The problem

A queue forms. Customers wait. Then they leave — and you never knew.

Research shows customers abandon a queue after 3–4 minutes. By the time a staff member notices the line, half the customers have already decided to leave. FlowLinks alerts your team the moment a queue forms — not after it's already cost you sales.

What FlowLinks monitors

Open a till before customers walk.

Queue length tracking

Count the number of people in a queue in real time — alert when it exceeds your threshold.

Wait-time measurement

Track how long customers have been waiting — flag when average wait exceeds your service standard.

Queue abandonment detection

Identify customers who join a queue and then leave without purchasing — track lost sales.

Till & counter occupancy

Know which tills are active, which are unstaffed, and when a counter needs to open immediately.

Peak hour reporting

Dashboards showing queue build-up by hour and day — so you can staff smarter before it happens.

Multi-location monitoring

Monitor queues across every store from a single dashboard — intervene at whichever location needs it.

How it works

From queue forming to till open in under 60 seconds.

01

AI monitors your checkout area live

FlowLinks connects to your existing till cameras via RTSP — no new hardware needed.

02

Queue threshold crossed

The moment queue length or wait time exceeds your configured limit, an event fires.

03

Alert sent to floor manager

Staff receive a notification on their phone or via WhatsApp — open a till before customers abandon.

04

Data logged for planning

Every queue event is stored with time, duration, and length — so you can plan staffing smarter.
