Gaize

Gaize is a pioneering technology company dedicated to enhancing workplace and road safety amidst the growing legalization of cannabis and the prevalence of other impairing substances. It offers a sophisticated, real-time impairment detection system that provides an objective, accurate, and scientifically defensible method for screening. Unlike traditional drug tests that detect the mere presence of a substance, Gaize focuses on identifying current impairment, addressing a critical gap for employers who need to ensure their workforce is fit for duty. The technology is built upon 45 years of proven science from Drug Recognition Expert (DRE) eye examinations, now automated and enhanced with artificial intelligence and machine learning for unparalleled accuracy and objectivity.

The Gaize system is designed for businesses of all sizes, from Fortune 500 corporations to small enterprises, particularly in safety-sensitive industries. It empowers companies to create fair and effective drug policies that distinguish between responsible, off-duty use and on-the-job impairment. This approach not only significantly boosts safety but also helps in retaining skilled employees who might otherwise be terminated based on outdated testing methods.

How to use Gaize

The Gaize platform is engineered for simplicity and speed, delivering actionable results in just 6 minutes through a straightforward three-step process:

1. Capture: The individual wears a VR-style headset which administers a series of automated eye tests. In this phase, the device captures high-precision ocular data, including eye movement, pupil size, and head movement, along with video evidence of the testing session.
2. Analyze: The captured data is instantly and automatically uploaded to the cloud and processed by Gaize's proprietary impairment detection models. These models leverage advanced machine learning and statistical algorithms to analyze the ocular data for subtle signs of impairment, with no need for an expert to interpret the raw data.
3. Report: Within moments, a comprehensive report is generated and made available on the Gaize dashboard. This report provides a clear, easy-to-understand result, indicating whether impairment was detected. It includes downloadable PDF reports and video evidence, which can be used to support decision-making and are legally defensible.

• High Accuracy: Boasts over 98% accuracy in detecting signs of impairment for each drug category, often surpassing traditional drug tests.
• Objective Evidence: Provides automated, unbiased data and video evidence, eliminating the subjectivity of manual reasonable suspicion evaluations.
• Rapid Results: The entire test, from start to finish, takes only 6 minutes, providing immediate results compared to the days required for lab-based tests.
• Non-Invasive and Hygienic: Requires no bodily fluids (like urine or saliva) or compromising biometric information, ensuring a safer and more private testing experience.
• Legally Defensible: Based on the same scientific principles used by law enforcement for decades, the tests have a strong foundation of legal and scientific validation.

Use Cases for Gaize

Gaize is a versatile tool for any organization focused on safety and fair employment practices. Key use cases include:

• Reasonable Suspicion Testing: Provides objective evidence to confirm or deny suspicions of on-the-job impairment, strengthening HR and safety protocols.
• Post-Accident Screening: Quickly determine if impairment was a factor in a workplace incident to guide subsequent actions.
• Deterrent Program: The ability to conduct frequent, low-cost tests acts as a powerful deterrent, encouraging employees to make responsible choices.
• Fair Policy Implementation: Enables companies in states with legal marijuana to differentiate between past use and current impairment, protecting responsible employees from unfair termination.
• Improving Hiring and Retention: Attracts and retains talent by promoting a culture of safety and respect, rather than a punitive one. A case study with Accurate Marine Environmental showed an 80% reduction in reasonable suspicion cases and a 1,579% ROI in one year.
