Case Study: CompScience achieves real-time workplace safety analytics with Viam

CompScience automates video uploads in minutes with Viam, replacing 3–9 days of manual coordination

CompScience, an AI-powered workplace safety analytics company, faced a significant operational bottleneck in scaling its service. Their process of manually retrieving hundreds of hours of video footage from client sites for analysis was slow and cumbersome, taking up to nine days and requiring extensive oversight from both client IT teams and their own Customer Success Engineers. This hindered their goal of moving from periodic safety reports to real-time hazard detection. To overcome this infrastructure challenge, CompScience partnered with vendor Viam.

Using Viam's modular robotics platform, CompScience built an automated Video Management System (VMS). The Viam-powered solution provided automated camera discovery, continuous local recording, and intelligent, scheduled uploads that completed in minutes instead of days. This automation eliminated manual data logistics, allowing CompScience to offer daily insights and real-time alerts. The results included a complete elimination of manual video export workloads for clients and the ability for companies to make immediate safety interventions, significantly improving workplace safety and operational efficiency.
