    Body-cam coverage on incidents

Security firms running 24/7 ARC operations are still juggling phones, radios and three screens. We replace the legacy tour systems (Deister, Guardhouse) with NFC, add voice-first dispatch so monitoring staff stay hands-free, and overlay the police.uk crime feed so guards know what's already happening at the address they're responding to.

Why teams switch

The pain points your existing stack misses.

  • Deister / Guardhouse tour hardware breaks and gets stolen
  • ARC operators saturated by phones, radios and screens
  • Guards responding to alarms with no idea of nearby active incidents
  • Body cam evidence not linked to the SOS trigger that needed it
  • Patrol-route compliance impossible to prove to insurance
  • Lone female guards on overnight commercial sites with no proximity check
Killer features

Built specifically for security firm.

NFC patrol checkpoints

Tap pucks at each waypoint; missed tap escalates to dispatch automatically.

Voice-first dispatch

"Acknowledge Marcus." "Escalate David Chen step two." Hands-free console.

Live crime overlay

police.uk + open 999 data overlaid on the patrol map — context before arrival.

Body-cam on SOS

Camera auto-records 60s pre-roll and streams live to ARC when an SOS fires.

Lockdown timer

Site-wide lockdown countdown with auto-dispatch if not cancelled.

Site induction (QR/NFC)

Visitors tap or scan to complete induction; signed terms before site access.

Included on every plan

The platform underneath the Security pack.

Sector packs add the workflow; this is the operational layer every customer gets regardless of vertical — billing, comms, AI dispatch and trust signals.

Multi-channel SOS cascade

Push + SMS + WhatsApp + voice fan-out in parallel. AI re-ranks responders by distance + role + rationale before dispatch.

AI Virtual Watcher

Three Claude-powered flows: SOS narrative + mandatory ack, PPE/cert gap detection, proactive welfare pings.

Comms allowance + bundles

Monthly SMS / WhatsApp / voice quotas included. Overage auto-bills; pre-buy bundles for cheaper rates. SOS always sends.

Admin broadcasts + inbox

One-to-many alerts to any worker subset, ack-tracked for regulator evidence. Per-worker channel prefs respected.

Trust + verify panel

At-a-glance integrations status and a dry-run test SOS so you can prove the dispatch before betting a real shift on it.

Audit ledger (HMAC-signed)

Every action stamped to ID + timestamp + UUID. Regulator-ready PDF export with one click.

Stripe billing + Customer Portal

Per-active-worker pricing. 14-day trial, no card up-front. Self-serve plan changes and bundle top-ups.

REST + Webhook API

Push incidents into ServiceNow / RIDDOR-to-HR / SIEM (Splunk, Datadog, Elastic). GraphQL on Enterprise.

No signal? Still covered.

Your workers lose signal. Their safety net doesn't.

Out on site, in the cab, deep in a valley — security firm teams hit blackspots exactly where an incident is most likely. An SOS still counts with no signal: it's saved on the phone with its last location and fired automatically the moment coverage returns, timestamped for the audit ledger. And where the phone has Emergency SOS via satellite, Vygard points the worker straight into it. No £200 messenger to issue, charge or remember — it's the phone every worker already carries.

How off-grid coverage works

Blackspot-proof store-and-forward

SOS raised with no signal is saved with its timestamp and last GPS fix, then delivered the instant a bar returns — logged to the audit ledger, nothing lost.

Satellite, built into the phone

Newer iPhones and Androids include Emergency SOS via satellite. With no signal, Vygard surfaces it at the critical moment — no extra hardware, no second network.

Pair a communicator — optional

Truly remote crews can pair a Garmin inReach or similar. Optional — for most workers the phone is already the safety net.
