Synaedge Logo

Synaedge is a Swiss cloud and service provider specializing in AI video analytics. We combine our own cloud infrastructure, security-relevant AI models, and 24/7 services into an integrated platform for the DACH market.


We build solutions for real people in real situations—for sales staff standing alone at the checkout late in the evening, and for companies that care about their employees.

Who we are

Synaedge is a European specialist for operating AI video analytics.

What sets us apart from classic security providers: We are not installers, not a security guard company, and not a pure hardware reseller. We are the only German-speaking Advanced Certified Vaidio partner in the DACH region. This gives us access to the most mature AI vision platform on the market, with 21 AI modules and over 3,000 object classes.

Technology with substance

With our Vaidio AI Vision Platform, we consciously rely on a platform that combines real-time analysis, scalable processing, and forensic evaluation within one system.

Operation instead of just delivery

We do not deliver isolated software; instead, we actively operate systems—integrated into existing infrastructures and designed for long-term use.

Infrastructure as a Foundation

Synaedge itself operates the technical infrastructure behind AI video analysis and thereby enables controlled, privacy-focused systems independently of classic hyperscalers.

What drives us

Security isn’t only for the big players.

Highly specialized AI analysis platforms were previously a privilege of authorities, banks, and large corporations. Their complexity and price made them out of reach for smaller businesses. Yet it is precisely these businesses that experience the threat most directly in an emergency: pharmacies, petrol stations, businesses with long opening hours and little staff.

We believe: Anyone who takes care of people’s well-being has the same right to modern security as a DAX Group.

Our Story

We are a cloud and service provider with security expertise

Long before AI video analytics and data sovereignty became central topics, the team behind Synaedge worked on highly available systems, data center operations, data protection, networking, and the secure operation of critical IT infrastructures—deliberately independent of US clouds and traditional hyperscalers.
