llium IQ is an early-stage AI security startup building intelligent agents that run on camera networks. Our agents think, remember, and act, understanding continuity, identity, and behavior across multiple cameras in real time. This turns raw video into smarter alerts, better reporting, and more effective enterprise security. Most camera systems still treat every frame in isolation. They can detect a person, but they cannot tell you it is the same person seen an hour ago on a different camera, or reason about what that pattern means. That is the hard problem we are solving: real-time person re-identification and reasoning across large, messy, multi-camera environments. Under the hood we combine modern computer vision, vector search, and large-scale video processing into a product that runs reliably in the real world, not just in a lab. There is deep technical work at every layer, from GPU inference pipelines to the web application security teams use every day. Allium IQ is founded and led by Trilochan Verma (VT), a deep-tech entrepreneur with 20+ years of experience across Samsung's Advanced Technology Group, Infosys, and multiple patent-backed innovations. We are a small, focused team that ships fast and gives engineers real ownership from day one. If you want to work on hard problems in AI and security, and see your work reach customers quickly, we would love to talk.

We service retail online and b2b to shops around the world. Using that customer access to promote stuff we enjoy like independent music and small businesses. Experimenting with machine learning and bots to improve the customer experience and stay ahead of the competition/future pandemics. We are also implementing in-house manufacturing in Queens. Currently in the DFMA phase while moving to full automation is the goal. The product line is sustainable with recycled and hemp composites. 98% less plastic than the competition and Made in NYC rather than China. Our company name is purposely obtuse. This way we can find the best candidates for open positions rather than someone who may want to work in our niche industry for all the wrong reasons ¯\_(ツ)_/¯.
