Focal's AI technology is adept at detecting various in-store occurrences such as ins, outs, lows, POG non-compliance, spoiled produce, and more.
Our Deep Learning Computer Vision, hailed as the most accurate shelf digitalization technology globally, is trained on a vast dataset of over 2 billion labeled images. This forms the core of our proprietary algorithm, ensuring unparalleled accuracy and performance. Prior to detection, we meticulously eliminate all "people-pixels" to safeguard personal privacy. With Focal's advanced capabilities, you can effectively monitor and manage your store's inventory and compliance with ease.
Focal’s easy to train Stocker Action Tool ranks outs by lost sales and empowers stockers to work outs in order of importance
Focal’s Stocker Action Tool is the most easy to use task management system. By “showing” the stockers exactly where to get product in the backroom and guiding them to where to stock it on the salesfloor, and which products to work first, Focal’s Stocker Action Tool leads to huge productivity savings and an increase in employee NPS.

With FocalOS, you can virtually "teleport" to any store in your chain within seconds.
As an operator, you understand the significance of being present and witnessing firsthand what transpires. However, your demanding schedule often impedes your ability to physically visit every location. Moreover, there's a risk that your team may adjust their behavior knowing your anticipated arrival, providing a skewed perspective.
Imagine being able to traverse all your stores within just an hour, seamlessly teleporting to any location to observe operations in real-time. With FocalOS, this vision becomes a reality, empowering you to gain invaluable insights and oversight across your entire retail network.
