Theft Detection System

Theft and shrinkage are hard to spot in hours of footage and thousands of transactions. A theft detection system flags unusual events for a person to check, without accusing anyone automatically.

Built around your business.

Fairness and evidence matter. Alerts go to trained staff with the relevant clip, and the system doesn't take action against people on its own.

What we deliver.

  1. 01

    Loss-risk assessment

    Where and when losses occur, and which signals are likely to be useful.

  2. 02

    Detection rules and models

    Video and, where available, transaction signals combined into review alerts.

  3. 03

    Review workflow

    Alerts with clips and context for loss-prevention staff to confirm or dismiss.

  4. 04

    Reporting

    Trends by location, time and category to guide prevention.

Where it's used.

Retail stores with rising shrinkage

Highlighting the zones and times where losses concentrate, so prevention effort goes there.

Warehouse and yard security

Detecting unauthorized removal of goods.

Self-checkout monitoring

Flagging mismatches between items and scans for staff.

Typical building blocks: Video analytics · Point-of-sale and inventory data · Alerting · Review dashboards

    Pilot with one team

    A limited rollout with human review lets us tune behavior on real cases.

    Connections to your systems, permissions, logging and fallbacks for when it's unsure.

  4. 04

    Measure and expand
