Lumana
Lumana is an enterprise AI video security company that turns ordinary IP cameras into real-time monitoring, detection and response systems. Founded in 2021 by former Intel computer-vision leaders and based in Los Gatos, California, Lumana pairs its proprietary VIA-1 vision model with vision language models and agentic AI to run analytics on more than a billion images a day - flagging weapons, fires, falls and unauthorized access, cutting false alerts, and letting security teams search footage across 100+ attributes. The company raised a $40M Series A in 2025, bringing total funding to $64M, and counts McDonald's, Meta, the Minnesota Twins and NYU among its customers.
Umbo Computer Vision
Umbo Computer Vision is a San Francisco and Taipei based startup building autonomous video security systems that use deep learning to watch camera feeds the way a human guard would - flagging intrusions, tailgating and wall-scaling in real time while ignoring birds, cats and weather. Founded in 2014 by Shawn Guan, Ping-Lin Chang and Tingfan Wu, the company pairs its SmartDome camera hardware with a neural-net engine called Light and a cloud platform, and has raised roughly $17.6M to sell mostly through security integrators to businesses, schools and public-safety customers.
Monarch
Monarch is a San Francisco based reseller and deployment partner for cloud-managed physical security and connected-operations technology. As an authorized Verkada reseller and Samsara channel partner, it designs and installs AI-powered camera systems, access control, environmental sensors, and fleet dash-cam and GPS telematics for schools, hospitals, warehouses, construction sites, and multi-site enterprises. The pitch is enterprise-grade security without the NVR/DVR complexity - hardware that updates over the air and is managed from a single cloud dashboard.
Hirsch Group (fka Vitaprotech)
Hirsch Group (formerly Vitaprotech Group) is a France-based provider of premium, integrated physical-security systems for sensitive and high-security sites. Built by rolling up specialist companies - perimeter-intrusion pioneer Sorhea, access-control firm TIL Technologies, video-analytics maker Foxstream, UK detection specialist Harper Chalice, and others - it made its biggest leap in 2024 by acquiring the security business of U.S. firm Identiv for about $145 million, which brought the iconic Hirsch access-control brand into the fold. In 2026 the whole group unified under a single name, Hirsch, spanning command-and-control (PSIM), access control, video intelligence, credentials, door readers, and perimeter protection, with roughly $185M in revenue and 700+ employees.
Deep Sentinel
Deep Sentinel is a Pleasanton, California security company that pairs proprietary AI with live human guards to stop crime while it is happening rather than document it after the fact. Its cameras use computer vision to filter out harmless motion and surface genuine threats to remote 'LiveSentinel' guards, who intervene through two-way audio and a 100+ dB siren within seconds and escalate to police with verified, crime-in-progress information. The company sells to both homeowners and businesses and has expanded into a Bring Your Own Camera program that works with major third-party camera brands.
Matroid
Matroid is a Palo Alto computer vision company that lets anyone build, train, and deploy custom object detectors without writing code. Founded in 2016 by Stanford professor and former Databricks founding-team member Reza Zadeh, its platform turns ordinary camera feeds into searchable, alert-generating systems that spot objects, people, defects, events, and safety violations in real time, across cloud, on-premise, and edge deployments. Matroid is used across manufacturing, aerospace, automotive, electronics, and video security to automate quality inspection and monitoring.
Hakimo
Hakimo is a San Francisco-based AI security company founded by Stanford researchers Sam Joseph and Sagar Honnungar. The company builds autonomous AI agents that monitor physical security infrastructure - cameras, badge readers, access control systems - in real time, detecting threats and responding with automated talk-downs before incidents escalate. Serving over 400 properties across construction, automotive, self-storage, corporate offices, and higher education, Hakimo has raised $20.5 million in total funding and delivers a 60% reduction in security incidents for its customers.
Spot AI
Spot AI builds a video intelligence platform and AI camera system that turns ordinary security footage into real-time, searchable intelligence. Through cloud-managed cameras, an intelligent NVR, and Video AI Agents, it helps manufacturers, retailers, schools, and logistics operators detect incidents, automate responses, and pull insights from millions of hours of camera feeds.
Coram AI
Coram AI is a Sunnyvale-based AI video security platform that transforms existing IP camera infrastructure into an intelligent security operation. Founded in 2022 by two PhD-holding ex-Lyft autonomous driving engineers, Coram replaces outdated, hardware-locked surveillance systems with a cloud-native platform featuring natural language video search, real-time AI threat detection, access control integration, and emergency management — all without requiring customers to rip out their existing cameras. The company serves industries from healthcare and education to manufacturing and warehousing, and in January 2025 raised a $13.8M Series A led by Battery Ventures.
