Anomaly Detection

Void spikes, sales drops, cash anomalies — statistical detection against each branch's own baseline, with instant alerts.

How Does It Work?

From your POS data to anomaly detection in 4 steps

1

Baseline Learning

A normal behaviour profile is built from each branch's history, learning metrics such as void rate, average sales and cash percentage.

2

Z-Score Detection

Live data is compared with the baseline, and values that deviate markedly from the standard deviation are flagged as anomalies.

3

air AI Explanation

The detected anomaly is analysed by air AI and turned into a plain-English explanation the manager can act on.

4

Mobile Notification

The explanation and recommendations reach the branch manager instantly through the mobile app, and the event is recorded.

Types of Anomaly Detected

aiR intelligence continuously monitors these anomaly types

Void Spike

A sudden rise in the void rate is detected. It can point to theft, manipulation or a training gap.

Sales Drop

Sudden falls against expected sales volume are detected. They can signal an operational problem, understaffing or a technical fault.

Cash Anomaly

Unusual shifts in the share of cash payments are detected, and the risk of fraud or a till shortfall is assessed.

Excessive Discounting

A clear rise in discount rates against the norm is detected, pointing to a loss of control or unauthorised discounting.

A Real Scenario

The full story of one anomaly detection, start to finish

Normal

Void rate: 0.5%

The Kadıköy branch's average void rate over the last 30 days is calculated at 0.5%.

Detection

Void rate: 2.2% (z-score: 3.4)

Around lunchtime today the void rate jumped to 2.2%. A z-score of 3.4 means it sits 3.4 standard deviations away from normal.

Analysis

air AI produces an explanation

"The void rate at your Kadıköy branch has risen 340% in the last three hours. Nine of the 12 voids were done by the same cashier. That cashier's training should be checked."

Notification

Mobile notification sent

A mobile notification went instantly to branch manager Mehmet. The event was written to the ai_events table.

Resolution

Issue resolved

The manager went to check. It turned out the new cashier was using the void process incorrectly. After training, the void rate returned to normal.

Our Approach

Statistical detection instead of fixed-threshold checks

Intelligent Detection with aiR intelligence

  • Z-score: detection against each branch's own normal
  • A baseline profile per branch
  • A low false alarm rate
  • A plain-English explanation from air AI
  • Instant notification through the mobile app

Frequently Asked Questions

aiR intelligence builds a 'normal' profile (baseline) from each branch's historical data, then compares live data against that profile using the z-score method. There is no fixed threshold — what is detected is deviation from each branch's own normal.

Void spikes (possible theft or manipulation), sudden sales drops (operational trouble), cash ratio anomalies (a fraud signal), excessive discounting (loss of control) and unexpected shifts in payment method.

When an anomaly is detected, air AI produces an explanation in plain English and the branch manager is notified instantly through the mobile app. The event is written to the ai_events table and the feedback loop keeps the system learning.

A z-score based statistical method produces far fewer false alarms than a simple threshold check. Because each branch's own standard deviation is calculated, a mall branch and a high street branch are judged by different yardsticks.

No extra installation. Data is pulled from your robotPOS system and analysed automatically. After a minimum of two weeks of accumulated data the baseline is built and anomaly detection goes live.

Kahve Dünyası

"The story of the Köfteci Ramiz brand is the story of two orphaned brothers who migrated from Macedonia to Türkiye at the start of the 19th century. Having lost their mother in infancy and with their father taken prisoner in the Battle of Çanakkale, the brothers settled in Akhisar, a district of the Aegean. There they served grilled meatballs in the style they had learned in Macedonia, alongside a special flatbread made from fresh-yeast dough. They opened their first shop in 1928 in Akhisar — a tiny place with four tables. After Ramiz Usta passed away in 1970, his four sons continued to keep their father's name alive. In 2000 they opened their second branch, again in Akhisar, on the İzmir–İstanbul highway. That second branch became a springboard, and in 2006 the first İstanbul branch opened in Levent Çarşı. The Köfteci Ramiz brand continues to grow, today with 150 branches in 31 provinces."
