Protex AI

What it does

Protex AI is a computer vision safety platform that analyzes existing CCTV camera feeds using AI to detect workplace safety violations in real time - PPE non-compliance (missing hard hats, high-vis vests, safety glasses), unsafe behaviors (improper lifting, restricted zone intrusion, near-miss events), and environmental hazards. The platform works with cameras already installed in warehouses, manufacturing facilities, and construction sites - adding an AI analysis layer without new hardware infrastructure. Alerts and incidents are logged automatically, creating an audit trail for safety reporting. Protex AI enables proactive safety management - catching unsafe behaviors before they cause incidents rather than investigating after.

Strengths

• Mid-market manufacturing and logistics facilities use Protex AI to improve safety compliance - AI monitoring replacing manual safety walkthroughs and ensuring consistent enforcement across shifts.
• Large enterprise manufacturing and distribution operations use Protex AI for portfolio-wide safety monitoring - AI analyzing camera feeds across hundreds of locations and surfacing systemic safety trends.
• Protex AI is a computer vision safety platform that analyzes existing CCTV camera feeds using AI to detect workplace safety violations in real time - PPE non-compliance (missing hard hats, high-vis vests, safety glasses), unsafe behaviors (improper lifting, restricted zone intrusion, near-miss events), and environmental hazards.

Watch-outs

• Detection accuracy in complex environments: Computer vision accuracy degrades in low-light, crowded, or visually complex environments — facilities with challenging camera conditions may see higher false positive or false negative rates.
• Privacy and employee monitoring concerns: AI monitoring of employees via CCTV raises privacy and labor relations concerns that must be addressed through transparent communication, union consultation where applicable, and clear data policies.
• Requires adequate camera infrastructure: Protex AI works with existing cameras but requires sufficient camera coverage and quality — facilities with sparse or outdated CCTV infrastructure may need camera upgrades to achieve useful coverage.

Pricing

Protex AI does not publish standard pricing. Pricing based on number of cameras and facilities. Mid-market contracts typically start around $30,000 - $80,000 annually. Enterprise pricing negotiated.
