EAIGLE Is Turning Existing Security Cameras Into 30-Second Gate Transactions

EAIGLE just closed a growth funding round on the back of 350% year-over-year growth, driven by an AI platform that leans on cameras yards and gates already have installed to push gate dwell times below 30 seconds, while reducing detention, claims and labor costs.
