Why bet on Computer Vision and Safari AI?
1. Huge opportunity hiding in plain sight: leveraging already-installed cameras to automate and real-time action on operational data
2. Large chasm between customer knowledge and market availability, i.e. customers don't know what is available in the market...yet.
3. No clear industry leader in computer vision; everyone is small and unbranded (i.e. no Amazon or Google in the room to compete with)
4. Very modular, allowing Safari AI and its customers to invent whole new use cases on a regular basis
5. Developed the tech and data pipelines over three years and invested several million dollars and is now ready to scale
6. Already the market leader in enterprise CV by working with industry leaders with billions in revenue
