Protex AI develops computer vision systems that use existing CCTV to detect unsafe behaviors in industrial environments in real-time.
Protex AI, founded in 2021, develops artificial intelligence systems for industrial safety. The company's core technology transforms existing CCTV infrastructure into an intelligent monitoring platform that uses computer vision and deep learning to detect unsafe behaviors in real-time. The system identifies specific risks such as missing personal protective equipment, unauthorized zone entry, and unsafe vehicle interactions.
The company's product is deployed across industrial, warehousing, and logistics environments. It reports an average 64% reduction in safety risks within three months of implementation. Protex AI has raised $54 million in funding to date.
A central technical and ethical focus of the company is privacy. Its system processes data via edge computing with automatic anonymization, a design choice intended to enable safety monitoring without compromising worker trust. This approach reflects the company's stated commitment to proactive risk prevention.
