A key to the whole operation.
Waekey runs the day-to-day of a security company. Guards on patrol, controllers in the control room, and the clients who want proof the site was covered — each on a screen built for the job they actually do.
Waekey Control — Live OpsGuard AppON DUTYThe industry runs on paper,
WhatsApp and spreadsheets.
The firms that did buy software bought something built for North American campuses and priced for enterprises. UK SME security companies got left with the clipboard.
guards is the size of firm nobody builds for. Too big for paper, too small for the enterprise platforms.
what a UK SME should pay. The incumbent prices per-guard for features a 40-officer firm will never open.
dashboard, for everyone. Guards, controllers, managers and clients all squeezed into the same screen. That is the design flaw.
Nobody should learn
somebody else’s screen.
A guard on a gate does not need a revenue chart. A finance manager does not need a patrol map. Waekey gives every role its own portal, on the same data, with the same audit trail underneath.
Three portals are live today. The rest are on the roadmap and ship in order — we would rather run one shift properly than demo ten screens badly.
Three screens. One night shift.
Follow a single alarm from the guard’s phone, through the control room, to the client’s inbox. Same event, three views, no re-keying.
The parts you only
notice at 3am.
Every edit is recorded. Every shift is provable. Nothing important depends on someone remembering to write it down.
Realtime across every portal
A guard scans a tag on a rear gate and the controller sees it before they have put the phone back in their pocket. Postgres replication, not polling.
Every edit leaves a record
Controllers can change a rota or a timesheet — but the change asks for a reason, shows what it is about to overwrite, and writes who did it and when. Nothing is edited quietly.
A rota that cannot double-book
Overlapping shifts are rejected by the database, not by a warning someone can click past. Unfilled posts sort to the top.
Lone worker, watched
Check-ins on a timer, late ones raised on their own, panic straight to the top of the board. Built around BS 8484.
Numbers judged against a promise
Your SLA targets live in the system, so “98%” is measured against what you actually signed — not a figure hard-coded by us.
Your name on it, not ours
White-labelled per firm: your logo, your colours, your subdomain. Your client logs in to your portal and never reads the word Waekey.
One firm cannot see another
Tenant separation is enforced in the database on every table, not by a filter in the front-end that a bug could drop. Client logins see only their own sites.
Live on one site
before you commit to all of them.
Load your sites
Sites, clients, officers and SIA licence dates. We import from whatever you have now — including the spreadsheet.
Run one shift
Pick a single site and one night. Guards use the app, a controller works the board. Nothing else changes until it works.
Roll it out
Add sites at your own pace. Your branding goes on, your clients get their logins, the old paperwork stops.
Built for UK security,
not adapted for it.
The standards your auditor asks about were in the schema before the first screen was drawn.
Lone worker
Timed check-ins, escalation when one is missed, panic handling and a recorded response — the shape the standard expects.
Static guarding & mobile patrol
Assignment instructions, patrol records and visit evidence held against the site, not in a folder.
Screening & vetting
Vetting records and their expiry dates sit on the officer’s profile, flagged before they lapse rather than after.
Keyholding & response
Keyholding jobs, alarm response and the who-attended-when trail, timestamped from the phone that was there.
Licence tracking
Licence number, sector and expiry per officer, with the roster warning you before you post someone whose badge runs out mid-shift.
Alarm signalling
Alarm records carry the fields a signalling chain needs, ready for integration as we connect receivers.
Priced for a UK SME,
not a global estate.
Per officer, per month. No per-module upsell, no charge for giving your clients a login, no five-figure implementation fee.
