Why Leading Retail Chains Are Turning to Visual AI?
Retailers across the US and UK are facing record losses from theft, fraud, and operational errors — challenges that traditional security measures can no longer keep up with.
- $45 billion in retail theft losses were reported in the US in 2024 — projected to exceed $53 billion by 2027.
- Organized retail crime (ORC) alone accounts for tens of billions in annual losses.
- Shrinkage isn’t just hurting profits — it’s affecting staff safety and the shopping experience.
