Core offering

Polynome AI develops an agentic AI platform for physical operations combining a Vision Agent (video-based AI monitoring via existing CCTV/IP cameras) and a Voice Agent (goal-driven conversational AI), both powered by a single unified reasoning engine. The platform processes all data on-premise at the edge with no cloud dependency, delivering real-time event perception, understanding, and automated action for enterprise and government customers. Adjacent offerings include executive AI education through Polynome AI Academy and AI summits.

Product overview

Polynome AI is an agentic AI company for physical operations offering a unified AI platform with two core products — Vision and Voice — built on a single reasoning engine. Vision is a vision agent that connects to existing CCTV or IP cameras to monitor physical spaces in real time, classify events, detect anomalies, and trigger automated workflows. Voice is a goal-driven voice agent that handles customer and operational conversations end-to-end through existing phone infrastructure, supporting English and Arabic with dialect support. Both products operate on-premise with edge processing (no cloud dependency, video never leaves the perimeter). The platform is offered across four industry verticals: Hospitality (guest experience and service quality), Retail (digital floor management, queue monitoring), Public Services (citizen services, city-scale monitoring), and Logistics & Warehouses (dock management, dispatch coordination). The company also operates Polynome AI Academy offering executive education programs including the CAIO program (in partnership with ADSM), International AI Program, and GSMA telecom training; and hosts flagship events including Machines Can See (Dubai) and Machines Can Think (Abu Dhabi).

Products and services

• Vision Agent A vision-based AI agent that connects to existing CCTV or IP cameras and uses a Vision Language Model (VLM) to classify events, detect anomalies, generate operational analytics (heatmaps, dwell time, footfall, queue metrics), and trigger automated workflows. Configured in natural language with no ML team required. All processing happens at the edge on-premise, with video never leaving the customer site. Target users are enterprises and government organizations in hospitality, retail, logistics, and public services.
• Voice Agent A goal-driven conversational voice agent that handles customer and operational conversations end-to-end, including support, collections, sales, concierge, and booking, over existing phone infrastructure. It features natural conversation with intent understanding, interruption handling, and topic steering, only handing off when genuinely needed. Multilingual with English and Arabic (including dialects) trained in-house rather than via third-party voice APIs. Average response time 0.2s versus an 8s industry standard. Used for inbound/outbound calls, dispatch coordination, and staff alerts.
