Privacy-first video analytics

Video analytics designed around local processing and limited data movement.

What it means

Privacy-first video analytics keeps raw video under the site owner's control by default and moves only structured event data or policy-approved clips when needed.

Why it matters

Where video goes determines the privacy review. Local processing gives IT, legal, labor, and security teams clearer control over sensitive footage.

Evaluation questions

Does raw video leave the site?

Who approves clip export and retention?

Can the deployment run without cloud video streaming?
