Keyfoods operates neighborhood grocery stores where theft, checkout activity, and customer incidents require attention throughout the day. Managing different loss prevention tasks across separate video systems made investigations more time-consuming and fragmented.
THE CHALLENGE
Three Tools. No Complete Picture.
Keyfoods used three separate video systems to manage different loss prevention tasks.
Investigating theft, reviewing checkout activity, and locating incident footage meant switching between systems to find the relevant information. This added time to investigations and made it harder to bring different pieces of evidence together.
Keyfoods needed one platform to bring its core detection and video investigation workflows together across its locations.
THE SOLUTION
One Platform for Detection and Investigation
Keyfoods retained its existing camera infrastructure and added Spacture AI to bring detection and video intelligence into one platform.
Instead of switching between separate systems for different tasks, teams gained a more unified workflow for identifying potential incidents and accessing relevant footage.
AI-Powered Detection
Teams can identify flagged activity and focus their attention on incidents that need review.
Integrated Video Search
A visual timeline helps teams find relevant footage without manually searching through multiple systems.
Connected Store Insights
Available store and traffic data can provide additional context for investigations and help teams identify recurring activity.
Bringing these workflows together gives Keyfoods a more consistent way to manage investigations without replacing its existing cameras.
THE RESULTS
Three Systems. One Platform. Less Time Reviewing Cases.
Consolidating video systems helped Keyfoods simplify its loss prevention workflow and reduce the time spent moving between tools.
The reported results include:
