One flat rate per camera covers everything — the hardware, cellular, plate reading, monitoring, and support. You lease it the same way the big providers do, and pay a lot less every year.
It's all in the monthly rate. That's roughly half of what the big national providers typically charge, which runs $2,500 to $3,000 a year per camera.
| Per camera | Install | Year 1 | Year 3 | Year 5 | Year 10 |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| AEGIS Watch | $400 | $1,900 | $4,900 | $7,900 | $15,400 |
| National provider | $650 | $3,650 | $9,650 | $15,650 | $30,650 |
| You save | $250 | $1,750 | $4,750 | $7,750 | $15,250 |
Competitor figures are typical industry estimates for a comparable camera, roughly $650 to install and $2,500 to $3,000 per camera each year, and they vary by provider and by site. Your exact quote is set at the site visit.
You lease them, like you would from the big providers. The monthly rate covers the hardware, so there's no big purchase up front and nothing for you to maintain.
Only if you decide to. AEGIS is self-hosted, so your reads stay on hardware you control. We never feed them into a national network.
A standard install: mounting, aiming, wiring the solar and cellular, and getting the camera online. Unusual site work like a new foundation or a power run is quoted separately after we come out and look.
Usually one per entrance to start. We'll walk your property on the site visit and tell you straight, not sell you extras.
No surprise hikes. We'd rather keep you than nickel-and-dime you.
A short site visit confirms camera placement and your price. No obligation.
