Site monitoring

AI security monitoring for the whole site

For any business with something to protect, not just padel clubs. Software that recognises people and vehicles watches every camera on your site: car parks, shop floors, stock rooms, storage, yards and restricted areas, the bar and social spaces, and the courts if you have them. Your team hears about it only when something breaks your rules, and you see which parts of your club are busy and which sit quiet. New from Court Intel, and now taking enquiries for the first sites.

An illustration with example data: each area with what is happening now, and how players moved through the site this week.

What it does

Every area, its own rules

A stock room that should be empty after closing, a car park open until 23:00, a plant room only staff use: each zone gets its own hours and its own alert.

People and vehicles, not shadows

The software looks for people and vehicles, so swaying trees, rain and passing headlights are far less likely to set it off than a simple motion sensor.

Alerts on the team's phones

A photo and a short clip go straight to whoever is on duty, day or night, with the area and the time. Nobody has to sit watching a wall of screens.

Lower monitoring costs

Software watching every camera all the time costs far less than paying people to watch screens, so your team only looks when it matters.

Busy and quiet areas

How many people use each area, hour by hour, and how long they stay: the bar after evening matches, the quiet corners of the café, the car park at its peak.

The player journey

How players move through your club, from the car park to reception, the courts, the bar or the shop, and where they head home. Counted, never named.

Runs at your venue

Detection runs on a controller on site, not in the cloud, so it keeps watching through a broadband cut and any siren or warning light still works.

Watched around the clock

Every controller reports in to us. If a camera stops sending pictures or a controller goes offline, your team is told straight away, not the morning after.

Private by design

No face recognition and no names. Every area is signed, footage is kept only as long as you choose, and you decide who can see it.

Not just for sports venues

The same system works for any business with areas to protect. Each site gets its own areas, hours and alerts.

Shops and retail

The shop floor after closing, stock room and back doors, and how customers move between the entrance, the aisles and the till.

Warehouses and distribution

Loading bays, yards and high-value cages, with an alert for anyone on site outside shift times.

Self storage and yards

Perimeters, gates and unit corridors around the clock, and vehicles where none should be after hours.

Offices and business parks

Car parks, reception, server and plant rooms after hours, and which spaces are really used through the week.

Bars, restaurants and hotels

Cellars, back doors and stores, and which bars, terraces and lounges are busy or quiet hour by hour.

Gyms and leisure

Entrances, car parks and plant rooms during unstaffed hours. Never inside changing areas.

Car dealers and garages

Forecourts, display vehicles and workshop doors once the site has closed.

Construction sites

Compounds, plant and materials overnight and at weekends, when sites are most often targeted.

Farms and rural sites

Yards, barns and machinery stores, where a theft can go unnoticed until morning.

How it works

  1. SurveyWe walk the site with you: the areas that matter, the cameras you already have and where one more would close a gap.
  2. ConnectYour existing network cameras are linked to our controller, and any new ones are fitted by your installer or ours.
  3. Set the rulesWith your team we draw each area, set its hours and choose who hears about what, so alerts go to the right phone.
  4. RunAlerts as they happen, and a weekly picture of which areas are busy, which are quiet and how people move through the site.

Questions operators ask

Which areas can it monitor?

Anywhere a camera can see: car parks, entrances, the shop or retail space, stock rooms and storage, plant rooms and other restricted areas, the bar, café and social spaces, and the courts. It works at padel and sports clubs and at any other site with areas to protect.

Can it use our existing CCTV cameras?

Usually. Most network cameras and recorders can share their picture with our controller. We check each camera at the survey and tell you honestly where an extra one would help.

Does it replace our intruder alarm or monitoring centre?

It can sit alongside them and cut what you need from them. If your insurer requires a monitored alarm, keep it, and check with them before changing any contract. Court Intel adds what an alarm cannot: every camera watched in software, with the right person told at once.

How does it avoid false alarms?

It reacts to people and vehicles rather than to any movement, and each area only alerts in the hours you set, so the cleaner in the bar at 07:00 is expected and an open stock room at 02:00 is not.

Does it recognise faces or track named players?

No. It detects that a person or a vehicle is there, not who it is. The busy-area and journey reports show how many people use and move between areas, never who they are, and are never linked to a booking or a name.

What about data protection?

Camera footage of customers and staff is personal data. As the site operator you decide which areas are covered and how long footage is kept, and we supply the signs and the information you need for your data protection impact assessment. We process the footage on your behalf under a written data processing agreement, and help you explain to your team which staff areas are covered and why.

What does it cost?

Each site is quoted after a short survey: any cameras and fitting, plus a monthly service that includes the monitoring, the alerts, the reports and support. The price is fixed in writing before you commit. Prices exclude VAT.
