York firm launches AI tool to track at-risk staff
Summarised from 2 outlets · Updated 14 Oct, 15:32 · Archive
Vismo, a York-based security firm, has launched an AI tool to help organisations protect employees and respond to emergencies worldwide.
Vismo, a York company specialising in tracking and security solutions, has launched Vismo AI to help organisations protect at-risk employees and manage emergencies globally. The tool was demonstrated at GSX 2026 in Atlanta.
The system integrates with the Vismo Locate and Protect app, allowing security teams to quickly gather information and take action using natural language commands such as 'draw me a geo-fence' or 'show me where my people are'. A live map interface displays real-time employee location updates, global threat and incident feeds, and active weather alerts to help teams identify risks and respond rapidly.
Tom Cowling, CEO of Vismo, said the AI answers are grounded in organisations' own data and live intelligence risk feeds rather than the open web. The system can deliver advice during incidents, provide evacuation updates and carry out actions like geo-fencing and mass notifications through a single message thread. All interactions with the AI are saved for future reference, allowing managers to revisit incident details days later.
