The watchful AI that never sleeps: Hakimo’s $10.5M bet on autonomous security
1 min read
Summary
Hakimo, an AI start-up that develops autonomous security monitoring platforms, has raised $10.5m in series A funding to expand its business.
Its flagship AI Operator offers real-time threat detection and response protocols, and can be linked to existing security cameras and hardware, eliminating the need for human intervention.
The company plans to target property management, car dealerships, construction sites and campuses as it seeks to become the “universal platform for intelligent video monitoring”.
Hakimo’s growth comes as physical security faces challenges such as police departments declining to attend unverified alarms and rising costs of manned guarding.
The start-up’s technology prevented thousands of incidents and assisted law enforcement in multiple arrests last year.
