Key Features

Whatever the camera platform, FortifAI fuses high-performance AI with seamless system integration to ease operator load, uncover hidden threats, and speed up critical decisions when seconds count.

Operational in Hours, Not Years

Get from concept to deployment up to 50x faster than traditional AI development — with tech that's proven beyond the lab and ready for real-world missions.

Privacy-First, Mission-Ready

Supports on-device processing and behavioural anonymisation, keeping sensitive data local and aligned with GDPR and operational ethics — without sacrificing performance.

Human-Centric Automation

Automates the grind, not the judgement. FortifAI reduces operator load and fatigue, letting teams focus on critical thinking, not constant watching.

Seamless Integration, Zero Lock-In

Plug-and-play with existing sensors, comms, ML models, and infrastructure. Works across low-SWaP edge and server-class platforms without locking you into proprietary ecosystems.

Real-Time Multi-Sensor Threat Intelligence

Fuses optical, radar, RF and other inputs for context-rich, low-false-positive threat detection. Enhances confidence in alerts when decisions matter most.

Proven Across Domains and Environments

Deployed globally on uncrewed air, land, sea, and long-range surveillance systems — FortifAI adapts to your mission profile, not the other way around.

Use Cases

AI in Action: Proven Deployments

Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV) Automation

FortifAI reduces pilot workload and boosts threat detection through a tightly integrated suite of visual AI capabilities. Whether deployed onboard an unmanned system, embedded in a drone dock, or linked to a ground controller, it delivers real-time geolocation of potential threats over land or sea, without GNSS, and can trigger automatic evasion when an interceptor is detected.

The Vizgard and Parrot combination has been very well received by our end users. Collaborating with Vizgard allowed us to consistently meet our tight project deadlines.

Long-range Security

FortifAI provides automated control of steerable long-range visible and thermal cameras to support surveillance at border, coastal and critical infrastructure sites. Tasks typically managed by centralised command and control systems, such as intelligent guard tours, automatic investigation and slewing to radar or RF tracks, can be offloaded to edge-AI nodes for faster, distributed and comms-resilient response. FortifAI also improves effective range through electronic stabilisation and real-time enhancement in fog, mist, smoke and other low-contrast environments.

“Vizgard impressed us during the first live demo at our test site, and we are in the early stages of working collaboratively on some of our projects.”

Uncrewed Surface Vessel (USV) Automation

FortifAI enables advanced autonomy on USVs by analysing multiple EO/IR camera feeds in real time to detect and track maritime objects such as speedboats, warships and buoys. Using NMEA-standard position data, it calculates true bearings and displays an augmented view with relative distance and AIS call signs. The system can autonomously follow or evade targets based on predefined rules (e.g. proximity or threat behaviour), or accept remote commands via satellite comms. All processing is done at the edge, reducing latency, conserving bandwidth and ensuring reliable operation in communication-denied environments.

We evaluated several low-latency computer vision solutions and chose Vizgard for our UAV and USV platforms. Their software, development approach, and mission-first mindset outperformed both SMEs and larger firms. Under pressure, Alex and the Vizgard team consistently deliver and lead in this field.

Airspace situational awareness

When integrated into a multi-sensor system such as a counter-drone solution or an unmanned traffic management platform, FortifAI can automatically steer multiple distributed cameras to visually confirm and differentiate between birds, drones, planes and helicopters. It estimates their approximate position and trajectory in 3D space, enhancing situational awareness and supporting real-time decision-making.

Vizgard were an integral part of the Skyway consortium. They are building pioneering technology important to establishing a unique, comprehensive surveillance airspace picture. We look forward to continuing to work together to enhance the technology and develop and strengthen our commercial relationship.

Perimeter Security

FortifAI provides a distributed edge-AI solution for automated control of steerable, long-range visible and thermal cameras. It automatically detects and tracks threats such as armed individuals or suspicious vehicles, while managing tasks that would normally require centralised command-and-control systems, including intelligent guard tours and automatic slew-to-cue investigations of radar or RF tracks. Multi-PTZ collaboration ensures faster responses and continuous, accurate visibility across borders, coastlines, and critical infrastructure sites.

When Vizgard first approached us in 2021, we were skeptical of AI after underwhelming results from other providers. However, Vizgard's AI exceeded our expectations. In live trials, our long-range EO/IR cameras with Vizgard AI classified people and vehicles at nearly 2 kilometers and even detected armed individuals. Vizgard is now a trusted partner, and we have recently used their AI to safeguard the perimeter of a major international airport.
