Katalyst is a leasable network of automated point of sales. We connect merchants to pedestrians by using voice and touch activated kiosks, tablets and other touchscreens. Once a transaction is completed the items are delivered via e-download, drop-ship program, courier service or pick-up. Our nodes, we passionately call them MoneyTrees, accept multiple forms of payments including traditional and digital currencies. Each MoneyTree is connected to a central command center (CCC) that manages the network, diagnoses the health of the nodes and connects to payment processors. Retailers connect their back-end inventory mngt. systems to the CCC which is hosted and computed in AWS. To obtain profit, the network hardware and the digital shelf space are leased to participating brands. Cost is based on their participation, similar to 'pay for what you use' AWS model. We propose a leasable network that integrates physical with digital, delivered through modern touchscreen technology and installed at convenient pedestrian locations. Our solution does not require the user to download an app, instead the screens intercept shoppers for impulse-driven direct-access to brand content and sales. Most importantly, we provide the training and support for the MoneyTree™ network to grow and deliver concrete improvements in retail sales productivity metrics. Our proprietary Central Command Center (CCC) is the nucleus software engine behind our ecosystem. The CCC diagnoses the health of the network, connects to retailers’ e-commerce platforms, links payment merchants, and produces predictive forecasting that outlines actionable tasks that are then applied for sales optimization.
