About Dan Hobbs
Hey there! My name is Dan, it's nice to meet you! I am the co founder and CEO of Protex AI. We provide proactive AI vision for workplace safety. I love to network and meet new people so get in touch for a virtual coffee to talk about all things start up!
Companies & Work
Protex AI
Tl;dr: We’re building software that monitors existing cameras in the port, logistics, and manufacturing industries to ensure compliance and identify safety issues.
At Protex AI, we’re on a mission to protect the industrial workforce! We’re building a proactive computer vision tool for workplace safety - empowering industrial Health and Safety (HS) teams to identify risk and danger before it becomes a problem.
🤕 The Problem:
Keeping people safe at work is extremely hard. In the U.S. alone, there were over 5,000 deaths in the workplace in 2019, mainly in the heavy industry space.
Serious workplace injuries cost U.S. businesses circa $62 Billion annually. Until now, safety has been reactive, someone has to get injured, and in some cases fatally before something is done about it.
✅ Problem Solved:
Protex AI’s platform uses privacy-preserving camera monitoring software to provide companies with an always-on guardian angel, protecting their workforce.
The platform plugs into existing CCTV infrastructure and enables HS teams to flexibly translate their document-based safety rules into the real world.
Protex AI takes these rules and autonomously audits the customer’s facility to identify areas of high risk and non-compliance.
HS teams can access this data via a reporting engine and use it in weekly safety meetings, external safety audits, insurance discussions, and legal claims.
The tool integrates seamlessly with existing safety workflows to augment data produced by any manual incident logging system in place.
