Penguin Location Services has announced a strategic technology partnership with Cisco Meraki and is now listed on the Meraki.io app store — making Penguin’s indoor positioning and location intelligence platform directly accessible to organizations already running Cisco Meraki network infrastructure.
Indoor Positioning on Your Existing Meraki Network
Penguin operates as a specialized managed indoor positioning provider — delivering location intelligence across enterprise, healthcare, and retail environments without requiring a parallel infrastructure build. Organizations running Cisco Meraki Wi-Fi already have the network foundation Penguin needs. The partnership makes it possible to deploy location-based applications on that existing infrastructure, reducing implementation cost and time significantly.
Penguin’s platform delivers tiered accuracy levels — from zone-level presence detection to room-level and sub-room precision — depending on the application and the reader density available in each environment.
Location-Based Applications Available Through the Partnership
Meraki customers can now access Penguin’s full suite of location intelligence applications through the app store listing:
Real-time presence detection that confirms when staff arrive at specific locations — without badge swipes or manual check-in.
Live visibility into where people and equipment are located across the facility — enabling faster retrieval, better distribution, and reduced search time.
Turn-by-turn indoor navigation for visitors, patients, and employees moving through large or complex multi-floor facilities.
Targeted communications triggered by a user’s location — appointment reminders, safety alerts, or contextual information delivered at the right moment.
Aggregated movement and occupancy data surfaced through business intelligence dashboards — supporting space planning, flow optimization, and operational decisions.
Customizable business rules that trigger automated workflows when people or assets enter, exit, or dwell in defined zones — without manual intervention.
The partnership serves enterprise, healthcare, and retail environments — any organization where understanding the movement of people and assets across a physical space has operational or safety value.
