Scheduling, live coverage, patrols and operational records.

Read the video text and visual description

This illustrated overview uses instrumental music, with no spoken narration. The sites, names, and figures shown are demonstration examples.

  1. Command tower. A blue tower connects to several site buildings. On-screen text introduces “A command tower for your security operation” and “Every site, guard and post in one calm view.”
  2. Scheduling. A schedule highlights coverage gaps and an approval workflow: gap detected, offer to qualified guards, approve, then notify and confirm. The text says, “AI finds the gap and triggers your workflow. You approve and notify.”
  3. Attendance. A demonstration site's coverage changes from three of four posts to four of four. A GPS clock-in card marks an officer verified on site. The caption reads, “Know every post is covered, with proof.”
  4. Patrol. An officer follows a route around a building. Five checkpoint markers turn green as the round progresses. The caption reads, “Checkpoints confirmed as they happen.”
  5. Records. An example credential register shows validity and renewal states beside an audit-pack panel for shift logs, GPS clock-ins, patrol checkpoints, and licence records. The caption reads, “Guard credentials tracked. Audit-ready reports in one click.” The SIA licence examples illustrate a UK workflow; they are not a claim of certification or automatic regulatory compliance.
  6. Closing. The connected sites and ShiftsGo logo appear with the message, “Every post covered. Every hour accounted for.” The music fades out.

Inside ShiftsGo

Guard tour tracking

Patrol monitoring in real time

Live visibility into your officers’ recorded movements and checkpoint scans, whether you run mobile patrols, fixed posts, or both. Track, verify, and review your security operations from one place.

Confirm patrols were completed

Review recorded checkpoint activity against the patrol plan. Missed checkpoints are flagged so supervisors can follow up while the shift is still running.

Track guard patrols live

GPS and QR/NFC checkpoints help you see reported officer locations, completed scans, and patrol progress.

Enterprise

Dedicated environments for enterprise security teams

For organizations with stricter data, security, or operational requirements, Sentinel can be deployed in a dedicated custom environment. Discuss environment isolation, regional hosting, access controls, integrations, and implementation requirements with our team.

Dedicated environment

A custom-configured Sentinel deployment for your organization.

Implementation planning

Discuss sites, rosters, checkpoints, integrations, and reporting requirements.

Enterprise pricing

Discuss a commercial agreement for your coverage and deployment requirements.

Rollout and support

Discuss rollout, training, and ongoing support requirements with our team.

Coverage-based pricing

Pay for the coverage you run, not the size of your workforce.

ShiftsGo prices committed coverage: static posts, mobile patrols, and contract or program demand. Add officers, supervisors, dispatchers, and replacements without turning every roster change into a bigger software bill.

Unlimited guards

Roster growth and replacements do not create per-seat charges.

Posts + patrols

One model covers static security posts and mobile patrol visits together.

Proof included

Scheduling, GPS attendance, QR/NFC scans, incident reports, and Shift Replay.

Coverage-first

The bill changes with the coverage you run, rather than your roster size.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

Answers to the questions security teams ask before switching to ShiftsGo.

Does ShiftsGo work for in-house security departments as well as contractors?

Yes. Sentinel supports contract, in-house, and hybrid teams with schedules, attendance, patrol checkpoints, incident records, and shift replay. Teams can share relevant operational evidence with clients and internal stakeholders.

What is ShiftsGo?

ShiftsGo is the operating system for security operations — a proof-of-patrol platform where every guard, post, and patrol produces verifiable, time-stamped, GPS-stamped evidence teams can review and share with relevant stakeholders, and the coverage gaps, missed checkpoints, and incidents your supervisors need to act on tonight. It combines AI-assisted scheduling, GPS guard tracking, QR/NFC checkpoint patrols, real-time coverage alerts, a per-site log book, and incident reporting in one platform for contract, in-house, and hybrid security teams.

How does GPS guard tracking work in ShiftsGo?

Guards clock in from the ShiftsGo mobile app. Geofenced locations confirm the guard is on-site, and live GPS streams their movements during patrols so supervisors and clients can verify presence in real time.

Does ShiftsGo support QR code and NFC checkpoint scanning?

Yes. Guards scan QR codes or tap NFC tags at each checkpoint to prove patrols were completed. Every scan is time-stamped, GPS-stamped, and stored in the cloud for client-ready proof of service.

Can I replay a guard's shift in ShiftsGo?

Yes. Shift Replay lets supervisors review a recorded shift on an interactive map — GPS route, checkpoint scans, and events — with time-based playback controls to scrub to any moment. It turns disputes and incident investigations into a review of recorded evidence, and produces client-ready proof of service.

Can ShiftsGo detect a no-show shift?

Yes. ShiftsGo detects missed clock-ins and coverage gaps in real time and alerts supervisors immediately, so the shift can be recovered as soon as a gap is identified.

Is ShiftsGo suitable for security companies in the US and Canada?

Yes. ShiftsGo serves security operators across the United States (shiftsgo.com) and Canada (shiftsgo.ca) with regional billing, English-language support for both markets.

How much does ShiftsGo cost?

ShiftsGo Operations is $149 USD/month or $1,490 USD/year with two months free. The monthly allowance includes 48 static guard-hours per calendar day. Static coverage uses one Operations Credit per committed guard-hour and each completed patrol visit uses one credit. Additional credits are invoiced monthly using graduated rates starting at $0.10 USD for monthly contracts or $0.08 USD for annual contracts; usage above 100,000 credits requires an Enterprise review. Self-service checkout is available in Sentinel.

Can we import existing sites and guards into ShiftsGo?

Yes. During setup you can download CSV templates for sites and guards, populate them from your current records, and import them in bulk so your team does not rebuild roster or site data by hand.

Does ShiftsGo offer annual billing?

The ShiftsGo Operations annual platform price is $1,490 USD, equal to 10 monthly platform payments, so customers receive two months free. Additional coverage is still invoiced monthly using graduated annual-contract rates that start at $0.08 USD per Operations Credit and decrease at higher usage bands. Enterprise pricing is negotiated.
