Protex AI

Overview

Protex AI is an AI-powered workplace safety platform that uses computer vision on existing CCTV to detect safety risks in real-time. It provides predictive analytics, automated reporting, and compliance workflows to help EHS teams prevent incidents and improve operational safety.

Official FAQ

What is Industrial AI?

Industrial AI applies AI such as computer vision and Generative AI to physical operations. It identifies patterns across site activity, such as vehicle movement, congestion, throughput, and safety risk, then turns them into dashboards, reports, and recommended actions. Unlike generic AI tools, it is built for real-world industrial environments like factories, warehouses, and logistics sites.

How is Industrial AI different from a safety AI tool?

Safety AI tools detect and report specific safety events. Industrial AI fuses those signals with operational context — including flow, downtime, asset utilisation, and layout — so teams can see how risk and performance interact. Protex AI supports safety outcomes while also giving Operations, EHS, IT, and executive teams a single layer of site evidence to act from.

Does Protex AI work with our existing cameras and systems?

Yes. Protex AI connects to existing CCTV infrastructure via RTSP - there's no need to replace hardware. The edge device handles all video processing on-site. For a standard 5-camera setup running at 1080p and 10 FPS, you need around 7 Mb/s of internal bandwidth and roughly 1.6 GB/day of outbound bandwidth for event uploads.

Is Protex AI safe for worker privacy?

Yes. Event detection, blurring, and encryption happen locally on edge devices, and raw CCTV footage does not stream off-site. Relevant clips are anonymised before they appear in cloud dashboards. Protex AI is designed to surface site patterns and process deviations, not to evaluate, score, or discipline individual workers.

How is Industrial AI different from traditional automation?

Automation executes a defined task using fixed logic. Industrial AI identifies patterns, exceptions, and root causes across the wider site that a fixed process cannot see, such as recurring congestion or shift-level variation. The two are complementary: Industrial AI shows where and why performance changes, so teams know what to improve.

What is site intelligence?

Site intelligence is the data layer that converts operational complexity into clear, immediate action. Protex Intelligence fuses every signal your site already generates, from cameras, systems of record, and equipment sensors, into one connected view, then finds the patterns and delivers leading indicators, root cause context, and recommended actions to every team.
