New Era of Public Security: Artificial Intelligence and Future Investments in Brazil

Brazil faces significant challenges in public security, with approximately 60% of homicides not being resolved according to data from the Institute Sou da Paz. Historically, this has been attributed to an over-investment in physical infrastructure such as cameras and vehicles. However, the current bottleneck is no longer a lack of data but rather the capacity to transform the abundance of available information into effective solutions. Herein lies the potential for artificial intelligence (AI) to revolutionize public safety. Pax, a company founded as Paladium in 2024 and recently rebranded as Pax, stands out by integrating an AI platform in the cloud that amplifies existing state capabilities, enabling faster and more efficient data processing. This technology functions as an intelligent assistant for police operations, helping with vehicle route reconstruction, identification of vehicles based on visual characteristics, and real-time cross-referencing of government databases. The result is a more agile and effective investigation, potentially reducing costs associated with crime to society at large.
