Cozaint, a pioneer in innovative video surveillance solutions, announces the launch of ALICE1™, the first self-contained video surveillance recording and storage system that provides businesses with decades of secure, affordable video retention.
By leveraging the proven reliability of Linear Tape Open (LTO) technology with a cloud-based search platform, ALICE1 makes it possible for organisations to store unlimited video footage at a fraction of the cost of traditional hard-drive solutions.
The growing storage crisis
Surveillance cameras are recording in higher key than ever before, but the cost of retaining video
Surveillance cameras are recording in higher resolution than ever before, but the cost of retaining video for the required time by regulators is skyrocketing. For industries such as cannabis, gaming, healthcare, and retail, failing to maintain long-term archives can result in fines, licence loss, frivolous litigation, or compliance violations.
ALICE1 directly addresses this challenge with a simple, scalable approach–each LTO8 tape costs under $70–can record petabytes of video, and last up to 30 years. Businesses can finally record at the highest resolution, full frame rate, continuously without any additional compression and keep every second, indefinitely.
Transforming the economics of video retention
- Up to 70% cost savings compared to expanding hard drive storage
- 30+ years of durability per tape, creating a permanent archive of evidence
- Scalable, pay-as-you-go growth just add a new ~$70 tape as needed
- Centralized management across multiple locations, ensuring compliance and operational efficiency
With ALICE1, multi-location businesses can record video locally, send tapes securely to a central archive, and quickly retrieve footage using Cozaint’s intuitive cloud-based search tool with no manual hunting required.
Customer-centered innovation
“Businesses shouldn’t have to choose between video quality and compliance,” said Jay Jason Bartlett, CEO of Cozaint.
“With ALICE1, we’ve eliminated the endless cycle of costly storage upgrades. For the first time, companies can affordably keep every second of video evidence —for years and years—without compromise.”
Video retention requirements
ALICE1 is designed to cut expenses by more than half and simplify compliance by making footage retrieval
Industry analysts and early evaluations advocate that ALICE1 can deliver dramatic reductions in storage costs while helping organisations feel confident in meeting strict regulatory mandates.
In sectors such as cannabis and healthcare -where video retention requirements are both lengthy and costly- ALICE1 is designed to cut expenses by more than half and simplify compliance by making footage retrieval timely.
A new standard for video surveillance storage
ALICE1 isn’t just about cost: it’s about compliance, confidence, and peace of mind.
- Cannabis businesses can easily meet strict multi-year retention requirements.
- Casinos can protect against fraud and disputes with decades of footage.
- Healthcare facilities can secure patient safety video for as long as required by law.
- Retailers can maintain continuous, high-resolution footage to combat shrinkage.
- Businesses can combat relentless litigation from false claims -such as slip and falls- by providing unlimited useable video evidence, not just the typical industry 30-days of highly compressed video
By making long-term storage affordable and accessible, ALICE1 sets a new benchmark for how organisations approach video evidence retention.
