Virtual Patrol Technologies
Virtual Patrol Technologies provides a Safety Intelligence software layer that runs on cameras correctional facilities already own, flagging behaviors that can precede crises for trained staff to review. The system enables earlier awareness, faster response, and creates a timestamped record of every alert and response, supporting staff, leadership, and legal review.

Problem
In correctional facilities, the most dangerous events unfold in minutes, and staff often miss them because they cannot watch every camera feed at every moment. This gap between when something happens and when staff become aware of it can turn a suicide attempt into a death, a medical episode into an emergency, and an assault into a lawsuit. Suicide is the leading cause of death in U.S. local correctional facilities, and 1 in 5 incarcerated people experience physical violence over a six-month period.
Solution
Virtual Patrol Technologies provides a Safety Intelligence operating layer that runs on cameras a facility already owns, turning passive footage into active risk monitoring. The system continuously watches every camera for behaviors that precede a crisis—distress, fights, falls, contraband, self-harm—and flags them the moment they start. It routes alerts to the right staff, enabling earlier awareness and faster response before events become emergencies. Every alert and response is timestamped and recorded, creating a reviewable record that supports staff, leadership, and legal review. The company emphasizes a proof-first approach, putting the system on a facility's cameras and documenting results rather than making promises. It is designed specifically for corrections environments and built to extend into healthcare and public safety.
Target Audience
Primary customers are county correctional facilities and sheriffs' departments, particularly in Kentucky, that face high risk with limited resources and need earlier awareness and faster response to incidents.
Features
- Continuous AI-powered monitoring of existing camera feeds for risk behaviors including distress, fights, falls, contraband, and self-harm
