Sorveo, a Nigerian enterprise technology company specialising in artificial intelligence-driven video intelligence, has unveiled a new AI-powered platform designed to help organisations transform conventional CCTV systems into intelligent tools for real-time security monitoring and operational management.
The company said the platform enables businesses to maximise the value of their existing surveillance infrastructure by applying AI to live video feeds, allowing security and operations teams to detect incidents as they occur instead of relying solely on recorded footage for post-event investigations.
Turning CCTV Cameras into Intelligent Security Systems
Across Nigeria, organisations have invested heavily in CCTV infrastructure over the years. However, monitoring hundreds of camera feeds simultaneously remains a significant challenge, with many security incidents only identified after they have occurred.
Sorveo said its AI-powered solution addresses this gap by automatically analysing live video streams and alerting security personnel whenever predefined events or unusual activities are detected.
Unlike traditional video management systems that primarily store recordings for later review, the platform is designed to provide real-time intelligence, enabling faster incident response while improving overall situational awareness.
Beyond Security Monitoring
The company believes artificial intelligence can significantly expand the role of surveillance systems beyond conventional security applications.
In addition to identifying unauthorised access, perimeter breaches and watchlist matches, the platform can support operational functions such as occupancy monitoring, workplace safety compliance, facility management and operational efficiency.
By combining security analytics with operational insights, organisations can derive greater value from their existing camera infrastructure without replacing installed equipment.
Works with Existing Camera Infrastructure
One of the platform’s key advantages is its compatibility with existing IP-based camera systems.
Rather than requiring businesses to install entirely new surveillance networks, Sorveo’s technology integrates with current CCTV infrastructure, enabling organisations to introduce AI-powered analytics while minimising additional capital expenditure.
According to the company, this approach lowers the barrier to AI adoption and allows enterprises to modernise their security operations more efficiently.
Targeting Multiple Industries
Sorveo said the platform has been developed for organisations operating large or complex facilities where continuous manual monitoring is difficult.
The solution is aimed at sectors including:
- Oil and gas
- Manufacturing
- Universities and educational institutions
- Hotels and hospitality
- Commercial real estate
- Logistics and distribution
- Retail businesses
- Critical national infrastructure
By automatically identifying significant events and directing alerts to the appropriate personnel, the company says organisations can improve response times while reducing the workload placed on security operators responsible for monitoring multiple camera feeds simultaneously.
AI Reshaping Enterprise Video Surveillance
Speaking on the launch, Iso Bassey, Founder of Sorveo, said many organisations already possess the surveillance infrastructure needed to improve security, but lack the intelligence required to extract meaningful insights from it.
He noted that the company’s objective is to help enterprises unlock greater value from existing CCTV investments by using artificial intelligence to identify important events in real time and deliver actionable information when it matters most.
Positioning Nigeria for Smarter Enterprise Security
The launch comes as businesses increasingly explore AI-powered technologies to strengthen security, improve operational efficiency and enhance decision-making.
Rather than viewing CCTV solely as a recording tool, organisations are beginning to adopt intelligent video analytics that support both security and business operations.
With its official entry into the Nigerian market, Sorveo aims to accelerate the adoption of AI-powered video intelligence, enabling enterprises to modernise surveillance systems, improve incident response and gain deeper operational insights without replacing their existing camera infrastructure.
