Actuate (formerly Aegis AI) Gun Detection Video Analytics Startup

By: Sean Patton, Published on May 07, 2019

Gun detection analytic startups are increasing as the promise of AI and the threats of active shooters grow.

One company, Actuate (formerly Aegis AI), is being led by a Marine Corps Veteran Sonny Tai, who aims to use his experience in the military to help solve this problem.

We spoke to Aegis, to better understand their gun detection first approach, go-to-market, and how they position their video analytics in campus environments.

In this note we look at:

  • Who is Aegis
  • What Type of Video Analytics
  • What Customers is Aegis Targeting
  • How Much Does It Cost
  • What is Aegis Go-To-Market
  • Developing Image Datasets
