Revenue model

1. Edge AI Software Licensing: Xailient licenses its Edge AI SDKs to camera OEMs and chip manufacturers. SDKs are hardware-aware and optimized for specific chipsets from partners like Sony, Intel, Ingenic, and others. Revenue is generated through technology licensing agreements with commercial partners.
2. Pre-integrated Smart Cameras (Eye-D): Sale of pre-integrated smart camera products (Eye-D 10k and Eye-D Enterprise) with built-in facial recognition technology. Cameras are sold directly to enterprise customers in casino, retail, and defense sectors.
3. Orchestrait Platform: AI management platform for computer vision operations at scale. Provides deployment, monitoring, data collection, and improvement tools for enterprise camera fleets. Revenue model likely subscription-based for platform access.
