About us
Our history
2018 – A holiday home on a Greek island. Amidst winter’s silence, our journey began with a failure of technology: Stray cats weaving through an empty pool, triggering frantic alarms that reached all the way to Germany. When a stray cat can cause an international incident, a system lacks intelligence.
CAM-AI was born. At least as a vision.
Following years of deep-tech development and rigorous stress-testing, we moved beyond simple monitoring in 2024. Today, we empower industrial leaders to transform visual intelligence into operational success. By distinguishing critical defects from daily noise, we provide the control and stability that modern engineering demands.
