Smart home security

Turn smart alerts into rapid, verified response

Differentiate your platform with smart home security monitoring that goes beyond alerts. Embed AURA’s nationwide, on-demand, rapid security response network into your platform and transform smart alerts into verified on-site intervention.
Without action, your smart alarm is just noise

Home security systems are no longer judged on detection alone. Customers expect real-world intervention, and alerts they can’t act on quickly lose value. Without a response layer, security products compete on price, margins tighten, and self-monitoring fatigue leads to churn. 

01
The response gap
Police attendance to unverified alarms is extremely limited. Without a private security alarm response layer, your product cannot deliver real-world protection.
02
Brand exposure
If a customer experiences loss despite having your system installed, customers question the value of the technology and your brand reputation can suffers.
02
Missed recurring revenue
The market is shifting from one-off hardware sales to Security-as-a-Service. Remaining a hardware-only provider restricts long-term growth.

How it works

From smart alert to physical response

01
Alert triggered
Sensors, cameras, or AI detection identify suspicious activity and immediately send an alert.
02
Request response
You receive a push notification and can request a security response instantly.
03
Responder dispatched
AURA identifies the closest available security responder and dispatches them to the site.
04
Site verified
The responder assesses the situation, documents the incident, and can escalate verified criminal activity to the police.

"Our operators have found the dispatch portal to be a remarkable operational improvement for the sector. In our experience, AURA is undoubtedly the best guard response service available."

How does AURA integrate with our hardware or app?

AURA offers an API-first integration model that allows you to embed our technology into your platform. Alerts can trigger a response within your ecosystem, keeping the customer experience fully branded and seamless.

Do we need to change our hardware to work with AURA?

AURA works alongside your existing home security systems or IoT infrastructure. Our team supports integration at the software layer.

Who are the responding officers?

All responders within the AURA network are SIA-licensed and vetted. We work with accredited response network partners across the UK to ensure consistent professional standards.

Yes. AURA supports homes, retail, warehouses, construction sites, vacant properties, and mixed-use environments — allowing you to scale service tiers across customer segments.

How does AURA handle police escalation?

Our response partners attend first to verify the situation. If a genuine crime is confirmed, police are contacted with verified information — aligning with current police response policies.

What happens after an incident?

Customers receive updates during the response and a digital incident report afterward. Reports include responder notes, timestamps, and supporting evidence such as photos when available.

How does this help us generate recurring revenue?

By adding professional security response to your offering, you can introduce subscription-based protection plans. Response-backed services increase perceived value, reduce churn, and strengthen customer loyalty.
