Your cameras stream to ARGUS
A small ARGUS app runs on an always-on computer in your store that can see
your cameras. It sends the live video to ARGUS for analysis. It reaches us on
its own — no firewall changes or port forwarding required.

ARGUS watches and scores activity
ARGUS analyzes the live video and scores activity for how risky it looks.
Most of what happens in a store is normal and never needs your attention.
Separately, activity outside your normal operating hours may get extra
attention.

A confident detection becomes an incident
When ARGUS is confident that something is a real incident, it creates an
incident and immediately alerts your recipients by SMS and email.
Routine activity doesn’t generate alerts.

You review and act
Open the incident from your dashboard to see what happened. Confirm it if
it’s a real threat, or mark it a false positive. Every change is logged, and
your feedback helps you keep an accurate record of what’s happening in your
store.
A few things worth knowing
- ARGUS uses the cameras you already have. There’s no new hardware to buy — the ARGUS app connects to your existing cameras over your store’s network.
- ARGUS isn’t a video recorder. It’s not a replacement for your DVR or NVR. Your existing camera system keeps your recordings; ARGUS analyzes the live video to spot incidents. Video is encrypted and used only to provide your loss-prevention features.
- You stay in control. You decide who gets alerted and you make the final call on every incident — ARGUS surfaces what matters, you confirm or dismiss it.
