Retail Loss Prevention:
Multi-Layered, Software-Based
There’s a new guard in town watching over your products and preventing shrinkage, and your customers won’t even realize he’s there.
Tough on Loss,
Tough on the Causes of Loss
There is a way to prevent shrinkage without the need for extra personnel, cameras, scales, or anything like that: shopreme sentry is built on a multi-layered approach, with Al powering a key layer, preventing shrinkage 4x more efectively than random methods – getting even better in the process.
Loss Prevention That Works
Behind the Scenes of Every Checkout
shopreme’s successful loss prevention solution is built on a unified, multi-layered strategy. Embedded into every shopreme solution, a refined, software-based selection process lies at the core of this approach. It continuously analyzes basket data, shopping patterns, and risk profiles in real-time to select shoppers for spot checks, ensuring that staff only intervene when necessary.
This holistic approach minimizes losses without interrupting customer journeys. Beyond the advanced core software, shopreme’s loss prevention stands on three powerful pillars:
- Technological
It has been observed that the rollout of Self-Checkout leads to an increase in shrinkage. - Psychological
At the moment, there are concepts and solutions in place which involve cameras or scales, both not ideal for the purpose. - Human
Cameras are usually expensive, error-prone, require configuration and can be tricked. Also, who likes being monitored or filmed?
Introducing
shopreme sentry
While every shopreme solution includes advanced loss prevention, the AI-powered add-on sentry continuously learns from transactions and basket behavior, enhancing detection precision over time.
Sentry can also be integrated as a stand-alone solution without other shopreme solutions. With sentry, you unlock the full potential of loss prevention by combining AI innovation with shopreme’s proven expertise in retail security.

The Supervisor App
To keep track of everything that’s going on in the store, the supervisor app will provide you with all necessary information.
The app provides employees with a real-time overview of customer flow and can help identify Scan & Go customers and higher-risk baskets more easily.
- Overview of all baskets in real-time
Never lose sight of all baskets currently active using Self-Checkout and recently paid in your store. - Notifications if action is due
Anytime an action is required by an employee, they will receive a notification. - Risk assessment algorithm
sentry’s retail loss prevention layers evaluate suspicious behavior and the risk of shrink based on custom parameters and past data – anonymous & GDPR-compliant. - Spot checks & smart re-scan
One a check has been triggered, the employee is notified to perform the check. During a guided, smart re-scan, the employee can mark the basket as OK or not OK. This flexibility takes, on average, 38 seconds.
Why Retailers Trust shopreme sentry
sentry is aware
Managing user expectations is one of the most important steps in any loss prevention strategy. Making customers aware of the security measures drastically reduces the likelihood of theft by clearly communicating, for example, the possibility of a spot check with an in-app reminder.
