The problem

Site selection isn't a data problem.
It's an intelligence problem.

Demographics in one tab, foot traffic in another, competitors in a spreadsheet, parcel records on a fourth screen, and your committee waiting on a memo. Most CRE teams burn 80% of their time assembling data and 20% defending decisions. Cobroker is the intelligence: every source, every score, every citation in one chat.

Brand DNA

Learn what makes your best stores work

Our AI reads thousands of websites and your top-performing locations to extract the demographics, psychographics, competitor density, and trade area signals that actually drive your revenue. The model weighs each factor automatically, so every site decision starts from your brand's playbook instead of a generic retail or restaurant average

Parcel scoring

Score every parcel in your market in seconds

Cobroker ranks tens of thousands of parcels against your brand DNA, enriched with zoning, ownership, current tenant, and trade area data. You see the best fit for your brand regardless of what's currently listed, so your real estate team gets to the right address faster than the broker can call about it

Trade area overlap visualization in perspective
Cannibalization

Protect your existing stores from the next one

Every new site silently transfers sales from the ones you already operate. Cobroker quantifies cannibalization, market saturation, and territory encroachment for every candidate location, so you spot the markets where your next store will compound revenue and the ones where it will cannibalize itself. Defensible to a franchise committee, an investor board, or a master franchisor protecting territory

Common questions

Frequently asked questions

What is Cobroker?

Cobroker is an agentic site selection platform for retail, restaurant, and franchise brands. It builds a custom model trained on your portfolio's Brand DNA, scores tens of thousands of parcels in seconds, and quantifies cannibalization before you sign a lease. Every output is committee-ready, with a cited source behind every number.

Who is Cobroker for?

Cobroker works with multi-unit retail brands, quick-service and full-service restaurant chains, franchise systems, multi-unit operators, and commercial real estate brokers running tenant representation. Engagements typically work for brands with 25 or more existing stores planning at least 10 net-new locations in the next 24 months.

How is Cobroker different from GrowthFactor, SiteZeus, or Placer?

Cobroker trains a custom model on your portfolio instead of using industry-wide averages, so a quick-service restaurant doesn't get the same predictions as a fitness studio. Every variable and weight is visible and auditable. A forward-deployed engineer embeds with your real estate team weekly, runs expansion scenarios between committee meetings, and refreshes the model every three months.

What is Brand DNA in site selection?

Brand DNA is the AI-derived profile of what makes a brand's top-performing locations work. Cobroker analyzes thousands of websites and your highest-revenue stores to extract the demographics, psychographics, competitor density, and trade area signals that actually drive your revenue, then weighs each factor automatically. Every site decision then starts from your brand's playbook instead of a generic retail or restaurant average.

How does Cobroker score parcels?

Cobroker ranks tens of thousands of parcels against your Brand DNA in seconds, enriched with zoning, ownership, current tenant, and trade area data. The platform surfaces the best fit for your brand regardless of what's currently listed on the market, so your real estate team can pursue off-market opportunities before a broker calls about them.

How does Cobroker model cannibalization?

Cobroker quantifies cannibalization, market saturation, and territory encroachment for every candidate location. The model evaluates trade area overlap with your existing stores, measures revenue transfer between locations, and surfaces a cannibalization-adjusted forecast for each site. The result is a defensible network-wide impact score your real estate committee, investor board, or master franchisor can review before approving a lease.
