Everseen and Google Cloud are partnering on a Vision AI offering for retail stores.
The companies will combine Everseen's Vision AI platform with Google Distribute Cloud and Google's Vertex AI platform.
Google Distributed Cloud is Google's Edge and on-premise cloud offering. Launched in October 2021, it brings Google's cloud services to a customer's chosen location.
The Everseen Vision AI platform uses 120,000 Edge AI endpoints and each day processes nearly six petabytes of video data in real time and more than 150 million real-time events. The platform will now be fully integrated with Google Cloud, and available via the Google Cloud Marketplace.
"Our goal is to provide Vision AI solutions that drive measurable results for retailers— reducing shrink, enhancing customer engagement, and minimizing waste," said Alan O'Herlihy, founder and CEO of Everseen. "Google Cloud's robust support across hardware and software enable us to meet retailers' needs from store entry to checkout. Together, we are helping retailers modernize their operations and achieve measurable results—while delivering seamless, scalable solutions for retailers worldwide."
In addition to being available via the Google Distributed Cloud, which can be deployed at a retail store location, Everseen will be integrating Google Cloud's Vertex AI Platform for access to the latest AI models and to scale AI product development.
"Bringing the power of our Edge computing capabilities, together with Everseen's cutting-edge Vision AI platform, gives retailers end-to-end visibility across operations to identify the source of inventory loss and make data-driven decisions that enhance the shopping experience," said Jose Gomes, managing director, Retail Customers, Google Cloud. "This collaboration helps retailers make data-driven decisions that improve the bottom line and elevate the shopping journey."
This year has also seen Google Cloud expanding its partnership with Formula E, with the former now serving as Formula E's Official Cloud Technology Services Partner and Official Cloud Security Partner following its cloud migration.
