AlertTwin is a privacy-preserving, edge-based platform that unifies sensors, cameras, and building intelligence — powering proactive security and operational awareness without sending a single byte to the cloud.
The Problem
Traditional systems leave organizations reactive, fragmented, and dangerously dependent on vendors and cloud services.
By the time your team sees an alert, precious seconds are gone. Post-incident investigation is the default — not proactive prevention.
Cameras, sensors, access control, and building systems speak different languages. No single view of what's actually happening across your facility.
Sensitive footage stored off-premises, rigid annual contracts, and proprietary systems you can't customize, audit, or escape.
How It Works
AlertTwin operates across three tightly integrated layers — all running on your hardware, inside your perimeter.
Unified ingestion from thousands of sensors, cameras, and building systems — regardless of protocol or vendor.
Edge AI processing on local GPU hardware. Object detection, anomaly detection, multi-modal reasoning — no cloud, no latency, no data exfiltration.
Automated response, encrypted collaboration, and live situational dashboards — all coordinated in real time across your team and partner agencies.
Built on proven open-source components — Home Assistant, Matrix 2.0, Grafana, ClickHouse, MQTT, LiveKit, OpenWRT. No proprietary lock-in. Full auditability. Community-supported longevity. Deployers own their stack.
Capabilities
From a single campus to a federated network of sites — AlertTwin scales with your mission.
NVIDIA GPU-accelerated object detection, ALPR, crowd analysis, and anomaly detection — entirely on-premises. Reaction times faster than the human eye.
Thousands of sensors — panic buttons, environmental monitors, motion detectors, asset trackers, BMS feeds — normalized into a single self-describing data stream.
Decentralized architecture with end-to-end encryption. Operates in air-gapped or fully compromised network environments. Post-quantum ready.
Multiple AlertTwin deployments — campuses, agencies, facilities — securely federate for multi-jurisdictional incident response. Data shared only for incident duration, then revoked.
Automated drone dispatch on configurable triggers — perimeter breach, unauthorized vehicle, off-hours motion. Real-time aerial reconnaissance without dispatching personnel to remote areas.
Interactive geo-spatial floor plans with live sensor overlays, camera feeds, and tracked asset locations. Multi-site dashboard. AI assistant for real-time decision support during incidents.
Use Cases
AlertTwin adapts to the unique security profile of each facility — not the other way around.
Proactive threat detection across sprawling campuses. Automated panic-button response with real-time camera context delivered to police — within seconds of activation. FERPA-compliant by architecture. Validated with nationally recognized first-responder training institutes.
Secure monitoring of utilities, manufacturing facilities, and data centers with industrial protocol support. Air-gap capable for the most sensitive environments. Zero cloud dependency — your OT/IT data never leaves your control zone.
Interoperable multi-agency incident response with dynamically shared situational awareness — reverted on incident closure. Post-quantum mesh security. SAFETY Act certification pathway for qualified deployments.
Dual-use intelligence: security monitoring that shares infrastructure with building utilization analytics, energy optimization, and predictive maintenance. One platform, one installation, multiple ROI vectors.
Why AlertTwin
Most security platforms make trade-offs you shouldn't have to accept. AlertTwin doesn't.

In the Field
AlertTwin has been validated in real operational environments — not just labs.
AlertTwin deployed across a nationally recognized homeland security training campus serving 7,600+ law enforcement trainees annually. Integrated panic response, live camera relay to police, and drone-assisted perimeter monitoring validated in live scenarios.
32-channel sensor suite deployed at a large entertainment venue in coordination with DHS Science & Technology. Real-time AI analytics, multi-agency data sharing, and crowd monitoring — all on-premises, demonstrated during live events.
Deployed on a 7-acre controlled industrial facility — described internally as "flying jets in our own proving ground." Rapid prototyping, sensor validation, and security protocol testing before broader rollout.
Get Started
AlertTwin is built to deploy fast. We work directly with your team to install, configure, and validate the platform in your operational environment — typically within weeks, not months.
