What is Chooch?
Chooch is a computer vision platform that uses artificial intelligence to analyse images and video content. It helps businesses automate repetitive visual inspection tasks, identify objects, people, and activities in footage, and extract actionable data from visual media. The platform is designed for companies that need to process large volumes of images or video without manual review, such as retailers checking inventory, security teams monitoring premises, or manufacturers inspecting products. Chooch combines image recognition capabilities with customer service automation, allowing organisations to reduce labour costs and improve decision-making based on visual data.
