drop
See how busy places are in real time!
What it does
Google tells you "busier than usual." Busier than what? Drop gives you an actual number. 47 people at this bar. 12 at that one. Real-time foot traffic at 54,000+ venues. No check-ins. Completely anonymous. Works passively in the background. Built solo over 8 months. Network effect product. Gets better as more people use it. Free on iOS.

I am slowly adding more locations now. This is intended to be a crowdsourced map. Everyone is welcome to add more locations and provide comments/votes here. Free people from going to a cafe for work only to leave because there's no wifi, restroom, or outlet!! Demo: https://x.com/KSeisai/status/1708273554041504028?s=20
