Foqus.live: AI Video Analytics for IP Cameras
Foqus.live turns your existing IP cameras into smart business intelligence tools, delivering real-time visitor analytics, heatmaps, and face recognition in the cloud.
Overview
Foqus.live is a cloud-based video analytics platform built specifically for offline, brick-and-mortar businesses that want to squeeze more value out of the security cameras they already own. Rather than requiring costly new hardware, Foqus layers AI-powered analytics on top of your existing IP camera network, transforming passive footage into actionable data about how customers move through and interact with your space.
The platform covers a wide range of operational insights, including visitor counting, service performance tracking, heatmap generation to visualize foot traffic patterns, and face recognition for repeat-visitor identification. This makes it especially useful across industries like retail, hospitality, manufacturing, and fitness, where understanding customer behavior and staff efficiency directly impacts the bottom line.
Because it runs entirely in the cloud and works with hardware you likely already have installed, Foqus.live lowers the barrier to entry for businesses that want data-driven decision-making without a full security system overhaul.
