Restaurants
The back door, the register and the line, covered
Always Alert keeps an eye on the parts of a restaurant you can't see from the pass: who's at the back door after close, what happens at the register, when the delivery really showed up, and how long people wait at lunch.
Alerts
What you'll hear about, from the door to the drawer.
Each one opens on its clip. They're leads, not verdicts: you decide what happened.

Ask the cameras
Ask about your day in plain words.
Every number in the answer comes from your cameras and your POS, with the clips behind it.

Getting set up
What it takes.
Your cameras, your internet
Any camera with a standard RTSP stream works over the restaurant's broadband. A $30 bridge near the router sends us each camera's low-res stream.
Full recording stays put
Your cameras keep recording at full resolution to their cards or your recorder. We keep 7 days of the low-res stream so you can scrub back.
Square for the register
Connect Square for drawer, void and refund alerts, and for conversion. Everything else works without a POS.
