Shoplifting Behavior Detection

Identify concealment patterns, bag stuffing, tag removal, and suspicious browsing behavior in real time. ElectricEye distinguishes between normal shopping activity and genuine theft indicators that traditional cameras miss.

Employee Harassment Monitoring

Detect aggressive customer-to-employee confrontations, verbal escalation body language, and threatening postures. Alert management before situations escalate into physical incidents or require law enforcement response.

Aggressive Customer Alerts

Recognize aggressive behavior patterns including intimidating posturing, counter confrontations, and altercations between customers. Enable staff to intervene with de-escalation before incidents impact store safety.

Organized Retail Crime (ORC) Pattern Recognition

Detect coordinated theft rings, sweep operations, and distraction-based theft tactics used by organized groups. ORC accounts for $69.9 billion in annual retail losses according to NRF 2023 data.

Checkout Fraud Detection

Monitor self-checkout areas and POS stations for ticket switching, scan avoidance, and pass-around techniques. Behavioral AI identifies fraud patterns that standard loss prevention systems cannot detect.

Fitting Room Safety Monitoring

Detect concerning behaviors near fitting room areas including product staging for theft, extended occupancy anomalies, and safety incidents. Protect both merchandise and customer well-being without invasive surveillance.

After-Hours Security

After-Hours Store and Perimeter Security

When your store closes, ElectricEye shifts to break-in detection, loading dock monitoring, and parking lot security. Continuous AI coverage through the overnight hours when your facility is most vulnerable to burglary and vandalism.

Break-In Attempt Detection

Detect forced entry attempts, glass breaking, door tampering, and lock manipulation at all store entry points. Context-aware AI distinguishes between authorized after-hours access and genuine intrusion attempts.

Loading Dock Theft Monitoring

Monitor receiving areas and loading docks for unauthorized access, merchandise diversion, and overnight pilferage. Detect when delivery staging areas are accessed outside of scheduled receiving windows.

Parking Lot Safety

Identify loitering, vehicle break-ins, and suspicious activity in parking lots and surrounding areas during closed hours. Protect employees arriving for early shifts and departing after late closes.

Perimeter Breach Alerts

Detect fence climbing, gate tampering, and unauthorized vehicle access around your entire store perimeter. Eliminate false alarms from wildlife, weather debris, and normal pedestrian traffic.

Stockroom Unauthorized Access

Monitor back-of-house areas, stockrooms, and high-value merchandise storage for unauthorized entry during closed hours. Detect internal theft patterns and access outside of approved schedules.

Overnight Facility Security

Continuous AI monitoring across your entire store footprint from close to open. Virtual guard coverage that detects threats in real time at a fraction of the cost of overnight security personnel.

We rolled out ElectricEye across eight of our highest-shrink locations. Within the first two weeks, the system flagged organized theft patterns that our LP team had been trying to identify for months. The behavioral detection caught concealment techniques and coordinated sweeps that traditional cameras simply recorded but never alerted on. Our after-hours break-in attempts dropped to zero within the first 45 days.
