GetReal Security Launches Automated Forensic Analysis Platform to Help Defend Against AI-Powered Deception, Deepfake Fraud, and Identity Manipulation

Published

Unified platform offers solutions and services to help effectively manage risk and mitigate attacks from new types of AI-fueled attacks

SAN MATEO, Calif., March 26, 2025 /CNW/ — GetReal Security, the cybersecurity leader specializing in the detection and mitigation of malicious generative AI threats, including deepfakes and impersonation attacks, announced the launch of its unified platform to help enterprises, government agencies and media organizations manage risk and mitigate threats from the growing presence of AI-fueled attacks. The platform brings together GetReal’s products and service offerings into a unified digital experience for users, providing the infrastructure to accommodate all modalities (image, audio and video) for both files and real-time digital communication streams.      

“The threat of deepfakes and manipulated media is more than one expert can handle alone. That’s why we developed our suite of leading digital forensic and cybersecurity solutions and services to protect enterprises, governments, and media,” said Dr. Hany Farid, Co-Founder of and Chief Science Officer at GetReal. “By developing a suite of digital forensic and cybersecurity capabilities that asynchronously and synchronously analyze images, audio, and video, we are empowering organizations across industries to figure out what’s real and what’s not and restore confidence in times of critical decision-making.”

As enterprises, governments and media organizations increasingly rely on images, audio, and video for critical decision making, there is a vested interest in ensuring the information they act on is accurate. This requires a shift in focus to the presentation layer of digital content—spanning images, audio, and video—to verify and authenticate what is real and what is fake. Legacy tools and traditional security trainings fail to address these multi-modal AI-generated threats accurately and in real-time. GetReal’s platform provides a comprehensive approach to verifying the authenticity of digital communications helping to detect deepfakes, reduce risk, and prevent data compromise and fraud. By verifying and authenticating content, the platform empowers customers to confidently use images, audio, and video in business-critical decisions.

“Protecting the modern digital enterprise demands a more holistic approach—one that goes beyond traditional tools and considers the full spectrum of malicious digital media and AI-driven threats. Enterprises, governments, and media organizations need to trust the digital content they rely on, both inside and outside their networks,” said Jim Brennan, Chief Product & Technology Officer at GetReal. “Our platform brings everything together, providing a unified solution that authenticates images, audio, and video in real-time. With advanced forensics analysis and expert on-demand assistance, we’re equipping enterprises with the capabilities they need to detect deepfakes, mitigate risk, and make critical decisions with confidence.”

GetReal’s platform integrates its services and products into a single, cohesive platform for its users. Featuring a web-based UI, API access, and third-party integrations, it automates media analysis using AI, statistical methods, and digital forensics. Services and solutions include:

GetReal Prepare provides organizations with a holistic view of current threat exposure through its readiness assessment. GetReal’s cybersecurity veterans work with executive leadership to formulate an organization-wide action plan that includes policy development and awareness training for the organization.  GetReal Inspect empowers organizations to safeguard their executives, employees and their brand with automated, on-demand forensic analysis to authenticate and verify audio, video, voice and image files.GetReal Protect delivers real-time analysis and alerts of audio and video streams to prevent bad actors at the onset before they can infiltrate an organization and cause further damage.GetReal Respond helps organizations deal with complex incidents requiring the highest level of forensic analysis, and leverages GetReal’s team of digital forensics experts and investigators for advanced analysis.

In addition to the debut of its new cloud-native platform, GetReal announced its $17.5M Series A today to further invest in R&D, product development and go-to-marketing operations.

Chef Robotics Physical AI Models Can Now Automate Baked Goods Packing

Published

on

By

SAN FRANCISCO, April 29, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Chef Robotics, a leader in physical AI for the food industry, today announced that Chef robots can now automate tray assembly for baked goods packing. The application places baked products, such as burger buns, chocolate chip cookies, biscotti, butter cookies, biscuits, fortune cookies, granola bars, rusks, and shortbreads into trays and packaging containers before sealing.

Watch Chef robots in action.

Baked goods packing has historically been difficult to automate for high-mix production. Each item behaves differently on the production line—a granola bar compresses under the wrong grip, while a biscotti or rusk can crack if placed at the wrong angle. Surface textures range from glazed and smooth to crumbly and irregular, and strict presentation requirements leave little room for error. This variability has made it challenging for automation systems to reliably handle baked goods at production speeds, leaving food manufacturers dependent on manual labor and traditional bakery equipment.

To address this, Chef built its baked goods packing application on its existing piece-picking capability, which uses Chef’s AI-powered computer vision and physical AI models trained across diverse real-world production environments. This allows Chef robots to assess each item’s position, shape, and orientation in real time and determine how to pick the items from the pan and place them quickly and precisely without damaging them.

The baked goods packing application supports four distinct placement capabilities.

First, Chef’s vision system detects the angle at which each item sits in the pan and reorients it after picking, placing it on the tray at the exact angle required, regardless of its original position, enabling retail-ready presentation for SKUs that require precise angular placement.

Second, Chef robots can place multiple baked goods into the same packaging container in a single automated pass, completing full tray assembly without manual intervention.

Third, for packaging containers with multiple small compartments, Chef robots can precisely place items into each designated section, including multiple items in the same compartment, using Chef’s AI vision model to detect compartment positions and orientations in real time.

Fourth, Chef’s vision system identifies the exact center of each tray and places every item at a predefined offset from that center, ensuring a uniform, consistent arrangement across every pack regardless of how trays arrive on the conveyor.

For food manufacturers evaluating bakery systems and baked goods packaging automation, the application offers higher throughput, reduced labor dependency, and consistent presentation across shifts. The capability runs on Chef’s existing robotic hardware and software, allowing manufacturers to deploy it without requiring any changes to their production lines.

Chef’s baked goods packing application is available in the U.S., Canada, Germany, and the UK and is included as part of Chef’s robotics-as-a-service (RaaS) pricing model.

About Chef Robotics
Chef is the first company to have commercialized a scalable AI-driven food robotics solution. With over 104 million servings made in production, Chef leverages ChefOS, an AI platform for food manipulation, to offer a Robotics-as-a-Service solution that helps industry-leading food companies increase production volume and meet demand. Headquartered in San Francisco, CA, Chef aims to empower humans to do what humans do best by accelerating the advent of intelligent machines. Visit https://chefrobotics.ai to learn more.
