The Challenge

A major retail chain with 120+ stores across Canada faced an estimated $12M annual shrinkage problem. Traditional CCTV systems required enormous manpower to review footage and could only report incidents after the fact, making real-time prevention impossible.

Our Approach

We architected a real-time computer vision platform built on edge-computing nodes installed directly in each store. The system uses advanced convolutional neural networks (CNNs) trained on proprietary shoplifting behavior datasets to identify and flag suspicious activity within milliseconds — sending instant alerts to loss prevention staff without requiring central cloud processing.

The Impact

Beyond the direct 45% reduction in shrinkage, the platform freed up over 2,000 hours per month previously spent reviewing CCTV footage, allowing loss prevention teams to focus on proactive strategies. The client also saw a dramatic improvement in store morale and customer experience as incidents were handled more discretely and effectively.

Project Timeline

1
Phase 1

Data Audit & Model Training

Collected 6 months of historical CCTV footage. Labeled and trained initial detection models on over 50,000 annotated shoplifting events.

2
Phase 2

Edge Infrastructure Deployment

Installed edge computing nodes across 120 stores without disrupting daily operations. Integrated with existing CCTV hardware.

3
Phase 3

Real-time Monitoring & Optimization

Activated live alerting. Ran a continuous feedback loop to retrain models monthly, improving accuracy from 87% to 97%.
