Presently for Hardware & Home Goods

Digital signage built for hardware and home goods stores

Every customer in a hardware store is mid-project, and projects have parts they forgot. The painter without a drop cloth, the deck builder without the right screws.

Presently puts project intelligence on screen: complete-the-project checklists near the registers, seasonal reminders timed to the calendar, and how-to features that position your store as the place that knows.

Why a static display falls short in a store

The forgotten item is a lost sale

Painter's tape with the paint, blades with the saw. Checklist content at the decision point recovers add-on sales the big-box self-checkout never will.

Seasonality runs your store, manually

Ice melt in November, mulch in April, grill season in June. Pre-scheduled seasonal campaigns flip your messaging on the calendar without anyone touching a poster.

Expertise is your edge, invisible

Customers choose the local hardware store for advice. Rotating how-to content and 'ask us about' prompts make that expertise visible even when the aisle expert is helping someone else.

What the screen shows, by who walks up

Presently detects approximate audience signals (age range, gender) with on-device computer vision, picks the best-matching content from your library, and discards the camera frame immediately. Nothing is stored, nothing leaves the building.

Try it: tap who walks up

This is the same routing logic that runs on the device. Pick a customer and watch the display pick the creative.
