Guard Patrolling, sold as Guard Patrol Pro, is a cloud-based guard patrol and security management platform. It is built for security agencies, businesses and facility managers who need proof that guards completed their rounds, and it brings patrols, attendance, incidents and reporting into one system.
The product takes the place of paper registers and dedicated patrol reader devices. Guards use a mobile app on their own phones, and supervisors work from a cloud dashboard. The company positions this as security without extra hardware, with a focus on live accountability rather than reports compiled after the shift.
An agency admin registers the agency, adds patrol sites with GPS coordinates for geofencing, creates each guard, enrolls the guard's face and shares the app link with an agency code. Checkpoints are then generated as QR codes or set up as NFC tags and placed at locations such as gates, parking areas, equipment rooms and restricted areas.
Guards sign in with the agency code, receive scheduled patrol routes, clock in with GPS verification and scan checkpoints during rounds. Each scan is recorded with location, time and guard identity and syncs to the cloud dashboard in real time. Supervisors see who is on shift, where they are and what they have scanned, and receive an alert when a checkpoint is missed.
Patrol proof comes from QR and NFC scans backed by GPS and timestamps. Face verification at shift start and at sensitive checkpoints checks that the assigned guard is the person on site. Live GPS tracking, route tracking and geofencing give supervisors a view of guard movement during active shifts.
The platform also includes attendance with clock-in and clock-out, automated scheduling, smart route assignment and incident capture with photos, notes, GPS and timestamps. A one-tap SOS button lets guards raise an emergency alert. A daily email report summarizing rounds, missed checkpoints, attendance and incidents goes to agency owners and site managers, and checkpoints and scans are unlimited.

The guard takes a face check in the app at shift start and at sensitive checkpoints. It is matched against the guard's enrolled photo to confirm the assigned guard is on site.
