Command platform · Made in South Africa

Swiss
Guard.

One unified platform. Every sphere of security in a single integrated system.

Document control, risk, compliance, SOP-driven action, payroll and live operations — built into one product. No-one else has joined the dots like this.

PSIRA verified Live · 10s refresh PTT + WebChat Mobile-first
Why Swiss Guard

Most security companies run on five disconnected tools, two WhatsApp groups, and a clipboard.

Swiss Guard replaces all of it with a single integrated platform built specifically for the South African security industry.

Live truth, not yesterday's report

Every screen refreshes automatically — postings, book-ins, patrols, emergencies, device GPS. The control room sees what's happening as it happens, never two hours later.

PSIRA verification, locked in

Personnel records sync directly with PSIRA. Verified grades become system truth. Expired certificates trigger renewal alerts before they cost you a contract.

Mobile-first for the field

Guards book in with photo evidence and GPS. Occurrences, incidents, panic alerts, visitor management and PTT — all in one Android app. Offline-tolerant.

The purpose of Swiss Guard is to integrate every sphere of security into one system — document control, risk, compliance, SOP-driven action, payroll and planning — so officers work simpler, management sees clearer, and clients get reporting that actually means something. — The Swiss Guard promise
Live Operations Dashboard

One screen. Everything that matters.

Coverage. Attendance. Emergencies. Unread chats. Site activity. The Swiss Guard Command Centre is the single live view your control room operator needs to run a shift — refreshing every ten seconds, surfacing what needs action first.

Coverage

Required vs assigned guards for the next shift, before the gap becomes a problem.

Attendance

Who's actually on the floor right now — booked in with photo and GPS proof.

Emergencies

Open emergencies in the last 12 hours. Active count never lies.

Recently shipped

The control room got louder, clearer and faster.

Swiss Guard is in active development by the team that runs it. Three capabilities that landed recently, straight from the sites that asked for them.

Push-to-talk

Radio, without the radios

Hold-to-talk from the app to one site, a group or every site. Transmissions land as permanent voice notes; the dispatch console never alerts on the operator's own outbound calls.

Emergency alerting

You cannot miss a panic

Looping siren, one-shot chime and a spoken announcement in every control-room browser — siren ducks while the voice speaks, then resumes until acknowledged.

WebChat

Messages, voice notes and PTT history

Two-tab site rooms — messages and voice notes on one, PTT history on the other — plus broadcast-to-all-sites from a single modal, newest first, always.

Electronic occurrence book · formerly Swiss OB

An occurrence book that holds up at arbitration.

Paper OBs get lost, edited or written up at month-end. Electronic ones with no audit trail are worse. Guard's OB is built to be evidence — and it's the same app the officer already uses for book-ins, patrols and panic.

CapturePhoto · GPS · Time

Logged on the spot from the Android app, offline-tolerant, server-timestamped on sync.

IntegrityHash-locked

Entries are tamper-evident. Edits are new versions; the original never changes.

The whole operation, in one place

Organised the way security companies actually work.

From the moment you create a site, to the moment a guard books on duty, to the day the CCMA case is closed. Every module talks to every other module. No double capture. No island data.

⚠ The old way

Replace the chaos. Run the operation.

⚠ Before — The mess

How most security companies still operate

  • WhatsApp groups for shift bookings, lost in scrollback
  • Excel sheet of guards, manually updated, often out of date
  • Paper occurrence book at each site, photographed weekly
  • Phone trees and SMS for emergencies — slow, untracked
  • "Did Bongani sign that uniform out?" — nobody knows
  • HR case binder, missing documents at arbitration
  • Five different logins, five different reports, no joined picture

Questions we get asked

Straight answers.

Does Swiss Guard verify guards against PSIRA?

Yes. Personnel records sync with PSIRA so verified grades become system truth. Expired or lapsing registrations raise renewal alerts before they cost you a contract, and the Manpower Power Center shows deployment readiness by area and grade.

How does push-to-talk work on the app?

One button in the Swiss Guard Android app broadcasts live voice to a site, a custom group or every site. Each transmission is saved as a permanent voice note in the site's WebChat, and the control room dispatch console handles inbound calls without alert fatigue.

What happens when a guard presses panic?

The alert lands in the Emergency Control Center with site, GPS and the armed-response contact, plays a siren and spoken announcement in the control room, and dispatches SMS to the site's emergency contacts. Resolution time is tracked per incident.

Can it run my payroll?

Shift, book-in and leave data flow into Payroll Operations — advances, banking changes, queries and documents — with a full audit history and exports for your payroll system.

Is it usable in areas with poor signal?

The Android app is offline-tolerant: book-ins, occurrences, patrol scans and photos queue on the device and sync when signal returns, keeping their original timestamps and GPS.

Does Swiss Guard include an electronic occurrence book?

Yes — the former Swiss OB is now a Guard module. Officers log occurrences from the app with photo, GPS and server-side timestamp; entries are hash-locked, supervisor-approved where required, searchable across every site and exportable as an audit-ready PDF with chain-of-custody. Every view, export and edit attempt is logged.

How is Swiss Guard priced?

Per guard, per month, with the mobile app, control-room console and all modules included. We quote the real number on the demo call.
