Safeguarding animal welfare and
optimizing abattoir efficiency
Our AI-driven technology integrates CCTV and sensors to provide real-time insights into every step of the process, from animal arrival to the first act of slaughter
How Argus works
Argus is a smart monitoring system that helps slaughterhouses proactively manage animal welfare and compliance. It automatically flags irregularities and presents them clearly in a user-friendly dashboard. Slaughterhouse staff can review each detection, respond where necessary, and use the data for reporting and ongoing improvement.
1Real-time assistance
Argus runs all its analyses in real time and provides direct feedback. The results are instantly available in the web portal, where they support the work of staff. Argus is not an autonomous system — human involvement remains essential to interpret findings and take action.
2Optimized evaluation
The results of the analysis are made available in the web portal, making a connection between camera footage and actual events. The server is located at your location, making the web portal completely secure.
3Structural improvements
Using Argus, you collect a lot of data. The thirth goal of Argus is to leverage this data to provide trend analysis of results over time. By monitoring key performance indicators (KPIs), valuable insights into changes and improvements can be gained.
4Proven animal welfare
Our vision for Argus is to provide objective proof that ensures animal welfare at abattoirs, not because we claim it, but because an objective system confirms it.
The impact of Argus
Hidden footage and surprise investigations often expose issues too late. With Argus, you stay ahead of problems before they arise. The system provides clear insight into how animals are treated in daily operations, helping you stay in control and reduce the risk of regulatory intervention.
KPI reports are generated automatically, making compliance easy and transparent, so you can report with confidence and integrity. Argus supports you in demonstrating high standards and strengthens your public image when it matters. Strategic transparency builds trust and with Argus, you're equipped to share the right information at the right time.
