Every camera, searchable in plain language.
EdgeTrace turns hours of footage into seconds of evidence. Ask in natural language. Find the vehicle, person, or moment your investigation needs, across every camera you operate.
Cameras everywhere. Time, nowhere.
Agencies have more video than ever: every patrol cruiser, every public camera, every business that shares footage. But reviewing it is still done one frame at a time, by hand, by people who should be working the case.
- Each camera reviewed manually, frame-by-frame
- Critical evidence missed or surfaced days too late
- Investigative leads stale before review completes
- Patrol footage, public cams, and business video sit in silos
- Every connected camera searchable in plain language
- Match-ranked results with timestamps and clip exports
- Chain of custody preserved from query to export
- Same query runs across cruisers, cams, and shared feeds
Three steps. No model tuning.
EdgeTrace runs alongside your existing VMS, then phases it out when you’re ready. Connect the cameras you already operate, index in place, and start querying: no separate camera fleet, no proprietary hardware, no labeling.
Connect
Plug into your existing VMS, NVR, or shared cloud: Genetec, Milestone, Avigilon, S3. Indexing runs on-prem on an EdgeTrace appliance. Footage never leaves your network.
Ask
“White Tacoma, ladder rack, between 2 and 4 a.m.” Query in plain English across the full camera fleet and time window. Results return ranked with match scores and timestamps.
Hand off
Export clips with full chain-of-custody metadata. Auto-redact bystanders. Share to detectives, prosecutors, or partner agencies with a single link that respects your data-sharing policy.
The radio call you’d expect from someone on the floor.
Behavior search: describe an action, not just an object. EdgeTrace flags it the moment it happens and follows the subject camera to camera.
One tool. Four operating tempos.
EdgeTrace adapts to the question being asked: live, retrospective, strategic, or cross-jurisdictional.
Live intelligence during the call.
Match suspect descriptions against the live feed while patrol is still en route. Push matches to mobile in under a second.
Retrospective case work.
Pull every appearance of a vehicle, person, or object across a multi-day window, without watching a frame.
Strategic posture.
See pattern-of-life trends across districts. Quantify camera coverage gaps before the next budget cycle.
Cross-jurisdictional review.
Run the same query across partner-agency feeds with role-bounded access and a full audit trail per viewer.
Real work, in real rooms.
EdgeTrace lives in the places the work already happens: the watch floor, the crime center, the investigations bureau. On agency hardware, on the agency network.
EdgeTrace found evidence in seconds that would have taken us hours to discover, if we found it at all.
The customer service has been phenomenal. There hasn’t been anything we’ve suggested that they’ve said they can’t do: the willingness to listen and implement it in a really quick fashion.
This is exactly what we need for what we’re trying to achieve. I’m mostly impressed by how fast it is.
Built for the rules you operate under.
EdgeTrace is engineered for the constraints public-safety agencies actually face: evidentiary integrity, custody, and data sovereignty. Not retrofit. Designed in.
Chain of custody
Every query, viewer, export, and edit is signed and timestamped. Hand a verifiable record to prosecutors with the clip.
On-prem appliance
EdgeTrace runs inside your network on agency-owned hardware. Footage and indexes never traverse the public internet.
Air-gapped option
For fusion and high-security deployments, the appliance runs fully isolated. Model updates ship on signed media.
Role-bounded access
CJIS-ready roles, per-camera scoping, and partner-agency sharing with revocable, audit-logged grants.
Automatic redaction
Faces, license plates, and bystanders blurred on export per policy. Reversible only with logged supervisor approval.
No model training on your data
Your footage is yours. EdgeTrace does not train, retain, or re-purpose agency video. Contractually and technically.
Court-ready exports
Clips ship with hash-signed metadata, query lineage, and a printable affidavit of how the evidence was surfaced.
Defense-in-depth
Encrypted at rest and in transit, hardware-rooted device identity, and signed updates.
