Dental Radar
Screen the site before you commit.
Use an address-level report when the question is whether this location has enough demand, manageable competition, and the right nearby context to deserve the next step.
Buyer’s guide
Choose research that matches what you know today.
The right research depends on the decision in front of you. Start with the question you can answer now—an exact address, a market to search, or an area to narrow—then choose the level of evidence that fits it.

Start with your decision stage
Use a recurring discovery workflow.
A subscription platform can make more sense when you need to maintain a pipeline of markets, compare many candidates, or return to the work week after week.
Bring in analyst-led site selection.
When the decision starts with counties, corridors, or several possible sites, a study with analyst consultation can help narrow the field before a final address is available.
Use ZIP or regional context carefully.
Broad geography can frame a market, but a ZIP average may not answer a decision about one parcel, corridor, or shopping center.
Ask what sits behind the score.
A score can prioritize questions. Before it decides a site, inspect the definitions, geography, timing, and evidence that produced it.
Use an evidence check, not a label.
Public, modeled, and proprietary inputs can all be useful. The question is whether the claim, source, vintage, coverage, and uncertainty fit the decision.
