Value proposition

Adds AI video analytics to cameras a site already owns, including decade-old 2D CCTV. It detects safety hazards, compliance breaches and productivity issues in real time without new hardware. Most sites go live in under 2 weeks. Customers report up to a 73% reduction in total recordable incident rate (TRIR) and 84% fewer safety non-compliances.

Products and solutions

Ailyssa: AI video analytics platform that derives 3D spatial understanding from a single 2D CCTV feed. AilyssaX: VLM-based contextual reasoning engine (launched June 2026) that verifies multi-step procedures. Ailytics (SF): plug-in integrated into Safie cloud cameras in Japan.

Unique value

Computer vision that works on legacy single-lens CCTV, inferring 3D metrics such as the danger zone under suspended loads and machinery proximity. It is trained on 5+ years of noisy real-world footage from 400+ sites to stay robust to rain, dust and poor lighting. Event-driven edge-to-cloud processing keeps inference cost low.

Target customer

Heavy-industry operators and contractors: construction general contractors, manufacturers, shipyards, logistics operators, airports, ports, oil & gas and mining. Includes mid-sized US industrial firms.

Industries served

Construction, Manufacturing, Logistics, Maritime/Shipyards, Airports/Infrastructure, Steel, Oil & Gas, Mining, Public housing

Technology advantage

Proprietary domain-specific data from 400+ deployments in 15 countries, including non-public site footage. 3D inference from a single 2D feed. Event-driven edge/cloud pipeline that sends only incident clips. Client churn below 1%. Distribution through Safie, which supplies 29 of Japan's 30 largest construction companies.

How they differentiate

Runs on existing legacy CCTV without specialized AI cameras or LiDAR. Infers 3D spatial risk from 2D feeds. Domain-tuned for harsh outdoor heavy-industry conditions. Covers safety, productivity and security on one platform. Aims to price below incumbents for mid-sized industrial firms.
