Real results from communities just like ours

Proven Crime Deterrent

Studies show visible security cameras significantly reduce criminal activity. Criminals avoid neighborhoods with comprehensive surveillance coverage.

LAPD Partnership

LAPD has used Flock footage from nearby neighborhoods to solve crimes. Direct integration with law enforcement databases for real-time alerts.

"Just knowing that we have a way to deter crime, and if crime did happenβ€”we have a way to solve crime. That's the number one thing that I like."
