We believe knowledge about the world around us shouldn’t stay locked inside the video footage that already holds it.
And once someone unlocks it, nobody should have to unlock it again.
Cities, and the businesses and operators who share the same streets, sit on camera networks that watch everything and report almost nothing. Every new thing that needs tracking, detecting or measuring has meant a new vendor or a custom machine-learning project.
So we build a library that grows itself. Every question one person asks becomes an instrument everyone inherits — built by our engineers with agents, reviewed and secured before it ships.
What one question builds, the next one inherits.
What compounds is the library. An analytic our engineers build for one question is reviewed and secured before it joins, and from then on it is there for the next question like it, whoever asks.
The instruments are shared; the measurements never are.
Helixe is helix, evolving — named for a shape that keeps its form while it grows.
The tools for understanding video keep improving. For a public agency or a business, that has usually meant living with an old system or replacing it with a new one. Helixe is built so you don’t have to choose.
When a better model or technique comes along, a person on our team clears it before anything uses it, and our engineers build with it. Your cameras stay yours, what you’ve set up keeps running, and the answers can get better.
