Percolata is a SaaS platform that helps physical retailers optimize their sales team scheduling using proprietary deep learning technology and sensor data. Founded in 2011 by Greg Tanaka, the company struggled for five years to find product-market fit before pivoting from selling sensor data subscriptions to helping retailers schedule their existing staff more effectively. With 40 retail logos and 18.4 million scheduled hours under contract at $0.85 per hour, they're approaching $10M in annual revenue and experiencing rapid organic growth through word-of-mouth referrals.
