99%
of CCTV footage
is never reviewed

99% of CCTV Footage is Dark Data

  • CCTV records 24/7, but most footage is checked only after something happens
  • Enterprise systems can run $100K+, out of reach for most childcare centres
  • Cloud systems can send children's faces to third-party servers, creating PDPA risk

Blue Ocean — Nobody Owns This Niche

A per-site edge box avoids per-camera cloud fees
Centres get lower cost, on-site deployment, and AI tuned for childcare instead of generic security.

Current Reality Tree

TOC — What to Change? 3 INTERVIEWS → 10 UDEs

Core constraint: CCTV captures everything, understands nothing

Safety incidents discovered too late — after harm has occurred

Parent complaints & trust erosion

Staff accountability gaps

ECDA/MSF compliance risk

Incidents found avg 2–3 days later — only through manual review or parent reports

Generic CCTV analytics too noisy; cloud AI blocked by PDPA concerns

CCTV = passive recording, no active intelligence layer

Framework: Theory of Constraints (Goldratt) — 3 operator interviews confirmed all UDEs

Future Reality Tree

TOC — What to Change To?

Injection: On-premise edge AI turns passive CCTV into active safety intelligence

Proactive safety monitoring replaces reactive incident discovery

Incidents caught in minutes

Response: hours → minutes

Accountability via objective records

Records: manual → auto time-stamped

Franchisor multi-site view

Oversight: site-by-site → centralised

Parents trust the system

Trust: complaints → confidence

Real-time CV detection + instant alerts

Auto incident reports + searchable footage

PDPA compliance by design

On-premise edge AI device connects to existing CCTV

Childcare-specific CV models + privacy-first architecture

Before

Reactive

After

Proactive

Framework: Theory of Constraints (Goldratt)

Negative branches pruned: teacher surveillance concern, alert fatigue, hardware cost barrier, parent livestream demand

Why SIMIS.AI Wins

Supply Chain

Shenzhen co-founder gives us a hardware cost advantage

Data Flywheel

Each centre adds labelled examples, making the model harder to copy

Regulatory First-Mover

Singapore's childcare CCTV mandate gives us a clear first market

Hardware Lifecycle

Circular economy — hardware refresh and trade-in creates recurring revenue lock-in

$150K–300K funds 12 months to prove the wedge in a ~$94M pricing SAM
