Competitors push expensive SaaS tools. We deliver processed video insights – no installations.
Trained on Mumbai's traffic jams, Lagos' okadas, and Manila's jeepneys – not just orderly German autobahns.
70% cheaper than Cubic/Kapsch for mega-projects (e.g., analyzed 10,000+ hours for Jakarta's MRT).
Client: Dubai RTA.
Challenge: TomTom's GPS data missed 45% of pedestrian activity at metro stations.
Solution: Our AI analyzed 500+ CCTV feeds, providing heatmaps of peak footfall.
Result: Won 3-year contract to optimize 100+ pedestrian crossings.

Q: Should I prioritize cost or accuracy?
A: Never compromise – leaders like DataTerminal offer both (99% accuracy at $5/hour).
Q: How to verify vendor claims?
A: Demand a free pilot – we'll analyze 10 hours of your footage for $0.
Q: What about data privacy?
A: Top firms auto-blur faces/plates. Avoid vendors storing raw video.
