Success Story
How 85°C Bakery Café Enhanced Security & Operations with VORTEX
From decentralized, hard to manage to AI-Powered Cloud-Based Security & Insights
85°C Bakery Café, a renowned international bakery chain, sought a smarter, more efficient security solution to support its growing store network in the United States. Initially launching a proof-of-concept in five stores, the company is now expanding the VORTEX AI-powered surveillance system to all newly developed and remodeled locations. By replacing its outdated on-premises system, 85°C Bakery Café significantly improves security, operational insights, and reduces expensive on-premises maintenance costs across its store estate.
Challenges：Outdated Surveillance & Inefficient Store Management
Before implementing VORTEX, 85°C Bakery Café faced multiple pain points with its legacy security system：
High maintenance costs & inefficiencies
On-premises hardware required frequent physical store visits for troubleshooting, leading to delays and additional expenses.
Limited visibility & control
The previous system lacked centralized access, making it difficult to monitor events across multiple locations.
No event archiving
Inability to store and retrieve video footage led to operational blind spots and challenges in reviewing past incidents.
With an expanding store footprint, the need for a scalable, AI-driven solution became clear.
The Solution：AI-Powered Surveillance with VORTEX
By deploying VORTEX, 85°C Bakery Café transformed its security and operational management with：
Effortless Installation & Seamless Integration
VORTEX was easily installed across locations using existing low-voltage contractors, ensuring a smooth and cost-effective rollout. Where necessary, the system also enabled the reuse of ONVIF-compliant cameras, eliminating the need for a full hardware replacement.
Centralized Management & Unlimited Video Archival
With VORTEX’s cloud-based dashboard, 85°C Bakery Café now has full control over its surveillance system, allowing real-time monitoring and unlimited storage of event footage for better security and compliance.
AI-Powered Event Detection & Search
VORTEX’s advanced AI capabilities help store managers quickly locate relevant incidents—such as unusual activity, unauthorized access, or operational inefficiencies—without having to manually sift through hours of footage.
Future-Proof Security with Continuous Software Upgrades
85°C Bakery Café benefits from regular software enhancements included in its subscription, ensuring access to new AI features and security improvements at no additional cost. Additionally, with a five-year price and warranty guarantee, the brand secures long-term reliability and cost predictability.
By adopting VORTEX, 85°C Bakery Café has transformed its security operations and achieved significant improvements across multiple areas. The shift to a cloud-based surveillance system has led to substantial cost savings, as the company no longer needs to send technicians on-site for maintenance, reducing both time and operational expenses.
With centralized monitoring and unlimited video archival, store managers now have greater control over security and compliance, ensuring that every location is consistently protected. The integration of AI-powered event search has also drastically improved incident resolution speed, allowing staff to quickly identify and review key moments without sifting through hours of footage.
As VORTEX becomes the standard across all newly developed and remodeled stores, 85°C Bakery Café has successfully created a scalable security infrastructure, enabling seamless expansion while maintaining operational efficiency.
Results：A Smarter & More Efficient Security Strategy
Looking Ahead: Expanding Smart Surveillance Across More Locations
As 85°C Bakery Café continues to grow, VORTEX will play a vital role in enhancing store security, improving operational efficiency, and supporting future expansions.
