^{Why On-Device AI Matters in Retail}

Infilect has had insightful discussions with top CPG manufacturers at industry events, and one message stands out: The quality of shelf images is critical. Poor retail shelf image recognition leads to inaccurate insights, delays in execution, and missed opportunities. That’s why Infilect’s AI-powered merchandising solutions are heavily focused on On-Device AI—to ensure every shelf image captured in-store is accurate, actionable, and optimized from the start.

^{How Infilect’s On-Device AI Works}

Our Infilect Inside strategy integrates AI-driven intelligence directly into our SDKs and retail execution apps. When field reps or merchandisers capture shelf images, the AI-powered retail execution tool instantly provides feedback, ensuring every image meets the highest standards for retail audits and planogram compliance.

Here’s how it works:

• Real-Time Image Assessment – AI detects if an image is blurry, slanted, or obstructed, ensuring high-quality shelf monitoring.
• Guided Capture – Alerts users if lighting is poor or if a person is walking into the frame.
• ‍Category Framing – Ensures images capture the full shelf—from start to end of the category, aiding planogram compliance AI.

By solving image quality at the source, we ensure that downstream AI-powered analytics work

flawlessly—delivering faster, more accurate insights for retail execution.
