Covering the Phoenix metro, including Mesa and Chandler. No account, no paywall, nothing to buy. Built for anyone deciding where to open, and for the people who advise them.
The projected chance that a specific business type lasts two or more years at a specific address.
Most people choose a location on rent, on a walk-through, and on a feeling about foot traffic. Those are the things you can see standing on the sidewalk. What you cannot see is whether that block has actually supported your kind of business over time, or whether the businesses that lasted there were a different kind entirely.
That question is answerable before a lease is signed, and it is what this research covers for Phoenix.
Across Phoenix addresses, a vitamin supplement store ranges from about 38% to 84% projected two-year survival, a spread of 46 percentage points. A indonesian restaurant ranges from about 71% to 97%, a spread of only 26. For one of those, the address is close to the whole decision. For the other, it barely moves the answer.
This is the single most useful thing to tell someone early. It tells them how much of their energy belongs on the site search.

Across 18 Phoenix neighborhoods, Ocotillo is the strongest on average, at about 80% projected two-year survival, with its best locations near 91%. Dana Ranch averages about 73%.
Averages hide the thing that matters. A single block can beat an entire neighborhood's ranking, and every low-ranked neighborhood contains locations that beat the metro average. Use the neighborhood view to narrow a search, not to rule an area out.
The model is trained on roughly a million business outcomes and scores 500+ business types across up to five price tiers in 24 U.S. metros. Of everything it considers, the Revenue Capture Score, our own measure of projected market share against forecasted local spend, carries the most predictive weight.
