Czym zajmuje się Protex AI

Tl;dr: We’re building software that monitors existing cameras in the port, logistics, and manufacturing industries to ensure compliance and identify safety issues. At Protex AI, we’re on a mission to protect the industrial workforce! We’re building a proactive computer vision tool for workplace safety - empowering industrial Health and Safety (HS) teams to identify risk and danger before it becomes a problem. 🤕 The Problem: Keeping people safe at work is extremely hard. In the U.S. alone, there were over 5,000 deaths in the workplace in 2019, mainly in the heavy industry space. Serious workplace injuries cost U.S. businesses circa $62 Billion annually. Until now, safety has been reactive, someone has to get injured, and in some cases fatally before something is done about it. ✅ Problem Solved: Protex AI’s platform uses privacy-preserving camera monitoring software to provide companies with an always-on guardian angel, protecting their workforce. The platform plugs into existing CCTV infrastructure and enables HS teams to flexibly translate their document-based safety rules into the real world. Protex AI takes these rules and autonomously audits the customer’s facility to identify areas of high risk and non-compliance. HS teams can access this data via a reporting engine and use it in weekly safety meetings, external safety audits, insurance discussions, and legal claims. The tool integrates seamlessly with existing safety workflows to augment data produced by any manual incident logging system in place.

Computer vision that makes the industrial workplace, safer

What is your company going to make? Please describe your product and what it does or will do.

We build software that monitors existing security cameras in industrial settings like ports, logistics hubs, and factories to detect safety issues and compliance violations before accidents happen. Our platform translates health and safety rules into computer vision audits, alerting HS teams to risks using the customer's own CCTV infrastructure. It fits into safety workflows and helps reduce workplace injuries by proactively identifying hazards instead of reacting after incidents.

Where do you live now, and where would the company be based after YC?

We're based in Limerick, County Limerick, Ireland, and after YC we would remain based there.

Explain your decision regarding location.

We're rooted in Limerick and have built strong ties to the local industrial sectors here. Our product is designed for the kinds of heavy industry and logistics companies common in our region, so being where our early customers and knowledge base are makes us more effective.
