Spot AI at a multi-site loading dock

Where it fits

A depot manager may know the date of a damaged pallet and little else. The purchasing question here is whether an operator can trace the handling sequence across cameras. Spot pairs its Intelligent Video Recorder — local processing plus local recording — with a cloud dashboard for viewing and investigation across locations. That combination earns it a place on a shortlist where a local copy and central search are both requirements. V01 · System · V01 · Retrofit guide

Deployment boundary

The vendor describes using existing ONVIF IP cameras. List the exact camera, firmware, codec and recorder input for the two intended angles, and have the installer demonstrate both on the proposed recorder. A logo on a camera datasheet is a poor substitute for finding yesterday's pallet on that channel. V01 · Camera deployment

Spot also describes Iris queries and responses such as talk-down audio. Note that search time and time to an audible intervention end at different points; if audio is in scope, identify the speaker and use a supervised test site. V02 · Product FAQ

Price basis

Spot describes its subscription unit as a location, and the cited description supplies no dollar rate. For two depots, request two location line items and ask what each includes — recorders, retention periods, response equipment. Put the renewal price and term beside the initial quote.

Evidence to request

Seed a permitted recording with a known vehicle at a recorded source time. Give an operator the site, date and a written search prompt, and stop the clock when the correct clip is open at the specified angle. Retain the prompt, channel, returned timestamp, operator time and any wrong clips opened. Repeat the exercise with a fresh event at the second depot. Before signing, can a second operator retrieve the same two intervals using the quoted configuration?
