Deep Sentinel

1249 Quarry Lane, Pleasanton, CA, 94566, United States

Overview

Deep Sentinel offers a proactive security platform that pairs proprietary AI video monitoring with live remote guards to detect and intervene on suspicious activity in real time. The company’s Bring Your Own Camera (BYOC) integration program, which supports third-party brands, now accounts for nearly half of all sales. Deep Sentinel says it has doubled sales bookings year over year, outpacing traditional players in an industry that typically grows 20–30% annually. The platform is trusted by hundreds of security integrators and thousands of businesses across the U.S. and claims to prevent thousands of crimes each month. Planned uses of the new capital include scaling the BYOC program, continued development of its AI models, and expanding its national commercial and residential footprint. Deep Sentinel offers a security technology platform that delivers the experience of a personal guard for homes and businesses through 24/7 live video monitoring by remote guards aided by proprietary AI. The company’s smart home security systems combine high-definition cameras, AI and human intervention to identify potential threats in real-time. Trained security guards review and respond to alerts from cameras positioned around a customer’s perimeter, communicate directly with owners and law enforcement, and aim to stop crime before an intruder enters the property. Led by CEO Dave Selinger, Deep Sentinel provides immediate human review of AI-flagged events to accelerate response. The company intends to use the new capital to accelerate its AI-powered virtual guard security offering. Deep Sentinel is developing cameras and a software system that use deep learning to evaluate and deter threats at the perimeter of a property. The company’s hardware is still in development and will be pre-trained before delivery; devices are designed to work together so analysis is focused only where threats are occurring or likely to occur. Deep Sentinel emphasizes local processing to reduce cloud compute needs, lower costs for consumers, and limit the amount of private data sent to the cloud. The system is intended to respond to threats with deterrents such as warnings or lights; the company considered drones but found the technology too nascent. Founder David Selinger positions the product as differentiated by user experience in a crowded market of intelligent cameras. The startup raised institutional capital to fund product development and market entry next year.
