About Footprints AI

Footprints AI (formerly Footprints for Retail) is a retail media platform that lets retailers run their own retail media networks across in-store screens and radio, websites, apps, and off-site channels. Brands and agencies use it to plan audiences from real purchase data, launch campaigns, and measure sales impact down to the SKU and store level. The Bucharest-based company works with retailers such as Profi, Auchan Romania, and Eurocash across Central and Eastern Europe.

Pros & Cons

Pros

  • Measures sales impact against real POS receipts at SKU and store level, not modeled panels
  • Covers in-store screens and radio alongside online, social, programmatic, DOOH, and CTV in one workflow
  • Advertisers can open a self-serve account and launch campaigns without a sales call
  • Store-level A/B testing and control groups support incrementality measurement
  • Large retailer network in Central and Eastern Europe (Profi, Auchan Romania, Eurocash)

Cons

  • No public media rates or retailer pricing; costs depend on campaign and contract
  • Reach is concentrated in Central and Eastern Europe, mainly Romania and Poland
  • Retailers need in-store screens, sensors, or Wi-Fi and POS data integration to get full value
  • Few independent user reviews; most performance figures come from vendor case studies
