Outpost · Guarding Tools

The tools your guards need are already on site.

Outpost replaces expensive and outdated hardware with guarding tools on WhatsApp and Telegram. Half the cost. No new hardware.

§ 01 · DEMO
Try it

Access control and patrol, inside the chat your guards already use.

Start a WhatsApp Flow or Telegram mini app, capture the work on the phone, and watch it land in the operator duty station.

Guard phone to duty station

Scan in the chat. Record in the table.

A guard opens the WhatsApp Flow or Telegram mini app, captures the licence disc and person details, and Outpost writes a structured access-control row for the operator.

§ 02 · PROBLEM
The industry runs on old technology

You're paying R1,000 a month per site for old software and devices you don't need to own.

Cost
R20,000 per month

For 20 sites. Just to rent scanners.

Reliability
“Everyone understands WhatsApp”

No uptime issues or frequent firmware updates required, and training takes minutes.

Proof
A confusing pdf gets lost in your inbox

Clients get patchy manual reports that make it difficult to verify guard activity.

Overload
100 unstructured WhatsApp groups.

Critical information gets lost in ops and community groups. Incidents that could have been prevented sit unread in the noise.

§ 03 · GUARDING TOOLS
One phone replaces three devices

Access control. Patrol. Roster.
All on the smartphone you already have on site.

01 · ACCESS

Access Control

Licence disc · driver ID · national database

Guards photograph the licence disc. Outpost reads it, checks SAPS, replies in seconds. Flagged vehicles fire Alert Flows to the control room.

WhatsAppTelegram
02 · PATROL

Patrol Management

Geofenced · GPS current-location · routes

“Are you awake?” check-ins and full multi-point routes. Guards must physically be inside the geofence else the control room gets notified.

Check-inRoute patrol
03 · ROSTER

Roster Management

Shifts · device-to-person · change requests

Schedule shifts across sites, map guards to site phones, handle change requests over WhatsApp. Easy Roster integrations available. Payroll integration coming.

Multi-siteWhatsApp requests
04 · GROUP AGENTS
