Vaidio, the leader in Vision AI and formerly known as IronYun, has once again been named Best New Product at the Security Industry Association (SIA) 2025 New Product and Service Awards — marking the second consecutive year the company has earned this prestigious recognition. Vaidio also took home top honors in two additional categories: Loss Prevention and Article Surveillance Solutions, and Enhanced Project Delivery, underlining its impact across both security and operational domains.
Revolutionizing Video Analytics with GenAI and Agentic Intelligence
The award-winning 9th generation Vaidio platform introduces a new era of video analytics powered by agentic AI and Generative AI capabilities. At the core of the platform are innovations that transform traditional video surveillance into a scalable, intelligent system capable of real-time operational awareness.
platform capabilities include:
- Camera Auto-Configuration Agent: Uses advanced vision language models (VLMs) to automate and simplify camera setup. This significantly reduces deployment time and ensures scalable implementation of analytics across environments.
- Dynamic Function Switching: Cameras can automatically shift functions — for instance, serving as an intrusion detector during the day and switching to a license plate recognition (LPR) system at night — maximizing hardware utility.
- Natural Language Search & Alerts: Security teams can now search video footage using everyday language, enabling faster response. Examples include phrases like “holding a red purse” or “wearing a football jersey,” which immediately trigger object- and attribute-based detection.
Real-World Impact: Accuracy, Efficiency, and Cost Savings
Vaidio’s platform is engineered to deliver exceptional accuracy, compute efficiency, and deployment flexibility. Its low Total Cost of Ownership (TCO) and wide applicability across sectors such as retail, transportation, critical infrastructure, and public safety make it a compelling choice for modern security teams.
By turning raw video feeds into actionable intelligence, Vaidio helps organizations:
- Prevent incidents before they escalate
- Reduce theft and inventory shrinkage
- Eliminate false alerts
- Accelerate post-incident investigations
- Improve decision-making across safety and operations
Customer-First AI Innovation
“This award validates the impact AI is having on the safety and security industry and Vaidio’s leadership in helping customers unlock the power of their cameras with AI,” said Marshall Tyler, CEO of Vaidio. “Our priority is to ensure security teams can operate with utmost confidence and speed, while making the most of their existing investments and resources. We’re honored that this work has been recognized by SIA.”
Setting the Standard for AI in Safety and Security
As the industry embraces AI, Vaidio is leading the way with intelligent, intuitive, and integrated video solutions. Its back-to-back recognition at the SIA New Product and Service Awards underscores not only its technical excellence but its real-world utility for customers across industries.
With the 9th generation platform, Vaidio is not simply advancing video analytics — it is redefining how security operations are conducted in the AI era.
