Child Guard

This agent, Child Guard, is an autonomous agentic AI solution that detects, prevents, and eliminates child labour in global manufacturing supply chains. It combines video analytics, document processing, and real-time data intelligence so brands, NGOs, and regulators can flag risks, trigger compliance audits, and protect vulnerable children at scale. It detects child labor risks in factory CCTV feeds using Vision AI, alerts compliance officers and NGOs, escalates high-risk cases automatically if they go unacknowledged, and accepts crowdsourced whistleblower reports.

The agent de-risks brand reputation, improves ESG scores, and helps prevent regulatory penalties. Reported impact includes automating 80%+ of child labour risk detection, reducing manual compliance effort and cost by 50%, and increasing verification rates by 60–70%, with real-time monitoring of 24/7 operations. Its primary users are multinational manufacturers, large retail brands, NGOs and watchdog organizations, and government regulatory bodies. It is built with Vertex AI Agent Builder (Dialogflow CX), Vertex AI Vision API, Document AI, BigQuery, Cloud Functions, Cloud Run, and Pub/Sub.
