Alarm Detection Systems (ADS), a 58-year leader in electronic security and life safety solutions, announced the launch of SEEKER, a next-generation, AI-powered remote video monitoring platform designed to make security smarter, faster and more responsive in real time.

SEEKER builds on the security systems many businesses already have in place, enhancing cameras and infrastructure with intelligent analytics and live, human-interaction monitoring. By combining AI technology with highly trained video analysts, the SEEKER platform detects, verifies and responds to potential threats before they escalate, helping stop incidents in real time.

“Security challenges today are no longer static, and businesses need solutions that can respond during an event, not after,” said Jason Tague, director of remote video monitoring, ADS. “SEEKER enables our customers to identify risks in real time and take immediate action, delivering a smarter and more effective approach to protecting people, property and operations.”

SEEKER proactively monitors environments as events unfold. AI-enabled cameras identify activity, intelligent software filters out non-threatening events, and trained professionals step in immediately when intervention is needed.

SEEKER also incorporates advanced, customized capabilities such as remote guard tours, video verification, event-based analytic response, which activates additional cameras across a property when a threat is identified, and voice-down technology that allows operators to directly address and deter intruders in real time. Each incident is documented with time-stamped video and reporting, providing both immediate visibility and long-term insight.

Designed to adapt to each client’s environment, SEEKER offers a fully customizable, rule-based standard operating procedure (SOP) framework that enables businesses to define virtual perimeters and set specific triggers tailored to their needs. The platform can distinguish between people, vehicles and non-threatening environmental and seasonal activity, reducing unnecessary alerts while ensuring critical risks are addressed.

As part of the SEEKER platform, ADS is also expanding its capabilities with the introduction of its fleet of mobile defense trailers, enabling rapid deployment of security in outdoor and temporary environments. These units provide continuous monitoring through integrated solar power and battery backup, delivering flexible protection without the need for permanent infrastructure.
