Turn your cameras into a 24/7 safety officer
C5 Safety is self-hosted computer vision that flags PPE violations, falls, fire, and restricted-zone breaches the moment they happen — with video evidence attached. No new cameras. No cloud.

- C5 Safety is self-hosted computer vision that flags PPE violations, falls, fire, and restricted-zone breaches the moment they happen on the cameras you already own.
- Built for safety teams at industrial plants, sites, and yards — works with existing RTSP, ONVIF, and USB cameras (Hikvision, Dahua, Axis, Bosch, Uniview, Honeywell, Avigilon, generic IP), no rip-and-replace.
- 27+ specific hazards across 9 detection categories are included in every deployment, with no per-feature paywalls.
- Self-hosted by default — camera frames never leave your infrastructure, data center, plant network, or private cloud.
- Pricing is bundled across Pilot, Site (up to 32 cameras, popular), and Enterprise (multi-site) tiers, with first-year support and a one-day on-site deployment included on Site.
- 2.93 million people die from work-related causes every year, according to the International Labour Organization (ILO), 2023 — the majority preventable, and most happening in full view of an unwatched camera.
This page is for workplace safety teams, industrial plants, sites, and yards that want continuous hazard monitoring on the cameras they already have. It covers what C5 Safety detects, how it connects to existing CCTV and IP cameras, how deployment works, and how it is priced.
2.93 million people die from work-related causes every year. The majority are preventable — and most happen in full view of a camera that no one is watching.

Presets for your industry
- Construction — Hard-hat & harness compliance, fall and work-at-height detection, vehicle proximity.
- Oil & gas — Smoking & ignition in no-flame zones, restricted-area access, lone-worker monitoring.
- Warehousing — Forklift–pedestrian proximity, zone overcrowding, PPE at loading docks.
Every workplace hazard, monitored continuously
27+ specific hazards — from PPE and fire to vehicles and restricted zones — all included in every deployment. No per-feature paywalls.
PPE compliance
Hard hats, vests, gloves, and goggles — flagged the moment they're missing.
Fall & collapse
Slips, falls, and worker immobility, caught in real time.
Fire & smoke
Early-stage fire and smoke, spotted before they spread.
Smoking & ignition
Open flames and smoking inside no-smoking zones.
Restricted-zone access
No-go areas, dwell-time limits, and overcrowding.
Lone-worker
Workers alone in high-risk zones beyond a safe duration.
Vehicle hazards
Forklift proximity, vehicles in pedestrian zones, and speeding.
Behavioral
Running, improper lifting, and other unsafe movement.
Worker re-identification
Track people across cameras — face-blurred by default.
Our proven process for keeping sites safe
Connect
Run the C5 server on your own machine (Linux/Windows/macOS), or rack the pre-configured appliance included with a Site deployment. The setup wizard and ONVIF auto-discovery find your cameras. No rewiring, no camera swap.
Watch
Every camera is monitored continuously. Sub-second live preview in the browser, with detection overlays drawn from real-time inference — all inside your own network.
Act
Violations trigger instant alerts with snapshot, video clip, and webhook payload. Acknowledge, resolve, and export — all from one dashboard.
Detections, drawn live
C5 locks onto every person in frame and tracks them across the scene. Below, the engine runs over sample footage — boxes, confidence, and tracking IDs are live model output. Live tracking — people & vehicles, on the cameras you already own.
- PPE compliance — High
- Pedestrian / vehicle zone — High
- Work at height — High
- Zone occupancy — multi-worker tracking — Live count
Representative detections on sample footage — not a customer deployment. Person tracking, confidence, and counts are live model output; hazard flags illustrate what C5 detects on your feeds.
Works with the cameras you already own — no rip and replace

Built for industrial reality, not a SaaS demo
Self-hosted by default
Runs in your data center, plant network, or private cloud. Camera frames never leave your infrastructure. No vendor cloud, no data exfiltration.
Runs on your existing cameras
No rip-and-replace and no proprietary cameras. C5 connects to the IP and CCTV cameras already on your network, so safety coverage starts on day one. C5 Safety AI supports ingesting existing RTSP, ONVIF, and USB camera feeds without rip-and-replace (C5 Safety AI, About).
Deployed end-to-end
Bundled edge appliance, one-day on-site install, first-year support — we ship engineers, not logins. The site goes live before our team leaves.
Most incidents are preventable
The numbers safety leads already know — and why continuous monitoring matters.
- 2.93M Work-related deaths per year, worldwide — ILO, 2023
- 39% of construction deaths are falls, slips & trips — OSHA
- ~33% of global work fatalities are in agriculture — ILO
- 22% of construction deaths are transportation incidents — OSHA
Simple pricing, high impact
Every detection category is included in every tier — one bundled price for appliance, software, deployment, and first-year support.
Pilot — Proof of concept
Validate C5 on a few of your own cameras before you commit. Custom pricing. What's included: Runs on your existing CCTV; Up to a handful of cameras; All 9 detection categories.
Site — Popular
A complete single-site deployment, fully bundled. Custom pricing. What's included: Pre-configured edge appliance; Up to 32 cameras on one appliance; On-site deployment by a C5 engineer; First-year support included.
Enterprise — Multi-site
Central oversight across many sites, with integrations. Custom pricing. What's included: Per-site appliances + central dashboard; Dedicated customer success manager; 24/7 SLA + SSO; Custom EHS / BI integrations.
Deployments start in the low five figures per site, fully bundled: appliance, annual software, on-site deployment, and first-year support. Enterprise multi-site engagements are custom-quoted.
