Computer vision · Image and video analysis

Computer Vision Services that turn images into decisions

We build computer vision systems that find actionable information in image and video data. Tasks that take people hours of looking, image after image, run in seconds and at a consistent standard. We scope the problem with you, develop a custom model and integrate it with your existing infrastructure.

  • Image analysis tasks automated in seconds, not hours
  • Custom models built around your data and process
  • Integrated with your systems and maintained after launch
  • 57% of our team hold a PhD
  • German company, working under the GDPR

What you gain

What computer vision changes for your business

Computer vision pays off where people currently inspect, count, sort or read visual material by hand.

Higher, more consistent quality

Automated classification, detection and tracking catch defects and deviations that manual inspection misses, and apply the same standard to every image.

Lower cost of manual work

Automated segmentation, data extraction and image labelling take repetitive work off your teams, reduce errors and let people focus on tasks that need judgement.

Insight into behaviour and operations

Video analysis and image recognition show how customers, vehicles and crowds move, so you can refine layouts, staffing and marketing on evidence.

What we deliver

Our computer vision capabilities

We cover the full path from consulting and development to integration and maintenance, across these core techniques.

  1. 01

    Image recognition, classification and segmentation

    Models that identify what an image shows, sort it into categories and separate it into regions, from anomaly detection to counting and inspection.

  2. 02

    Object detection, tracking and labelling

    Automatically detect, label and follow objects across video and image series for inventory management, vehicle tracking and security monitoring.

  3. 03

    Advanced video analysis

    Real-time analysis of video streams to detect trends, anomalies and patterns, plus automated video tagging, movement monitoring and video summarisation.

  4. 04

    Optical character recognition

    Extract printed and handwritten text from documents, images and video for document digitisation, content indexing and automated data entry.

  5. 05

    Visual search

    Image recognition models that find products or similar images in large databases, powering catalogues, search and recommendation engines.

  6. 06

    Pose estimation

    Deep learning that estimates human poses from images and video to improve ergonomics in manufacturing, retail store layouts and fitness tracking.

  7. 07

    Face recognition and biometrics

    Analysis of facial features for identity verification and access control, and development of biometric products.

  8. 08

    Image annotation and measurement

    Annotate key features and measurements on images, such as distances between facial landmarks, so they can be analysed and compared.

  9. 09

    Image generation and custom GANs

    Generative adversarial networks and text-to-image systems that create synthetic images, upscale them, restore missing parts and augment training data.

Not sure which of these you need? Describe the problem and we will recommend the approach.

Why AI Superior

Research-grade AI, delivered like a product company

Many vendors can build a demo. Making AI work reliably on real data, inside real business processes, is the hard part, and it needs a different kind of team.

01

A research-led team

AI Superior was founded in 2019 by AI researchers with published papers and patents, and the whole team works to that research standard.

  • PhD57%
  • MSc28%
  • BSc15%
Team by highest degree
02

Built to reach production

Every project is de-risked in stages, with a go/no-go decision at each milestone, so budget only goes into approaches that have worked on your data.

4× our proof-of-concept success rate compared with the market average
03

A complete team from day one

Strategy, models and software are designed by one team, so nothing gets lost in hand-overs between vendors.

  • Product AI product owner, business analyst, project manager
  • Data Data scientists, ML engineers, BI analyst
  • Development Software engineers, QA, DevOps
04

Your data stays under control

When data must not leave your organisation, we build on private, self-hosted models instead of third-party AI services.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

Something else on your mind? Ask us directly.

How can computer vision benefit our business?

It automates image analysis tasks such as classification, detection and tracking, which improves product quality. Automated segmentation, extraction and labelling reduce costs and errors. Surveillance applications strengthen security, and image recognition helps you understand customer behaviour and preferences.

Do you build custom solutions or use off-the-shelf products?

We build custom solutions. Off-the-shelf computer vision products often lack the features a specific process needs or cost more than they return. We start with detailed discussions about your goals and challenges, then develop a solution that fits them.

What does a computer vision project involve?

We gather your requirements, then collect and prepare the data for training and testing. Next we design and train the model and evaluate its accuracy. Once it performs as required, we integrate it into your existing infrastructure and provide ongoing support, maintenance and updates.

Can you help if we are not sure computer vision fits our problem?

Yes. Our computer vision consulting starts by understanding your needs, determining whether and how computer vision can help you reach your goals, and agreeing a strategy for implementing it before any development begins.

Can the system work with video as well as still images?

Yes. We analyse video streams in real time to detect trends, anomalies and patterns, and build applications such as object tracking, movement monitoring, automated video tagging and video summarisation.

How do you protect the privacy and security of image data?

We use encryption and access control and follow strict data-handling practices, including GDPR requirements. Where people appear in images but are not the subject of analysis, privacy can be designed in, as in our workplace hygiene project, where images containing people are dropped before processing.
