For airports

Your baggage system works.
It just can't see.

Retrofit visual identification onto the baggage handling system you already run — lane by lane, with no change to the workflow and no new passenger process.

What breaks today

Three gaps every baggage operation lives with.

No-reads become manual encoding.

When the ATR comes up empty, someone walks the belt — and the bag is already heading for the exception queue.

Responsibility is split across four parties.

Airport, airlines, ground handlers and security each hold a piece. Between them, nobody owns the full picture of the bag.

No single owner of the picture.

The data that exists is about custody, not the bag itself — so identity, condition and size fall through the cracks.

What you get

A data position you don't have today.

Fewer manual interventions

Visual identity resolves no-reads before the bag reaches the exception queue — fewer belts walked, fewer manual encodes.

Retrofit lane by lane

Runs on imagery from existing touchpoints. Start with one lane, prove it, expand — no rip-and-replace.

Privacy by design

Edge processing, baggage data only. No passenger images leave the building. GDPR/CCPA and IATA 753 aligned.

A new data position

Identity, condition and size become records you own — served to your systems through the BagTalk API.

FAQ

Integration & disruption.

Do we have to change the BHS or the passenger process?
No. BagBridge runs on imagery captured at touchpoints you already have, and retrofits lane by lane. There's no change to the sortation workflow or the passenger flow.
Where does processing happen, and what leaves the building?
Processing happens at the airport edge. The system works with baggage data only — no passenger images leave the building. It's GDPR and CCPA aligned, and IATA 753 aligned.
How disruptive is deployment?
You start with a single lane. We prove the numbers on your own traffic first, then expand — no rip-and-replace.
Who owns the data?
You do. Identity, condition and events are served to your existing systems through the BagTalk API.

Get started

Start with one lane.

We prove the numbers on your own traffic before you commit to anything wider.
