Software cloud service providing highly reliable information about traffic and other happening under the surveillance cameras via artificial intelligence.

Self-service platform providing an easy and an affordable access to interactive and lightweight, rich media and video banners.

Traditional tools for traffic data analysis are unreliable, time consuming, expensive, insecure and do not contain any behavioural information.

The most popular technology for building rich media ads is not well optimised for video and animation. Some of the major issues are weight, loading time, SEO challenges and browser incompatibility.
