Six focused tools. One mission: safer operations.

Purpose-built software for security firms, neighbourhood watches, emergency teams and the officers serving the public — privacy-by-design, POPIA-aligned, and field-ready.

MugShotter flyer - cross-firm incident lookup in 2 seconds

MugShotter

An operational identification aid for licensed security and accredited public-safety teams. An officer who has lawfully detained a person on a client site can check a face against a shared, cross-firm incident index.

  • A match returns only objective historical context (incident date, charges, contributing organisation) — never a verdict. It describes a "person of interest", never a "criminal".
  • We do not collect names, ID numbers or home addresses — facial biometric and incident data is handled under each member's framework (POPIA in SA; GDPR in the UK/EU; equivalents elsewhere).
  • Capture is post-detention only — no street scanning, no mass surveillance. Every read and write sits in a hash-chained, tamper-evident audit trail.
  • Runs on secure Hetzner infrastructure in Germany. We are the Operator/Processor; the organisation is the Responsible Party/Controller.

FirstWatch flyer - community safety and live dispatch

FirstWatch

A community-safety and dispatch platform for security firms, neighbourhood watches and emergency responders. It turns scattered phones into a coordinated control room.

  • Real-time control-room map with live unit positions, panic pins and active incidents; assign, chat and resolve from the dashboard.
  • Role-aware across EMS, Police, Security, Neighbourhood Watch and Civilian members, with patrol shifts and scene logging.

Aegis RF-Shield flyer - signal-jammer detector

Aegis RF-Shield

Turns a phone into a signal-jammer detector — for the GPS, GSM & Wi-Fi jammers used in vehicle theft and tracker defeat.

  • Detects GPS / GSM / Wi-Fi jamming, sounds an alarm, and a live on-screen radar points toward the source with a proximity beep that speeds up as you close in.
  • Runs 100% offline — no account, no login; the only internet touch is a one-off licence activation.
  • One licence, one phone at a time, movable to a new handset later. R49/month, cancel anytime.

DiskWatch flyer - vehicle licence-disc verifier

DiskWatch

A MugShotter-powered disk scanner that verifies a vehicle licence disc against its own barcode — a fast tell for forged, cloned or expired discs in the field.

  • Scans the disc's PDF417 barcode and reads the printed text, cross-checks them, and flags mismatches with an instant MATCH / VERIFY / MISMATCH verdict.
  • Also flags an expired disc.
  • Scanning runs fully offline — nothing leaves the phone. R49/month, cancel anytime.

Occurrence Log Book flyer - control-room incident logging

Occurrence Log Book

A digital occurrence book for control rooms and officers — the running incident register, done properly. Every entry is captured once and kept honest.

  • Append-only OB register — entries can be added but never silently edited or deleted, so the record stays trustworthy.
  • Roles, supervisor sign-off and a full audit trail on every action, with a live dashboard overview of the shift.
  • Built for control-room workflows, available on web and Android.

Web dashboard + Android app · control-room ready.

FamFind

Keep your circle close. A family & group location tracker — see everyone on one live map, know when they arrive at or leave the places that matter, and reach them fast when it counts.

  • Live map of your whole circle — real-time positions with battery & last-seen, plus up-to-a-week location history.
  • Places & geofence alerts — get notified when someone arrives at or leaves Home, School or Work, with one-tap SOS and "I'm safe" check-ins.
  • True background tracking on Android (high-accuracy GPS), runs in Safari on iPhone, and group admins manage their own family.
