Detect. Verify. Resolve. Report.
The operating record is the product — coverage you can audit the way you audit a rent roll.
STG-01
Detect
Continuous
Autonomous drones fly scheduled sweeps — an overnight cadence of every 45 minutes per property — while AI video analytics screen fixed cameras for unauthorized persons: trespass, loitering, after-hours activity.
STG-02
Verify
<60 seconds
Every alert is reviewed by a human operator in the 24/7 operations center. False positives are closed at the desk; confirmed activity is graded, logged, and queued for response. No automated system ever makes contact with a subject.
STG-03
Resolve
<4 min avg
The nearest licensed patrol officer is dispatched to remove unauthorized persons and clear the area. Where circumstances warrant, the desk coordinates law-enforcement escalation with live video shared to responding units.
STG-04
Report
By 06:00
Each incident closes with a timestamped report — detection, verification, response, outcome — delivered to the property manager and retained in an exportable audit trail.
A guard covers one spot. We cover the whole site.
You’ve been let down by security before. Here’s what changes.
- CoverageOne guard, one post at a time.The whole site — from the air, the ground, and inside.
- AccountabilityCan sleep, skip a round, or not show.Every flight and dispatch logged, to the minute.
- VerificationA judgment call, alone, in the moment.A 24/7 human desk verifies every alert first.
- ResponseAs fast as one person can walk.Drone overhead in <90s; officer in <4 min.
- The recordA paper logbook, maybe.An exportable audit trail on your desk by 06:00.
- EscalationConfrontation, or a call to 911.97% resolved on site — police only when warranted.
The cost of doing nothing
One prevented incident pays for months of coverage.
Coverage starts at $2,400/mo. A single theft, a stalled job, or a lost tenant costs far more.
Request a site assessmentOne copper theft
Stripped wire and conduit runs into five figures — plus the re-work and the days it takes.
One stalled job
A stolen transformer or generator doesn't just cost the equipment. It stops the schedule.
One vacancy
Tenants and shoppers leave properties that feel unsafe. Vacancy is the most expensive outcome in commercial real estate.
What a resolved incident looks like.

Of incidents closed without police involvement. Sentinel officers resolve the overwhelming majority of what the cameras find — quietly, on site, and on the record. When law enforcement is warranted, they arrive to live video and a prepared file. It rarely is.
