GETTING STARTED / QUICKSTART

Quickstart

VisionEngine brings computer vision, AI analytics, and structured data pipelines into one platform. Every branch gets its own isolated data schema, a live dashboard, and an edge node — you can connect any data source, not just cameras.

infoYou don't need cameras to get started. Any structured data — POS systems, IoT sensors, ERPs, CSV imports — can feed a branch dashboard.

1 · Connect a data source

After a branch is created, push data into its schema. This can come from an edge node, a script, or any external system with access to the branch API key.

sql
-- Push data into a branch schema
INSERT INTO "acme_branch_c3484f31".orders
  (id, customer_id, total, created_at)
VALUES
  (gen_random_uuid(), 'CUST-001', 284.50, NOW());

2 · Query live data

Every dashboard widget can run a live SQL query against the branch schema. Add a source object to the widget config — the platform validates the table and returns data to the frontend automatically.

json — widget source config
{
  "title": "Revenue (7d)",
  "unit": "USD",
  "source": {
    "from":         "orders",
    "select_value": "ROUND(SUM(total)::NUMERIC, 2)",
    "where":        "created_at > NOW() - INTERVAL '7 days'"
  }
}

3 · Build a dashboard

Open the branch and add widgets — KPI cards, charts, gauges, heatmaps, alert lists, or live CV feeds. The 12-column grid lets you compose any layout. Widgets refresh on each page load.
