AI that watches your textile floor, on the cameras you already have

Built for the way a mill actually runs

Spinning, weaving and garment units in Surat, Rajkot, Tiruppur and Ludhiana share the same headaches — large premises, three shifts, expensive stock on the floor, and machines that stop earning the moment they stop running. You cannot stand on the floor at 2 AM, and one guard cannot watch forty cameras at once.

Foreman watches all of them, all the time. It reads the feed from your existing Hikvision, CP Plus or Dahua DVR or NVR — any RTSP or ONVIF camera — and turns it into plain alerts on your phone. One prevented fire or one stopped theft can pay for years of Foreman.

• Works on the cameras and DVR you already own, no rip-and-replace
• Covers every camera continuously, across every shift
• Detection runs on-site; you get plain-language alerts, not raw footage

Early fire and smoke detection where lint makes it dangerous

Cotton dust, lint build-up and overloaded electrical points make textile units some of the most fire-prone floors in Indian manufacturing. A blaze in a godown full of yarn or finished fabric moves fast and can take the whole season's stock with it. Foreman watches your cameras for the first visible signs of smoke and flame and raises the alarm in seconds, with a photo so you can act before it spreads.

Foreman complements your fire-safety setup; it does not replace it. Keep your certified fire-alarm and life-safety systems in place. Foreman adds a fast visual early warning on top, across blind spots a ceiling unit never sees.

• Visual smoke and flame detection from your existing cameras
• Photo proof on Telegram plus a voice call the moment it triggers
• An early layer on top of, never a replacement for, certified fire systems

After-hours protection for yarn, fabric and finished goods

A mill or garment unit is a big, dark place once the last shift leaves, and the stock inside is worth a great deal. Foreman knows when your premises should be empty and flags any person or vehicle moving near your godown, loading bay or stock racks when no one should be there.

Set a plain rule like tell me about any movement after 8 PM near the yarn store, and Foreman handles the rest, with a photo and a call rather than a log entry you find in the morning.

• After-hours intrusion alerts around godowns, loading bays and stock
• Restricted-zone rules for areas that should stay off-limits
• Every event double-checked before it calls you, so alerts stay real

PPE, attendance and idle looms, full value per wage

Foreman checks PPE compliance on the floor — helmets and gear where you require them — so safety habits hold even when no supervisor is standing there. It counts heads and tracks attendance across shifts, so you know who actually turned up and when, not just what the register says.

It also watches whether machines are earning. Foreman infers visually whether a loom or line is running or stopped, flagging late starts, long changeovers and idle time you are paying wages for. You see where output is leaking, on a floor you can finally measure.

• PPE and helmet checks across the floor, every shift
• Headcount and attendance, real presence shift by shift
• Idle-loom and idle-time tracking: late starts, long changeovers, stopped lines

How it works

Install Foreman as a 60-second Windows program on a PC inside your unit. It connects to your DVR or NVR and starts watching — no new cameras, no wiring, no router changes. Detection runs on-site, and each event gets a second, more thorough check before it reaches you, which keeps false alarms down.

When something matters, you get a Telegram message with a photo and a voice call. Every morning you get a plain-language daily report. Write your own rules in plain Hindi or English, such as call me if a person enters the dyeing section after 9 PM, and Foreman follows them.

• 60-second install on an existing Windows PC and existing CCTV
• Alerts by Telegram photo and voice call, plus a daily report
• Custom rules in plain language: zone, time and event logic on top

Our own AI models, built for the factory floor

Foreman runs its own AI models, trained in-house for factory and warehouse conditions — dust, low light, crowded frames and the realities of an Indian mill floor. We hold ourselves to the published state of the art, and a benchmark and paper are coming.
