About us
What we do

At Fyma, we are transforming commercial real estate (CRE) with advanced computer vision and AI solutions. In an industry known as the largest asset class in the world, but often plagued by poor data quality or - in many cases - no data at all, we believe the future of CRE lies in better insights, smarter decisions, and truly data-driven spaces.

The challenge

Commercial real estate is notoriously slow to adopt new technology, but it’s a sector with enormous untapped potential. Many businesses rely on inaccurate data from low-quality sensors or outdated methods like manual reporting. This leads to inefficiencies, wasted resources, and missed opportunities. At Fyma, we are leading the charge to change that narrative, unlocking new possibilities for an industry ripe for transformation.

The solution

We provide real-time, high-quality data through advanced vision analytics using already existing CCTV cameras, no new hardware required. Whether it’s optimising building performance, enhancing tenant experiences, or driving leasing and retail insights, our data is accurate, relevant, and actionable. No more guesswork—just reliable information to help you make better decisions. It is really something special when people realise how magically simple it is to set it all up, to really ‘see’ the AI working and get insights of what is happening inside their spaces - and then start applying this knowledge in day-to-day operations.
