Expertise: Tackling Fraud, Loss, and Inefficiency in Self-Checkout

Self-checkout systems are essential for modern retail but often leave gaps in security and accuracy. Fraudulent activities, such as scanning high-value products under cheaper categories, and operational inefficiencies due to manual product identification were challenges faced by Novitus’ retail clients. These issues underscored the need for a robust solution focused on self-checkout fraud prevention and loss prevention while delivering faster, error-free transactions.

How Tiliter API and Developer Hub Enabled LookAI

Novitus LookAI self-checkout scale using AI product recognition

Novitus chose the Tiliter API to power its next-generation self-checkout product recognition system. Tiliter’s automated product recognition technology uses AI to instantly identify products placed on the scale. Integrated with the Datalogic Magellan 9800i scanner, LookAI streamlines the checkout process by automatically suggesting the correct product for selection.

The integration process was supported by the Tiliter Developer Hub, which provided Novitus developers with the tools and guidance needed to embed AI product recognition into their SmartPos systems seamlessly with minimal involvement by Tiliter.
