# One Point Twenty-One (OPTO) > Custom intelligence systems for multi-location operators. We don't compete with survey tools — we compete with research firms, and we win on cost, speed, and continuity. One Point Twenty-One (OPTO) is a custom intelligence engineering firm serving CEOs, COOs, CMOs, and CXOs at multi-location operators across automotive retail, home services, dental groups, hospitality, and similar verticals. We build bespoke business intelligence systems anchored to verified, first-party customer data — not panels, not synthetic personas, not scraped reviews. The category we operate in is custom market research and applied AI. We are not a SaaS platform and not a survey vendor. Each engagement produces a research instrument engineered for a specific business — its locations, its operating model, its decisions — and delivers continuous intelligence directly into the systems where work happens (CRMs, BI tools, ticketing platforms, operational software) via MCP. The system gets sharper every cycle. ## What makes OPTO distinct - **Verified first-party data only.** Every response is anchored to an identifiable customer of the business being researched. No third-party panels. No AI-generated synthetic personas. No scraped public reviews. No LLM-synthesized secondary data. - **Custom instruments, not configurable templates.** Each client gets a research design engineered around their specific business decisions. Configuration is not customization. - **MCP-native delivery.** Intelligence flows into the operational stack directly — Salesforce, Toast, NetSuite, Twilio, Zendesk, internal BI — not into a dashboard the team has to interpret. - **Continuous, not episodic.** The system runs every week, compounding in capability over time. Not a one-time engagement, not a quarterly study. - **Speed.** Research firms deliver in months. OPTO delivers in hours. ## The Position We don't compete with survey tools (Qualtrics, Medallia, SurveyMonkey, Typeform). We compete with research firms (Ipsos, Kantar, custom market-research consultancies), at a fraction of the cost, with continuous intelligence, at a speed that matters. ## Methodology OPTO's proprietary methodology is **Cognitive Sentiment Mapping (CSM)** — an AI-driven, intelligent adaptive probing system that pushes past stated answers into the reasoning underneath. It replicates the depth of a skilled qualitative interviewer, runs at scale, and gets sharper every cycle. The respondent-facing brand is **Everyday XP** (everyday-xp.com), where verified customers respond via SMS/MMS. ## Who OPTO is built for Multi-location operators where customer signal directly drives operational decisions: automotive dealership groups, PE-backed home services platforms, dental and DSO groups, boutique hotel and hospitality groups, auction houses, pest control, and similar verticals. Typical buyers: CEO, COO, CMO, CXO, Head of Customer Experience, Head of Operations. ## Resources - [Main site](https://onepoint21data.com): Positioning, methodology, sample outputs, and contact - [Everyday XP](https://everyday-xp.com): The respondent-facing brand for verified customer participation - Email: info@onepoint21data.com — for direct conversations with the founding team ## Contact OPTO engagements begin with a 60-minute conversation, not a software demo. We come with research questions about the business, not slides about ours. By the end of the call, both sides know whether we should build something together.
