Whether you’re managing job site safety, field reports, or product submissions, this is a game-changing way to spot visual issues and act in real time—automatically.

What You’ll Learn in This Demo

Follow the full process—from building a custom detection model to triggering real-time alerts with Zapier.

1️⃣ Types of Computer Vision Models (Timestamp: 0:57)

  • Understand object detection vs. classification
  • Explore use cases for pose, segmentation, and OCR

2️⃣ How EyePop.ai Works (Workflow Overview) (Timestamp: 3:06)

  • Upload images, train your model, and deploy it—no ML team needed
  • Use the “POP” endpoint to power real-time logic and automation

3️⃣ Explore Pre-Built Models (Timestamp: 4:01)

  • Detect people, products, text, safety gear, animals, vehicles, and more
  • Combine with your custom models to get richer, more actionable insight

4️⃣ Live Demo: Safety Alert System (Timestamp: 5:54)

  • Analyze a video for missing hard hats
  • See an automatic SMS alert sent when safety gear isn’t detected

5️⃣ Review Detection Results & Alerts (Timestamp: 7:35)

  • Visualize the detection frame and object confidence
  • Confirm server response and alert details inside Zapier

6️⃣ Build a Custom Detection Model (Timestamp: 11:13)

  • Train your own hard hat detection model using labeled images
  • Use folder tagging, autolabeling, and confidence thresholds

7️⃣ Deploy Your Model to Zapier (Timestamp: 15:15)

  • Connect your trained model to Zapier with your API key and POP UUID
  • Use the EyePop.ai plugin to integrate visual intelligence into workflows

8️⃣ Full Zapier Flow Setup (Timestamp: 17:08)

  • Add API.video to ingest live streams or uploads
  • Send video to EyePop for analysis
  • Trigger custom SMS alerts using Zapier’s built-in tools
