Construction Site Video Monitoring That Responds, Not Just Records
Autom pairs AI video analytics with live operators. When someone enters your site after hours, AI flags it, an operator verifies it and warns them over the speaker, and police are called if they stay. You control it all from the Autom app.

How Construction Site Video Monitoring Works
Every alert follows the same path, from the first sign of activity to police on the way. Most of it happens while the person is still on your site.
Detect
AI analytics flag a person or vehicle on site while the system is armed.
Verify
A live operator reviews the clip to confirm it's a real threat, not wind, animals or headlights.
Deter
The operator warns the person over the trailer's talk-down speaker while they're still on site.
Notify
You get a text notification with the option to dispatch police or disregard the alert.
Dispatch
If you don't respond, the operator uses their judgment on sending police, with a video-verified alarm.
Control Your Jobsite From Your Phone
The Autom app puts your site in your pocket. Arm or disarm the system, check live video and scroll a timeline of events to pull clips from any alarm.
Automatic Arming Around Your Work Hours
Set an arming schedule once and the system arms and disarms itself, so nobody has to remember at the end of a long day. Activity outside work hours gets caught, and the system stands down when your crew arrives.
AI Analytics That End Alert Fatigue
Recording-only cameras send alerts all night for wind, animals and headlights, until people stop checking them. Autom's AI analytics filter that out and keep the false alarm rate under 1%, so operators spend their time on real people and vehicles. Analytics are tuned to your site over the first 72 hours.
Monitoring Rules Built Around Your Site
No two jobsites run the same way, so operators don't treat them the same way.
Instructions for Your Site
Each site gets its own monitoring instructions. Operators know which activity is normal, such as snow plows or dumpster pickups, and don't dispatch on it.
Coverage That Changes With the Job
When tenants move into finished buildings, analytics can be limited to the construction fence so residents don't trigger alerts.
Footage and Records When You Need Them
After an incident, you need proof for police, your insurance carrier or the owner. Autom keeps it ready.
Alarm clips in the app
Every alarm is on your event timeline with the video clip attached.

Construction Site Video Monitoring FAQs
What is construction site video monitoring?
Construction site video monitoring is a service where live operators watch your jobsite cameras remotely and respond to threats as they happen. With Autom, AI analytics flag people and vehicles after hours, operators verify each alert, warn intruders over a talk-down speaker and call police with video if they stay.
How is live monitoring different from recording-only cameras?
Recording-only cameras capture a theft for you to find the next morning. Live monitoring has someone respond while the person is still on site, which is when a theft can still be stopped.
Will you call police every time something moves?
No. AI filters out wind, animals and headlights, and an operator verifies every alert first. Each site also gets its own instructions, such as no dispatch for snow plows or dumpster pickups.
Can I arm and disarm the system from my phone?
Yes. The Autom app lets you arm and disarm, view live video and pull clips from a timeline of events. You can also set an automatic arming schedule.
Can I get footage after an incident?
Yes. Alarm clips are on the app's event timeline. For times the system was disarmed, our team pulls the footage for you, and alarm records can include the monitoring station's call recording, operator number and reference number.
Is monitoring included in the trailer price?
Yes. Live monitoring is included in the monthly price, which starts as low as $1,450 per month. Every new site can start with a free 21-day field trial.
