Lexius turns existing security cameras into an AI security guard that detects, documents, and alerts incidents like shoplifting and slip-and-falls.
Millions of locations already have cameras but no intelligence. Replacing them costs $50K to $100K per site. Lexius upgrades every camera instantly, no rip and replace, no new hardware.
Real-world camera systems are messy, fragmented, and decades old, and AI breaks on low-quality CCTV. The hard part isn’t the model, it’s making unreliable systems work at scale with accuracy high enough for real decisions.
Lexius starts with security and liability, and becomes the operating system for physical spaces.

Buildings with security cameras generate thousands of hours of footage, but:
No one has time to review it
Investigations take days of scrubbing video
Critical moments get missed
Legacy systems are hard to access and impossible to scale
Security cameras generate video. They don’t generate answers.
