Make the value testable

## Less waiting. A result you can check.

A measured checkout result, calculated from matched periods before and after a staffing change.

240 customer-minutes of waiting avoided

120 customers × 2 minutes less waiting

Measurement scope

The measured result covers average wait falling from 6 to 4 minutes across 120 customer observations. Customer waiting time is not paid labor saved. Financial ROI needs actual staffing costs, deployment costs, and authorized transaction data; camera activity alone does not establish purchases or revenue uplift. Start with agreed entrance, sales-floor, service, or checkout views. Validate camera coverage and counting rules; do not infer identity, emotion, or purchase intent. Fitting-room interiors are excluded.
