AI for retail stores,
your data stays in-store.
Footfall, queues, heatmaps, and loss prevention from your own cameras, plus an assistant for sales and store ops, all running on your infrastructure.
Most stores run on gut feel and last week's numbers. We turn the cameras and data you already have into decisions you can act on today.
Two layers over one store
The sales floor and the back office, each powered by a different product, working the same store from a different angle.
Read the sales floor as it happens
NIST-tested camera analytics count footfall, measure checkout queues, and map shopper heatmaps across the store, with every detection processed in-store so customer video never leaves your premises.

Turn store data into the day's actions
An auditable assistant reads across sales, inventory, footfall, and store policies, then answers managers in plain language and drafts the daily action list, each answer sourced back to its origin.
- Sales & inventory answers
- Store-ops playbook
- Sourced & auditable
What it does in the store
Loss Prevention
Flag suspicious activity and shrinkage at checkout and on the shelf as it happens, so teams step in during the moment instead of finding the loss at the next stock-take. It reads behaviour, not identities: video stays in-store and shoppers are not face-matched.

Count visitors and measure checkout queues in real time, so managers staff to actual demand and recover the sales otherwise lost to abandoned queues.

See where shoppers go and how long they dwell across the floor, so merchandisers place products and promotions where attention actually is.

How does footfall counting work in a retail store, and how accurate is it?
Footfall counting runs computer vision on your existing store cameras: the model detects each person entering and moving through the floor and counts them in real time, separating staff and repeat passes so the number reflects real visitors. Because it works on the video stream rather than a single doorway beam, it also measures dwell and checkout queue length by zone. Nodeflux uses a NIST-tested vision engine, and accuracy holds up across the lighting and crowd conditions of a working store. You get live counts you can staff and merchandise against, not an end-of-day estimate.
Does retail people counting use facial recognition, and is it privacy compliant?
People counting and heatmaps do not need facial recognition: the system counts and tracks shoppers as anonymous shapes moving through the store, so it knows how many people and where they go, not who they are. That keeps it privacy-first and a better fit for retail data protection rules, because you are measuring behaviour, not matching faces against a database. Everything can run on-premise, so the video stays inside your stores. Face matching is a separate, opt-in capability you would only enable for a specific use case, never a default for counting shoppers.
Can retail video analytics run on-premise so customer data never leaves the store?
Yes. The vision engine is built to run on-premise on hardware in your own store or data centre, so camera feeds and the analytics derived from them stay on your infrastructure and your customer and sales data stays in your stores. There is no requirement to stream raw video to an outside cloud to get footfall, queue, heatmap, or loss-prevention results. That on-premise model is also how Nodeflux deploys for regulated customers across 8 countries. You keep full ownership of the footage and the insights.
How does AI loss prevention reduce shrinkage at checkout and on the shelf?
AI loss prevention watches for the behaviours tied to shrinkage, such as suspicious activity at the checkout and items leaving the shelf without a scan, and flags them live so a team member can step in during the moment rather than discovering the loss at the next stock-take. Catching events in real time protects margin directly and shortens the gap between an incident and a response. It leads with privacy: the system reads behaviour and stays in-store, so you are not face-matching every shopper to fight shrinkage. Over time the flagged events also show you where on the floor and in the day shrinkage concentrates.
What can a store operations AI assistant answer about sales, inventory and policies?
A store operations AI assistant connects to your sales, inventory, footfall, and policy data and answers questions in plain language: what is selling, what is out of stock and why, how conversion tracked against footfall, or what the policy is on a return or a promotion. It can also turn the day's numbers into a short action list so every store runs on the same playbook before opening. Athena is the auditable assistant behind this, and every answer is sourced back to the underlying record so a manager can trust and verify it. The result is fewer manual reports and faster, more consistent store decisions.
