ForemanBecome a partner →The most accurate vision intelligence for the factory floor.
Foreman trains its own models for one job: understanding what happens on a real factory floor — fire, intrusion, PPE, machines, people — better than any general-purpose system. We measure them against the published state of the art, and we are publishing the benchmark and the paper.
General models fail on the factory floor
Most vision systems are built on detectors trained on clean web images. A real factory floor is the opposite of clean: dust and glare, night-mode infrared, motion blur, oblique camera angles, crowded frames, and the one event that matters hidden in a corner at 2 a.m.
We train for those conditions specifically — and for the events that actually matter on a floor, not for a web leaderboard.
- Real CCTV conditions: low light and IR night mode, dust, blur, oblique angles
- Factory-specific understanding: fire and smoke, PPE, machines, forklifts, people
- Tuned for the rare event that matters, not the average web image
Our own models, our own data
Foreman runs on its own models, built and trained in-house. We build our own training datasets — purpose-collected and curated for factory environments — because that is the only way to be the most accurate at this one thing.
And we never train on our customers' footage. Your video stays yours; the data that improves our models is data we own and curate, not the cameras we are trusted to watch.
- Models built and trained in-house, for factory floors
- Datasets curated for real factory conditions, not generic imagery
- We never train on customer footage — your data stays yours
Measured, not just claimed
Accuracy claims are easy to make and hard to prove, so we prove ours. We evaluate our models against the published state of the art on factory-relevant tasks — on both accuracy and the on-device latency that decides whether an alert arrives while it still matters.
We are publishing the benchmark and a paper so the numbers are open to scrutiny, not just asserted.
- Evaluated on accuracy and real-time on-device latency together
- Measured against published baselines, not internal cherry-picks
- Benchmark and paper: coming soon
Two checks before you are alerted
Detection runs on-site, every camera, every second. Each possible event then gets a second, more thorough confirmation before it ever becomes an alert. That is what keeps alerts rare and real — and gives you clear photo proof when one fires.
Where this is headed
Today Foreman watches for what matters most on a floor: fire, intrusion, PPE, idle machines, headcount. That is the beginning.
The models and datasets we are building now are the foundation for something larger — a video search engine for the physical world, where you ask your cameras a question in plain language and get an answer. Best-in-class detection is how we earn the right to build it.
Frequently asked
Do you train your models on my factory's footage?
No. We build and curate our own training datasets, and we never train on our customers' footage. Your video stays yours.
What makes your models more accurate than off-the-shelf detectors?
They are trained specifically for factory-floor conditions — low light and IR night mode, dust, motion blur, oblique CCTV angles — and for the events that matter on a floor, rather than for clean web images.
Will you publish your benchmark and results?
Yes. We measure our models against the published state of the art and are publishing both the benchmark and a paper, so the numbers can be checked rather than taken on trust.
Do the models run on-site or in the cloud?
Detection runs on-site on your own hardware. Only a short clip around a detected event leaves your premises, for a second confirmation, before you are alerted.
