Who buys, setting by setting
Each row is a setting from your solution pages, or the resellers your partnership page recruits. The rows count different things, districts in one, locations in another, so read each number on its own and never add them together.

| Public school districts | Director of maintenance and operations, custodial supervisor, school business official | 13,200 | 1,020 | 990 |
| Districts with 10,000 or more students | The same roles | 910 | 110 | 150 |
| Commercial service airports | Airport operations and facilities, or the airport's cleaning contractor | 500 | 25 | 29 |
| Manufacturing plants with 100 or more employees | Plant manager, facilities or maintenance manager | at least 26,000 | 1,740 | 2,220 |
| Supermarkets and grocery stores with 50 or more employees | Store operations, and facilities at the chain's head office | at least 19,500 | at least 1,350 | at least 2,700 |

The people in the roles
Jobs on a payroll in Texas and California. A national figure is not shown here.
Supervisors of cleaning crews
About 14,800 in Texas and about 16,100 in California. First-line supervisors of housekeeping and janitorial workers, often the people who schedule the cleaning a robot would share.
Janitors and cleaners
About 182,000 in Texas and about 238,000 in California. The crews a robot works alongside, counted so the size of the floor work in each state is visible.
Where the openings are
School buyers can be listed in full.
Your events page shows Sparkoz in front of school business officials in Texas and California. Those two states hold 2,010 districts between them, about 270 with 10,000 or more students, and every one is named in a public federal directory, so the list does not depend on who visits the booth.
Contractors work inside buildings they do not own.
67,800 janitorial service locations, at least 1,590 of them with 100 or more employees, 130 in Texas and 180 in California. A contractor can buy for its own crews, and those crews already work inside buildings that others own.
The largest sites are a short list.
64 large and medium hub airports and 910 districts with 10,000 or more students make a list short enough to work account by account.
Denominators, definitions and sources
- School districts are regular local school districts in the federal school district directory for the 2022 to 2023 school year, read through a public education data portal, 50 states and DC, that operate at least one school, including districts the directory files as part of a supervisory union (all of Vermont's, 33 in New York City and 10 in California, each counted on its own). Charter-only, regional and state-run agencies are left out. Enrollment is as the directory reports it.
- Airports are commercial service airports, public airports with at least 2,500 boardings a year, in the federal list of passenger boardings for calendar 2025, 50 states and DC. Large and medium hubs follow that list's own hub labels.
- Plants, stores, hospitals, parking and janitorial services are establishments in the federal annual count of business establishments by industry, 2023 state file. An establishment is one physical location with payroll. Size is payroll employees at the location in mid-March 2023. The file withholds some size counts to protect individual businesses, so a figure marked at least is a floor.
- People in the roles are from the federal occupational employment survey, May 2024, state files. The survey counts jobs on a payroll, rounded by the survey itself, and leaves out the self-employed.
- Settings are as listed on sparkoz.com on 1 Oct 2026. Every figure is computed from one of the federal data sets described above. Figures over 100 are rounded on purpose, and none is the size of any one opportunity.
The named version of this page, the actual districts, airports, contractors and sites inside a row, is built one row at a time. Reply on the thread, or write to my colleague Matthew, who is your point of contact from here: matthew@enquirerai.com.
