A startup that uses AI and computer vision to detect and prevent workplace accidents has just secured $12 million in strategic funding from Rite Hite. San Francisco-based Voxel, which launched in 2020, allows companies to integrate its AI tool into their security cameras. "Despite the rapid advancements in AI and computer vision, their potential remained largely untapped in ensuring workplace safety," said Alex Senemar, cofounder and CEO of Voxel. The startup's AI tool also integrates with existing security camera infrastructures, so companies don't have to buy new equipment. It provides tiered pricing, as well as analytics on workplace safety, so corporations can assess how to create a safer setting for workers.
