We Build the Eyes That
Never Sleep
Ghosthome is a South African security technology company that deploys AI-powered camera networks and proprietary software to protect communities, farms, estates, and businesses. We don't just record crime. We prevent it.
Born From a Broken System
Alarms are loud. But they're blind.
South Africa's security industry has long relied on the same formula: an alarm goes off, a call centre phones you, and armed response drives out — often to a false alarm, and almost always arriving after the fact.
Ghosthome was founded on a simple conviction: security should see, not just hear. We set out to build a system where cameras don't just record — they think, detect, and act in real time.
We started on residential streets — deploying AI cameras at every critical corner to create virtually closed neighbourhoods. Then we built the software to power it all: AI video analytics, Guard Cloud and Guard Box, alert management, vehicle tracking, and GIS mapping.
Today, Ghosthome is a full security technology platform — from the pole on your street to the AI in your control room.
Alarms go off. Nobody knows what's happening. Armed response arrives blind. Criminals are already gone.
What if cameras could see threats, verify them instantly, and tell armed response exactly what they're dealing with — before they arrive?
AI-powered camera networks that detect, classify, and alert in real time. Software that turns raw video into verified intelligence.
Communities like Charlie Zone with 90% less crime. Control rooms that see what matters. Armed response that arrives informed, not blind.
A world where communities are protected by intelligent, interconnected security ecosystems.
We envision a future where every street, every farm boundary, every estate gate, and every business entrance is watched by AI that understands what it sees — where crime is prevented before it happens, not just recorded after.
Deploy cutting-edge AI that transforms raw video into verified threat intelligence.
We build and deploy AI camera networks, professional-grade video management systems, and proprietary intelligence software that gives security companies and communities the tools to see, understand, and act on threats — instantly.
Three Layers of Security Intelligence
From the camera on the pole to the AI in the control room — every layer is built to work together.
AI Camera Networks
Professional-grade cameras deployed at strategic locations across streets, perimeters, gates, and entry points. Every camera runs advanced AI analytics.
- Person detection tuned for street and home cameras
- Vehicle classification and tracking
- Virtual tripwires and zones
- Thermal + visible fusion for 24/7 coverage
- Spotlights, sirens, and active deterrence
Professional VMS
Enterprise-grade video management built for security professionals. Not just recording — intelligent video management with forensic-grade search.
- Search a year of footage in under 1 second
- Forensic search by clothing, vehicle, direction
- One-click incident bookmarks and exports
- Live + archive simultaneous viewing
- Complete audit trails for every view and export
Ghosthome Software
Six Ghosthome products — AI analytics, the Guard range and control-room tools — built in Pretoria to work together.
Fully integrated platform: Cameras feed AI analytics. Analytics trigger alerts. Alerts reach control rooms with full context. Software handles the response chain. Every component built to work together.
Measurable Crime Reduction
This isn't theory. These are real results from real deployments.

The Challenge
Before the camera network went live, Charlie Zone in Moreleta Park faced a serious crime problem, according to SAPS data and community reports.
The Ghosthome Deployment
We deployed a coordinated AI camera network covering key entry points, routes, and intersections. Cameras with real-time analytics feed verified alerts to armed response partners.
The Impact
90% crime reduction — Charlie Zone crime dropped to virtually zero
Faster response and clear event trails for armed response teams
Strong deterrent effect through visible camera network presence
Continuous improvement — developing targeted ANPR to close remaining gaps
Charlie Zone proves that a coordinated, AI-driven camera network delivers measurable crime reduction.
One Platform, Multiple Markets
The same world-class AI and software powering different security environments — each tailored to its unique challenges.
Every market shares the same technology backbone — world-class AI analytics, professional VMS, and the Ghosthome Intelligence Stack.
Built on Conviction
Innovation First
We don't adapt old solutions. We build new ones. From AI call handling to real-time street intelligence, every product starts from first principles.
Community Driven
We work with HOAs, security companies, and residents together. Real security is a shared responsibility — our tools make collaboration seamless.
Privacy by Design
POPIA-compliant from day one. Privacy masks, scoped access, logged activities, controlled exports. We protect people's safety and their privacy.
Proactive, Not Reactive
Traditional security waits for alarms. We detect threats before they become incidents. Prevention beats response, every time.
Technology That Evolves
When new crime patterns emerge, we adapt. New camera positions, new AI models, new software features. The system gets smarter with every deployment.
Armed Response, Empowered
We don't replace security companies — we supercharge them. Better intelligence means faster response, fewer false alarms, and more client retention.
Why Ghosthome Is Different
Alarms go off. Nobody sees anything.
AI cameras detect, classify, and show exactly what's happening — before armed response arrives.
Security companies own the cameras.
We separate camera infrastructure from armed response — delivering superior uptime, faster AI updates, and compatibility with any company.
False alarms waste everyone's time.
AI filters out wind, pets and shadows, so operators see the people and vehicles worth checking.
Recordings reviewed after crimes happen.
Real-time detection and instant alerts. Prevention, not just documentation.
Siloed systems that don't talk to each other.
Fully integrated platform — cameras, VMS, AI analytics, and six Ghosthome products working as one.
One-size-fits-all camera installs.
Tailored deployments for streets, farms, estates, and commercial — each optimised for its environment.
Ready to join the security revolution?
Whether you're a community looking for street cameras, a security company ready to upgrade your intelligence, or a business that needs real protection — we're ready to build it.
