Why bet on Computer Vision and Safari AI?

1. Huge industry hiding in plain sight: auto-measuring physical activity at scale

2. Large chasm between customer knowledge and market availability, i.e. customers don't know what is available in the market

3. No clear leader; everyone is small and unbranded (i.e. no Amazon or Google in the room to compete with)

4. The tech is very modular, allowing Safari AI and its customers to invent whole new use cases on a regular basis

5. Safari AI has developed the tech and data pipelines over three years and invested several million dollars and is now ready to scale

6. Safari AI is already emerging as the market leader in auto-measuring with CV by working with customers like Merlin Entertainment, Taco Bell/Yum!, Goodwill, JBG Smith, City of Washington DC and Brightline to name a few.
