Patrols & Guard Tours

    A patrol that isn't scanned didn't happen.

    Geofenced checkpoints, task-gated stops, and real-time alerts on missed rounds — so a skipped patrol surfaces at 2:31 a.m., not in Friday's report.

    Checkpoint-verified rounds

    Every waypoint on a route carries a geofence and a scan requirement, so presence is verified rather than asserted. At the stop, the guard captures what you asked for — photos, video, notes — and each item is stamped with GPS coordinates and the time it was taken. The result is a round you can reconstruct hours or months later, stop by stop, with the evidence attached where it belongs.

    • Waypoints with geofence plus scan verification
    • Photo, video, and notes captured at the stop
    • Every item stamped with GPS and time

    Task-gated stops

    The next stop doesn't unlock until this one's tasks are actually done. Check the door, photograph the loading dock, log the reading — then move on. That single behaviour is the difference between a tour app that records someone walking a building and a platform that enforces the work your contract says you perform. When a client asks whether the checks were completed, the answer is a record, not a reassurance.

    • Required tasks must be completed to advance the round
    • Enforces contracted work, not just movement
    • Incomplete stops are visible instead of invisible

    Missed-scan alerts, in the moment

    A missed round found on Friday is a report. A missed round found while the shift is still running is a save. Supervisors get alerted in real time when a scan window passes without a scan, so someone can call, redirect, or cover before the gap becomes a client complaint. The same alert stream feeds the exception review, so patterns — one post, one guard, one hour of the night — become obvious quickly.

    • Real-time supervisor alerts on missed scan windows
    • Catch the skipped round at 2:31 a.m., not on Friday
    • Alerts roll up into exception review for patterns

    Routes built by AI, run by humans

    The route builder lets you lay out checkpoints, sequences, and timing windows per site, with AI route optimization suggesting an order that covers the property sensibly instead of doubling back. You review it and approve it — the software proposes, your supervisors decide. Patrol shift offers extend the marketplace to patrol coverage, so an unfilled route gets claimed the same way an unfilled post does.

    • Supervisors review and approve every route
    • Patrol shift offers cover unfilled routes

    Vehicle patrols included

    Mobile patrol work belongs in the same record as everything else. Vehicle inspections, mileage and condition checks, multi-site drive routes, and per-stop documentation run through the same workflow as a foot round, so a mobile contract is evidenced exactly like a stationary one. When a vehicle claim or a client dispute lands, the inspection and the stop history are already there.

    • Vehicle inspections captured on shift
    • Multi-site mobile patrol routes with per-stop evidence
    • One evidence record across foot and vehicle patrols

    How it feeds the proof loop

    Everything on this page ends up in the same place: an evidence record you can hand to a client, an auditor, or a lawyer.

    1. 01

      The route defines what a complete round looks like at this site.

    2. 02

      Scans, geofences, and task gates verify each stop as it happens.

    3. 03

      Missed or late stops raise an exception the same shift.

    4. 04

      The verified round flows into the client report and the billing record.

    Works with vehicle inspections

    On mobile patrol shifts, the vehicle inspection happens at clock-in and again at clock-out, so the round and the condition of the vehicle that ran it sit in the same record.

    Questions operators ask

    Capture is offline-tolerant. Scans, photos, notes, and task completions are recorded on the device with their original timestamps and GPS data, then sync when the device reconnects. Dead zones in a stairwell or a basement don't cost you the evidence.
