Why Smart-ER is Built for Retail Theft Prevention

Retailers face growing challenges in preventing employee theft and improving operational efficiency, especially with large-scale POS systems. Traditional exception reporting often lacks intelligence and video context, leaving businesses blind to fraud and unable to act quickly.

By automating exception detection, prioritizing high-risk alerts, and pairing reports with video, Smart-ER empowers loss prevention teams to reduce fraud, optimize operations, and make data-driven decisions across multiple locations.

How does it work

1. POS data extraction and Ai analysis

Data from the POS system is extracted and analyzed using i3’s Ai-powered algorithms to identify potential exceptions.

 

2. Custom risk filtering

The process begins with i3’s risk matrix, which weights and structures exception data to ensure that the most critical exceptions are flagged for review.

3. Automated video integration

Smart-ER automatically pairs each exception report with corresponding video footage, allowing AP teams to review incidents with greater accuracy and efficiency.

 

4. Cloud-based centralized reporting

Exception reports are generated daily and stored in the cloud, providing a centralized platform for reviewing store performance and investigating incidents.
