Interview with Dmitry Sokolowski, the CEO and co-founder of VOLT AI

In an era where safety and security are paramount, VOLT AI is making strides to deliver dynamic, actionable information that helps people stay safe as situations evolve. This innovative platform, designed for schools, enterprises, and public facilities, is poised to revolutionise the way organisations approach safety and preparedness.

At the heart of VOLT AI is a commitment to trust, with every decision made, from the features created to the language used, reinforcing that trust. The system is designed to comply with regulations like FERPA, SAFETY Act, and GDPR, addressing concerns around privacy and data security. VOLT AI's focus is on behaviour, suspicious objects, and environmental risks, going beyond simple object recognition to detect risky behaviours such as aggression, loitering, or unusual movement patterns.

The system does not collect personal identifiable information and instead, its models analyse video streams without storing personally identifiable video unless explicitly required for an investigation. This commitment to privacy is a testament to VOLT AI's dedication to building trust with its users.

The inspiration for VOLT AI came from a personal incident involving a shooting at YouTube's headquarters. Dmitry Sokolowski, CEO and Co-founder of VOLT AI, draws from his extensive experience at tech giants like Facebook, Uber, Apple, and Amazon, to lead VOLT AI in its mission.

One of the most significant deployments of VOLT AI can be seen in Loudoun County Public Schools, where the system spans more than 100 campuses and is expected to enhance situational awareness, reduce unnecessary emergency responses, and create a safer environment for over 82,000 students and 13,000 employees.

Looking ahead, VOLT AI's long-term vision includes expanding beyond physical threat detection into other safety or operational domains. This could include detecting medical incidents, responding faster to hazards, or supporting large-scale event management. In essence, VOLT AI is not just about safety, but about creating a safer and more efficient world.

For those interested in learning more about VOLT AI, a visit to the VOLT AI website is highly recommended. With its affordable price point and ability to run on existing camera infrastructure, VOLT AI is set to become an integral part of many organisations' safety strategies.
