Seven billion images processed in 2024, 30 TB of data now processed monthly
Ultra-fast three-second turnaround time for image detection, processing, and alert generation in real time
Zero downtime with continuous, AI-driven surveillance and monitoring
Reduces fatalities from 57 to 0 in deployed areas
For every seven human lives saved, one wild animal is also saved
Valiance used Google Cloud for the real-time processing of large datasets on animal sightings and activity to minimize human-wildlife contact conflict and speed up government response times to protect human lives in wildlife-encroached areas (rural and urban) across India.

The new way to safeguard wildlife and communities with AI-powered monitoring
Wildlife-related fatalities were a serious issue prior to the deployment of Valiance's AI-powered spot-confirm-and-alert solution. One of the biggest challenges was processing massive volumes of data efficiently, reliably, and quickly, while also managing costs, storage, and computing resources.
Google Cloud provided the capabilities to handle complex AI models at scale while optimizing operational costs without compromising performance and security.
This seamless scaling was possible with a lean team, while maintaining high uptime and ensuring efficient resource utilization, all of which has made the AI systems more resilient and responsive.
Why Google Cloud?
As the leading cloud platform, Google Cloud delivered exceptional service and very cost-effective pricing. Today, we have more than 150 installations covering a population of approximately five million. We have also showcased the accuracy of our wildlife detection system, highlighting the ability to identify wildlife even from partial images.

Valiance chose Google Cloud for its scalability, cost-effectiveness, and support. Additionally, it could host and curate models without managing them, while ensuring unmatched data security and regulatory compliance.
Running on Google Cloud, the company's AI-powered human-wildlife conflict solution involves a 24x7 camera system that detects wildlife, identifies animal species, triggers warnings, and alerts the authorities. It has resulted in zero human lives lost in areas where the solution has been implemented. Moreover, for every seven human lives saved, one wildlife life is saved — reducing human deaths generally leads to a decrease in the retaliatory killing of wildlife.
Valiance is a deep tech leader redefining digital transformation with AI-powered video intelligence, data engineering, and cloud innovation. From preventing human-wildlife conflicts to revolutionizing public safety, they harness AI for good, making a real difference.
