Ipsotek

What Ipsotek does

Ipsotek Ltd is a UK-based provider of AI-powered video analytics, founded in 2001 and operating as a wholly-owned subsidiary of Eviden (the Atos Group entity created from the Atos tech-foundations consolidation following Atos's 2021 acquisition of Ipsotek). The company's core product is the VISuite platform, which combines more than 20 traditional video-analytics algorithms with 12+ deep-learning models and a patented Scenario-Based Rule Engine (SBRE) to convert live CCTV streams into real-time alerts, forensic metadata, and behavioral insights. Modules extend the core platform into facial recognition (VISuite FR), license plate recognition (VISuite LPR), forensics and suspect tracking (VISuite Forensics, Tag and Track), proximity detection, and generative AI-powered natural-language video search (AIVA Engine / GenAI / NLD). Underlying infrastructure runs on NVIDIA GPU acceleration with a cloud-native architecture compatible with hyperscalers.

Ipsotek serves enterprise and government buyers across transportation (160+ airport projects, rail), government and smart cities (200+ projects), retail (120+ projects), critical infrastructure, hospitality, banking, education, and healthcare in 44+ countries. Named deployments include SBS Transit's Sengkang Punggol LRT in Singapore, multiple Romanian airports (Bucharest, Cluj, Sibiu, Satu Mare) via UTI CFM, Katara Culture Village in Qatar (Ministry of Interior-approved facial recognition), Media One Hotel in Dubai, and Spark New Zealand for channel distribution.

The company generates revenue through enterprise software licensing (annual subscriptions of the VISuite platform and its modules) and professional services for design, customization, integration, and commissioning. Pricing is quote-based and not publicly disclosed. Go-to-market blends direct enterprise field sales (regional directors in EMEA, APAC, Americas, Middle East) with a channel network of system integrators and technology partners (UTI CFM, i-PRO APAC, Mannai Trading Co, Spark NZ, Dell, Nokia, NVIDIA). The company is GDPR-compliant, has offices in the UK (Wimbledon HQ), Dubai, Doha, and Singapore, and is led by co-founder and CTO Dr. Boghos Boghossian alongside a recently appointed CFO and multiple regional country managers.
