XXII GROUP

What XXII GROUP does

XXII GROUP is a French computer vision software company founded in 2015 and headquartered in Puteaux, France, that develops the CORE platform, an AI-powered video analytics solution transforming real-world video feeds from physical environments into actionable operational insights. CORE aggregates live camera streams and sensor data through an AI analysis engine available in both cloud and on-premise deployment configurations, exposing sector-specific modules for retail analytics, events, library management, and configuration. The platform addresses six verticals: retail (customer journey, point-of-sale performance), logistics (operations optimization, warehouse security), transport (station security, passenger flow), ERP/public venues (crowd management, safety), public spaces (urban usage monitoring), and industry (site safety and efficiency). Notable enterprise customers include SNCF, Leroy Merlin, Klepierre, Krys, Nhood, Grand Frais, Esso, Sierra Nevada, and Solidays.

The CORE 4.3 release in January 2026 integrates generative AI and Vision Language Models (VLM), extending the platform beyond classical computer vision into AI-driven decision-making and predictive analytics. Underlying capabilities include computer vision, anomaly detection, predictive analytics, and process automation, supported by GDPR/RGPD-compliant data handling and an explicit ethics framework. XXII GROUP distributes CORE primarily through direct enterprise field sales (prominent "Request a demo" CTA) supplemented by a self-serve SaaS portal at core.app.xxiiai.com, with revenue generated through recurring subscription SaaS contracts priced on a quote basis.

The company has raised approximately €22 million in a March 2023 Series 2 (574 Invest, CIB Développement, Fonds Innovation Défense, Groupe Duval, Kima Ventures, Techmind, with Bpifrance) and follow-on capital from Sopra Steria Ventures in January 2025. In January 2026, XXII announced the transfer of its Système V technology to Orasio, refining strategic focus toward the retail vertical after several years of co-development with the French Ministry of the Interior. Leadership comprises founder/CEO William Eldin, co-founder Francois Legris, CRO Jean-Pierre Gressin, and CTO/CSO Souheil Hanoune. The company operates primarily in France with selected European deployments in Monaco and Spain, employs 51-100 staff, and is privately held.
