For licensed venue operators

Catch it before it's an incident.

OffTapWatch adds AI to the cameras you already have, flagging intoxication, age-check and aggression early — so your staff can step in before it escalates.

OffTapWatch detects risk cues — it doesn't identify individuals. No identity matching, no database, no facial recognition. How that works →

What it watches for

It's about what's happening — not who.

Intoxication & RSA

Movement and behaviour cues that suggest a welfare or RSA check is worth making — before it becomes an incident.

Age-check prompts

Broad uncertainty cues that suggest an ID check — based on behaviour and context, never facial recognition.

Aggression

Escalation cues like posture and group convergence, flagged early enough for staff to step in calmly.

How it works

An extra set of eyes, not a new camera system.

01

Your existing cameras

Works with the CCTV you already have — analog or IP. Suitability is checked during the walkthrough.

02

Edge AI unit

A small unit installed at the venue analyses the feeds on site.

03

Staff get the flag

An alert with a short clip and a recommended action, on the device behind the bar.

04

Your team makes the call

Act or dismiss — either way the response is logged to a clean audit trail.

Compliance

It watches what's happening. Not who.

"OffTapWatch detects risk cues — it doesn't identify individuals. No identity matching, no database, no facial recognition."

What that means in practice

  • The AI looks for behaviour — unsteady movement, escalating body language, crowding. It has no concept of who anyone is, and no list to check anyone against.
  • Analysis runs on a unit inside your venue. When something's flagged, your staff see a short clip of the moment — enough to make a call, nothing more.
  • Alert clips are encrypted, kept only as long as you configure, and used for human review and your audit trail. Security by design.
  • It can't tell you who walked in. It can tell you someone near the main bar probably needs a welfare check.

FAQ

Fair questions, straight answers.

Does it replace staff judgement?

No. The AI flags risk cues. Your team reviews the clip, makes the call and logs the outcome. It is decision support for your staff — not a legal shield, and not a compliance guarantee.

Do we need new cameras?

The system is designed to connect to existing CCTV — analog or IP — where possible. Suitability is checked during the walkthrough.

What about installation?

A compact unit is installed at the venue and connected to your existing camera system — the first unit covers up to 12 cameras. No rewiring of the venue, no replacing your CCTV. Install specifics are confirmed during the walkthrough.

What internet connection do we need?

It’s built for regional connections. The AI does its work on the unit inside your venue, so only short alert clips travel over your internet — not constant video streams. A typical venue broadband connection is fine; we confirm yours during the walkthrough.

What happens after a flag?

Staff get an alert with a short clip and a recommended action. They act or dismiss, and the response is logged to the venue audit trail.

Is this facial recognition?

No. OffTapWatch detects risk cues — it doesn't identify individuals. No identity matching, no database, no facial recognition.

What area do you service?

During our Foundation Venue stage we’re focused on NSW, QLD and VIC — regional and metro. Outside those states? Get in touch anyway and we’ll let you know where we’re up to.
