Show Notes
City Detect, a vision AI startup, has secured $13M in Series A funding led by Prudence Venture Capital. The company uses AI-powered cameras on garbage trucks and street sweepers to identify urban decay, such as graffiti and storm damage, in at least 17 cities, including Dallas and Miami. The tech offers faster and more efficient blight and illegal dumping solutions compared to manual checks. Privacy is ensured with blurred faces and license plates, and the AI can differentiate between street art and vandalism. The funding will be used to hire more engineers and improve storm detection tools, with plans to expand across the U.S.
