How it works

From detection to lockdown to notification — automatically

Cameras that only record give you evidence after the fact. Our systems act in the moment, chaining four steps together in seconds.

Step 1

Detect

AI continuously scans every camera for weapons, forced entry, and dangerous behavior — no human watching required.

Step 2

Verify

A live monitoring agent confirms the threat in seconds, filtering out false alarms before anyone is disrupted.

Step 3

Lock down

Doors and gates lock instantly — one touch or fully automated — sealing off the threat across the whole site.

Step 4

Notify

Staff, residents, and first responders get instant alerts by text, voice, app, and PA — with a live camera feed.

Capabilities

A complete active-threat response system

We design each system around your property's real risks — then integrate detection, access, and notification so they work as one.

AI weapons detection

Identify brandished firearms and other weapons in real time, day or night, across your existing camera feeds.

Behavioral & anomaly alerts

Flag loitering, perimeter breaches, crowd surges, and after-hours activity before they become incidents.

One-touch & auto lockdown

Trigger a building- or campus-wide lockdown from a phone, panic button, or automatically on a verified threat.

Mass notification

Reach everyone at once — SMS, voice, mobile app, desktop, and PA — with role-based, location-aware alerts.

Live-agent monitoring

Professional agents verify alarms and can speak through on-site speakers or dispatch police on your behalf.

First-responder access

Give police and fire live camera feeds and floor plans so they arrive informed, not blind.

Vendor-neutral — we recommend the right platform for your property, never a one-size-fits-all box.
Who we protect

Tailored to your environment

The threat looks different on a school campus than in a high-rise lobby. We tailor detection and response to each — choose yours to see how.

From a K-12 lockdown drill to a late-night break-in at a warehouse — every plan starts with a walkthrough of your specific risks.
