Checklist: How to Prepare Your Store for AI Theft Prevention
As shoplifting and retail crime continue to rise, retailers seek more intelligent and proactive solutions to secure their stores. AI-powered mobile apps, like XVeillance, are leading the way in theft prevention technology. With advanced facial recognition and real-time alerts, XVeillance empowers store owners and managers to take control of their shop security like never before.
However, implementing an AI-driven solution requires some preparation. This blog outlines a step-by-step theft prevention checklist to ensure your store is ready to benefit from XVeillance’s innovative features fully.
Why Use an AI-Powered Mobile App for Theft Prevention?
Traditional security systems rely heavily on manual surveillance, CCTV footage review, and staff vigilance. These methods are often reactive and can result in time consumption, missed incidents, delayed responses, and loss of revenue.
XVeillance offers a smarter solution:
AI-powered facial recognition identifies known persons of interest (POIs) as they enter your store.
Real-time mobile alerts notify your team instantly, allowing for immediate response.
Seamless integration with your smartphone or tablet—no expensive hardware upgrades required.
Cloud-based POI database keeps your alerts up to date across all devices.
Discreet operation that helps deter theft without disturbing the shopping experience.
With shoplifting estimated to cost retailers over $100 billion globally each year, investing in an intelligent prevention tool like XVeillance can have a significant impact on your bottom line.
