About Pixuate 

Pixuate by Cocoslabs Innovative Solutions Pvt. Ltd. is an intelligent video analytics platform startup that uses proprietary algorithms in AI, Deep Learning, and Computer Vision to deliver real-time and actionable insights from high-volume video and image data.

Pixuate Team

Problem(s) that Pixuate is addressing: 

Manufacturing companies manage a large set of security-risk variables. Many of these businesses still rely on legacy systems that require human decision-making which is expensive and of low accuracy due to human-dependent errors. There is a need for an efficient AI driven CCTV feed analytics and response system (CFAR) that provides a fool- proof mechanism to operate at a highly efficient response and action rate. 

Toll Plazas need Automatic Vehicle Classifier (AVC ) systems to count vehicles at every toll and a robust auditing mechanism to maintain accurate track of vehicles and the type of vehicles, this requires identifying the vehicle type. The volume of vehicles also needs to be identified by the highway maintenance contractors. 

Solution that Pixuate is providing: 

Pixuate Plant360 offers 4 main suite of products: 

  • 360 Security: Reliable 24*7 surveillance 
  • 360 Safety: End-to-end safety compliance 
  • 360 Ops Maintenance: Control & Monitor Shop Floors 
  • 360 Visitor Management: Automate & Secure external entry 

The USP of the platform is that it is designed and built considering the core value proposition of large and small Indian companies making it a retrofittable plug-and-play platform that can be integrated with existing HRMS, BPM & ERP platforms to transform Monitoring, Safety, and Efficiency at scale with efficiency. 

Founder’s Details – 

Prathvi Palekar, Founder & CEO At Pixuate – A passionate entrepreneur and technocrat on a mission to build the smartest computer vision platform. Founded Pixuate and led the business to acquire 20+ B2B marquee customers, while also establishing partnerships in UAE, US and India and winning the Yes Scale Competition. 

Akshata Kari, Co-Founder & COO – Akshata completed her MBA from India’s premier university Institute of Rural Management Anand (IRMA), Previously spearheaded Business Development endeavors for Barrix, a top agri-startup based out of India, and led startup accelerator programs & investment portfolio of India’s topmost accelerator CIIE-IIM Ahmedabad and Technoserve. As the COO of Pixuate she manages business operations and investor relations. 

About the market Potential in this at space: 

  • There are around 6,000 enterprise customers in India. On average, enterprise customers would spend INR 15 Lakhs per year on Video Analytics requirements. 
  • 100 smart cities have been announced by the Govt. of India and another 100 smart cities are in the pipeline – considering that 5% of total budget allocated for AI analytics. 

In lieu of the above facts, we are looking at an addressable market of INR 2,000 Crore per annum in India alone and we plan to capture 5% of this market within the next 2 years. 

The global video surveillance market is expected to grow from USD 45.5 billion in 2020 to USD 74.6 billion by 2025, at a CAGR of 10.4%. And some of the major players in the field of AI-driven visual analytics (IBM, Aviva, C3.ai etc.) have expensive offerings which are also infeasible for most Indian business requirements.
