Tango Vision vs 22 Miles

22 Miles is a digital signage platform that does wayfinding on kiosks, and — unusually in this market — offers genuine on-premise deployment. The difference is what sits under the map.

Where 22 Miles is strong.

Written by us, about a competitor. We would say the same in a sales meeting — and a comparison with no concessions reads as a brochure.

They take data sovereignty as seriously as we do

Most of this market is cloud-only. 22 Miles publishes true on-premise deployment alongside GovCloud and FedRAMP-aligned hosting, claims full feature parity between them, and prices by building and floor rather than by hosting environment. We rate that, and we are not going to pretend they are a cloud-only vendor.

Unlimited seats, and they say so in public

No per-user licensing, no minimum purchase, no annual price increases. Published commercial terms are rare in this market.

A conversational assistant that runs locally

They ship an offline AI assistant small enough to run on the device without cloud tokens. For disconnected or secure environments that is a more concrete answer than most vendors offer.

Capability by capability.

Presence of a capability, not scores. Where we could not verify something from public material, the table says so rather than guessing.

CapabilityTango Vision22 Miles
Digital signage and content managementYes — multimedia moduleYes — this is their core product
Kiosk wayfindingYesYes
Blue Dot live positioningTheir published mobile hand-off is QR-based. We found no indoor positioning technology claim of any kind, so treat their wayfinding as static unless they say otherwise.QR-anchor baseline, plus a provider interfaceNot stated publicly
CAD / IFC / BIM importTheir described input is labelled floor maps converted to editable SVG — image-based rather than CAD-based. They also offer to do the conversion for you.YesNot stated publicly
IMDF import and exportYesNot stated publicly
Semantic building graphThis is the structural difference. Their map is a drawing that has been made interactive; ours is a query-able model of the building that the drawing renders.Yes — W3C BOTNot stated publicly
Facility management, leasing, equipment registerTheir adjacent scope is room booking and workplace integrations — Microsoft Places, Teams, Zoom — rather than building operations.YesNot stated publicly
IoT and building-systems telemetryYesNot stated publicly
AI agent surface (Model Context Protocol)YesNot stated publicly
Runs on your own infrastructureThe one vendor here that genuinely contests this ground. Two distinctions remain: neither of us should be described as air-gapped without saying so explicitly, and FedRAMP-aligned is not FedRAMP-authorised.YesYes — on-premise, GovCloud, FedRAMP-aligned
Published pricesNoNo — but commercial terms are published

Which one should you buy?

One of these two answers is going to be right for your building, and it is not always ours.

Choose theirs

Choose 22 Miles

Choose 22 Miles if the project is fundamentally a signage and kiosk estate — many screens, lots of content, room booking — and the wayfinding is one surface among them. On signage they are the specialist and we are not.

Choose ours

Choose Building OS

Choose Building OS if the map needs to be backed by a model of the building rather than a drawing, if you need CAD or IFC ingest, or if maintenance, leases, equipment and sensor data belong on the same platform.
