The Process

How Alain360 Works

From Existing CCTV to Intelligent 24/7 Monitoring

Your CCTV cameras are already capturing what happens around your property. We add the intelligence needed to understand those camera feeds, identify important events, and alert your team when attention is required.

There is no need to start from scratch. Our engineers assess your existing cameras, configure AI according to your environment, securely connect compatible camera feeds, and activate continuous monitoring.

Your Cameras. Our AI. Continuous Protection.

Video Survey

1–2 days

We Start With Your Existing Cameras The first step is understanding your current CCTV environment. You send us short sample recordings from the cameras you want monitored. Our AI engineers review the footage to determine whether the camera positioning, image quality, lighting, field of view, and environment are suitable for reliable AI monitoring.

    How the Connection Works

    • Unauthorized Entry — Detect people entering designated areas.
    • Restricted Zones — Monitor areas where access should be limited.
    • After-Hours Activity — Detect people or vehicles when the site should be empty.
    • Loitering — Identify someone remaining in a defined area beyond an allowed period.
    • People & Vehicle Detection — Distinguish meaningful activity from ordinary background movement.
    • Zone Monitoring — Monitor specific areas instead of triggering alerts for everything visible in the camera.

    Built Around Your Existing Security System

    After the survey, our team will advise you which cameras are ready for AI monitoring and whether any adjustments are recommended. The objective is simple: make sure the AI sees the right things before monitoring begins.

    Environment Training

    1–5 days depending on site size

    AI Configured Around Your Environment Every site is different. A construction site, warehouse, factory, commercial building, residential property, and retail location all have different environments and security requirements. Once our engineers complete the initial assessment, we configure and tune the computer-vision system around your actual camera views.

    • AI model training on your live environment
    • End-to-end system test before handover

    How the Connection Works

    Unauthorized Entry — Detect people entering designated areas. Restricted Zones — Monitor areas where access should be limited. After-Hours Activity — Detect people or vehicles when the site should be empty. Loitering — Identify someone remaining in a defined area beyond an allowed period. People & Vehicle Detection — Distinguish meaningful activity from ordinary background movement. Zone Monitoring — Monitor specific areas instead of triggering alerts for everything visible in the camera.

    Built Around Your Existing Security System

    An important part of setup is teaching the system what not to react to. Our engineers configure exclusion areas and detection rules to reduce unnecessary alerts caused by normal environmental activity. The result is an AI monitoring system configured specifically for your cameras, your environment, and your requirements.

    AI Connection

    Ongoing — 24/7/365

    Securely Connect Your Cameras to Our AI Platform Once the environment configuration is ready, we connect your approved camera feeds to our AI monitoring infrastructure. Your existing CCTV system continues to operate normally. Your NVR can continue recording locally while the AI monitoring layer analyzes compatible camera feeds for configured events.

      How the Connection Works

      Existing CCTV Cameras → Secure Connection → AI Processing → Event Detection → Alert For supported deployments, we can work with existing IP cameras using common standards such as RTSP and ONVIF. This means businesses can add AI monitoring without necessarily replacing their complete CCTV infrastructure.

      Built Around Your Existing Security System

      We are not trying to replace your cameras. We make your existing cameras smarter.

      What You Need to Provide

      We Handle the Complexity — You Just Need These

      Alain360 manages the entire technical process. Here is the short list of things we need from you to get started.

      Site Access

      Access for our survey consultant and installation engineers at agreed times. We work around your operating hours.

      Floor Plans or Site Drawings

      If available, these speed up the design phase. If not, our surveyor will produce a site sketch during the visit.

      A Named Point of Contact

      One person on your team who can liaise with our engineers during installation and receive the system handover.

      The Technology

      How the AI Actually Works

      Alain360 uses a multi-layer deep learning pipeline — not simple motion detection — to understand what is happening in a scene and distinguish genuine threats from normal activity.

      Layer 1—Scene Understanding

      Our computer vision models build a real-time semantic map of each camera view — identifying people, vehicles, objects, and zones. The system learns what 'normal' looks like for your specific site.

      Layer 2—Behavioural Analysis

      A second model layer analyses movement patterns over time. Loitering, erratic movement, tailgating, and crowd surges are flagged based on learned behavioural baselines — not simple pixel changes.

      Layer 3—Threat Classification

      Detected anomalies are scored and classified by a threat model trained on millions of real security incidents. Only events above a confidence threshold trigger an alert, keeping false positive rates below 0.3%.

      Layer 4—Human Verification

      Every AI-generated alert is reviewed by a trained operator in our monitoring centre before any action is taken. The AI handles the volume; humans make the judgement calls.
