AI video event summaries

Opening every overnight clip takes time. AI video event summaries turn supported detections into short written descriptions, helping an operator choose what to watch first. A summary might describe someone entering an office lobby, but the recording remains the evidence.

How it works

Turn detected events into short descriptions that help your team decide what to review.

Where it could help your business

Triage overnight activity across office locations before opening each clip.

Check whether the tool analyses the whole clip or selected frames. Test events with more than one person and activity in the background. A useful summary should link back to its footage and make it easy to correct a misleading description.

What your camera setup needs

Requires a supported AI appliance or platform. Verify generated descriptions against the original recording.

Can an AI summary replace watching the video?

No. Use it to organise review. Before responding to an incident or sharing a report, check the original video for details the summary may have missed or described incorrectly.

Check it on your own site

Bring a camera model list and explain the event you want to find or detect. We can use that to scope a compatibility assessment. Ask for a written proposal naming the supported functions, processing hardware, licences and pilot checks before agreeing to an installation.

Event summaries: estimate it for your site

Use your own measurements. The result is the staff time released, shown separately from any cash, using the formula below. It runs in your browser and nothing is sent anywhere.

Fields start empty. A blank is “not entered”, not zero; type 0 where 0 is true.

Every statement in a draft is checked against the video.

Money (optional)

Salary plus benefits and overheads, per working hour. Needed only if you enter a realisation above 0%.

0% unless you can name the mechanism — overtime that stops, a post not refilled, a contract reduced.

Only from your own records. May be negative.

Licences, support, connectivity. Enter 0 if there is none.

Hardware, installation, commissioning. Enter 0 if there is none.

Enter every amount on the same basis — all including GST or all excluding it. Nothing here adds or removes tax. Values are nominal rupees, not discounted.

Result

Enter your own figures, or load the worked example, to see the result.

How it is calculated

hours = reports × (manual − assisted and review) ÷ 60

Worked example (illustrative inputs)

40 reports; 20 old; 8 new.

staff time released: 8 hours a month.

Formula version 1.0.0. The full standalone tool: investigation time.

What this does not tell you

  • Hours released are capacity, not cash. They become cash only through a mechanism you state — overtime that stops, a post that is not refilled — entered as the realisation fraction.
  • The 'after' values are your assumptions or pilot measurements. PGAK publishes no effectiveness figure for this feature.

Evidence status: Supplier/integration or marketed capability; PGAK availability and site performance require verification.
