The digital revolution has led to an exponential growth of sources of data – from social media data to safety wearables data. Because of this, the health and safety sector is bursting with data that is unstructured, and siloed from business operations, making it challenging for health and safety teams to draw actionable insights.

Each day, more and more organizations move to implement and deploy technologies with the intention of refining operational health and safety, changing behaviors, and improving health and safety metrics – achieving these outcomes are not a given, linear, or correlated.

Generative AI is altering the way we approach unstructured data. With the arrival of large language model solutions, unstructured data sets are able to be analyzed and consolidated at rapid speed in ways that were previously impossible. This has led to a significant shift in how businesses view unstructured data, and it being a critical enabler of innovation.

Protex AI, a pioneering Irish-based company specializing in computer vision for safety, has identified a critical challenge and has dedicated its resources to leveraging its expertise in AI. With a singular objective in mind, Protex AI endeavors not only to improve risk visibility through clients' pre-existing CCTV infrastructure but also to pioneer a cutting-edge Gen-AI tool, known as Protex Copilot. This innovative solution is poised to redefine the landscape of safety and operations management by revolutionizing how teams engage with, analyze, and respond to safety data. Spearheading this transformative initiative is Ciaran O’Mara, co-founder, and CTO of Protex AI, who emphasizes the significance of this groundbreaking endeavor, stating:

“Over the last decade, we’ve witnessed a transformative shift in the industrial environmental health and safety space, driven by digital innovation. At Protex, we are excited to be at the helm of the next revolutionary wave, focusing our efforts on AI technologies that can augment visibility into critical safety-leading indicators, but increasing visibility alone is not enough.
