Why Museum Operations Manager Choose SnapCount

Purpose-built features for museum exhibit visits professionals

Eliminate Hardware CAPEX

Ditch the costly installation, calibration, and ongoing maintenance of unreliable infrared beams or pressure plates. Use the standard mobile devices your staff already carry.

Differentiate Patron Types

Unlike indiscriminate sensors, staff can tag counts (e.g., 'School Group,' 'Member,' 'Staff') in real-time, providing far richer Patron Demographic data for grant reporting and analysis.

Instantaneous Crowd Control

Monitor current capacity and Visitor Flow across multiple galleries simultaneously, allowing for proactive, synchronized management of high-traffic Choke Points before capacity limits are breached.

How to Count Gallery Entrance Count with SnapCount

Get your museum exhibit visits counting session running in three simple steps. No downloads, no sign-ups, no hardware needed.

Step 1

Create a Free Session

Click "Start Counting" and you'll have a live museum exhibit visits counting session in under 30 seconds. No account required — just open your browser on any device and begin tracking gallery entrance count, special exhibit attendance, peak hour group size immediately.

Step 2

Set Up Your Counters

Step 3

Count Together in Real Time

Every tap syncs instantly across all connected devices. Museum Operations Manager can count simultaneously from different locations while the totals update live. When you're done, export your gallery entrance count data to CSV or Excel for reporting and analysis.

The Problem & The Solution

The Hidden Costs and Inaccuracy of Traditional Floor Sensors

Those pressure plates and infrared beams fail exactly when you need them most: during a high-profile opening or a school field trip rush. You get conflicting data when a stroller passes, or when two people cross the plane simultaneously, leading to skewed Exhibit Utilization Rates. Plus, the capital expenditure and maintenance lifecycle for hardware installation is a constant budget drain, requiring specialized technicians for simple calibration.

Your security team needs to know the Gate Count *now* to manage Choke Points, not an hour later after the data has been aggregated from the main server. Relying on analog counters that require staff to physically check and log numbers introduces human error and latency, making real-time intervention impossible during peak flow conditions or when managing sensitive gallery capacities.

⚠️Stop relying on floor sensors and manual counting methods.

SnapCount: The Future of Accurate Museum Patron Data

SnapCount turns every docent or security guard's device into a synchronized digital clicker. Staff stationed at the entrance can collaboratively tally visitors, differentiating between general admission, staff, and school groups, instantly refining your Patron Demographics. Since the count is human-verified and instantly updated, you eliminate the inherent inaccuracies and false positives common with physical sensors.

When the West Wing hits 80% capacity, every team member—from the front desk to the director—sees the updated count instantly on a shared dashboard. This real-time visibility allows for immediate resource allocation or crowd management at known Choke Points, ensuring optimal Dwell Time and maximizing the visitor experience without reliance on expensive, laggy proprietary hardware.

Instead of passing clipboards, shouting numbers, or reconciling spreadsheets at the end of the day, your entire team counts into one shared session that updates instantly.
