Palantir is a US based tech company that has raised over $2 billion in funding and works primarily with US government entities to do big data analysis.
Someone told me recently that they were analyzing surveillance video. That is not surprising, given that they obviously analyze a lot of information and video surveillance would certainly be one type for their customer base.

Not alot out there about their video.
With their valuation and the money they've raised, no doubt they make Giant Gray Green with envy.

A trove of internal documents and insider interviews has pulled back the curtain on one of Silicon Valley’s most secretive and highly valued companies, Palantir Technologies. Started in part with CIA money, the data-analysis company promised that its software would revolutionize everything from espionage to consumer businesses, and it has grown in both revenue and employees. But the documents and interviews show that Palantir has also lost blue-chip clients, is struggling to stem staff departures, and has recorded revenue that is just a fraction of its customer bookings.
Over the last 13 months, at least three top-tier corporate clients have walked away, including Coca-Cola, American Express, and Nasdaq, according to internal documents. Palantir mines data to help companies make more money, but clients have balked at its high prices that can exceed $1 million per month, expressed doubts that its software can produce valuable insights over time, and even experienced difficult working relationships with Palantir’s young engineers. Palantir insiders have bemoaned the “low-vision” clients who decide to take their business elsewhere.

Palantir has been saying they are going to have video component to their system. Sounded more like a VMS element more than anything. A central hug to pull live video feeds.
That was a few years back which nothing came out of it.
They seemed much more interested in pursuing the data mining for their corporate clients.
