# Sauna and bathhouse bespoke research

> Custom research on the sauna and bathhouse category, built on HeatCheck’s collection and modeling stack: new venues, new markets and new questions.

## Questions it answers

- Can you track this competitive set, this operator or this city?
- What is this operator or portfolio really doing, for diligence?
- How did demand respond to an opening, a price change or a new membership?
- Can we get the data as a feed for our own models?

## What you get

- Collection of new venues and markets: venue research with cited sources, 5-minute polling and archived raw data.
- Due diligence on an operator, a portfolio or an acquisition target.
- Pricing, membership and package studies.
- Before-and-after studies around openings and price changes.
- Custom data extracts, recurring feeds and board- or investor-ready briefs.

## How it is built

Every engagement runs on the same stack as the platform: researched venue facts with sources, 5-minute polling, raw archives, and the same versioned, proven models. Scope is agreed up front — question, venues, markets, period and deliverables — and new venues stay comparable with everything already tracked.
