There're no discussions on HN about this company; I would think there would be, especially with concerns about the surveillance technology industry eg Flock. (There are threads about 'Spatial AI' and 'Spatial intelligence'.)

I never heard about this company until reviewing a (unicorn-seeking) job listing on their ATS. Then saw the following post on Reddit from a concerned worker at a company that started rolling-out this product/service: https://www.reddit.com/r/legaladviceaustralia/comments/1ubnh...

This company started business in 2024. (Founded 2023?) Here's a supposed interview with the founder[3].

A piece on [2] laughably begins with "retail employees are empowered" by using these devices. (Side-note: I'm suspicious [2] and [3] are, in part, AI-generated content -farms.)
