Surveillance Camera
Every moment your surveillance camera isn’t being actively monitored is a moment of opportunity for trouble. Traditional surveillance cameras might record incidents, but without real-time monitoring, they can’t stop a break-in or alert you when it matters most.
Imagine having a professional team watching over your property every minute, ready to respond the instant something happens. That’s exactly what AI Security Surveillance provides – a dedicated remote monitoring service that transforms your surveillance cameras into a proactive security solution for homes, businesses, and facilities.
Protect what matters most with an experienced California-based monitoring team on your side. Keep reading to discover how we can turn your surveillance camera setup into a live guardian for your property—and why so many Californians already trust us with their security.
5 Top Surveillance Camera Picks
Not sure which cameras work best with a monitoring service? While AI Security Surveillance focuses solely on monitoring, we have experience with all major brands. We’re happy to recommend reliable models to our clients.
Below are five of the best surveillance cameras currently available – covering residential, commercial, and industrial needs. Each of these picks offers excellent video quality and smart features that pair well with our monitoring service:
Arlo Pro Series (Wireless Outdoor Camera)
The Arlo Pro 4 offers wire-free installation and captures crisp 2K HDR video with a wide field of view and color night vision. It even includes a built-in spotlight and siren for deterrence.
With smart motion detection, it can distinguish people from animals or vehicles, reducing false alerts. Ideal for flexible placement around a house or storefront (no power outlets needed), this camera integrates with popular smart-home systems for easy remote access.
It’s a favorite for DIY security that can scale up – and with our team monitoring the feed 24/7, you’ll have instant human verification of any alert.
Google Nest Cam (Battery)
The Nest Cam is a weatherproof indoor/outdoor camera known for intelligent motion detection. It sends AI-powered alerts that differentiate between people, animals, and vehicles.
This camera records in high-definition 1080p HDR and has excellent night vision, ensuring clear video day or night. Because it’s battery-powered, installation is a breeze (mount it anywhere without wiring). Users love the encrypted cloud storage and the Google Home app integration.
We recommend Nest Cam for homeowners or small businesses who want smart features like familiar face detection (with a Nest Aware subscription) – and rest assured, our monitoring center can receive those alerts too and respond immediately.
Axis Communications Dome Camera (Commercial-Grade)
For example, the Axis P3245-LVE is a durable dome IP camera delivering HD 1080p video with advanced Wide Dynamic Range (WDR) and infrared night vision for clarity in challenging lighting.
Housed in an IK10 vandal-resistant casing, it’s built for 24/7 operation in offices, retail stores, or outdoor building perimeters. Axis cameras are known for their reliability and cybersecurity features (like signed firmware), making them trusted in banks and corporate campuses
We often recommend Axis for commercial clients who need crystal-clear images and integrations with NVR systems. These cameras’ consistent performance means our monitoring staff gets a sharp view of any incident, whether it’s a well-lit lobby or a dim parking garage.
Lorex 4K Ultra HD Security Camera System
Lorex offers turret and bullet cameras that record in 4K Ultra HD, providing incredibly detailed footage. Key features include Color Night Vision (full-color images in low light), weather-resistant housings for outdoor use, and smart motion detection that can distinguish people and vehicles.
Lorex systems typically support local video storage (DVR/NVR) with no mandatory monthly fees, making them cost-effective for small businesses or large homes with many cameras.
We recommend Lorex 4K cameras for clients who want forensic-level video detail – for instance, capturing license plates or faces clearly. With our team monitoring the feed, the moment these cameras pick up suspicious activity, we’ll see every detail and act on it.
FLIR Triton Thermal Security Camera
When it comes to securing expansive perimeters or critical infrastructure, thermal cameras like the FLIR Triton F-Series stand out. These cameras use heat signatures instead of visible light, so they see in total darkness and through challenging weather.
The Triton F-Series provides best-in-class thermal imaging detail and even has onboard AI analytics to classify human or vehicle intrusions. This makes it ideal for industrial sites, fenced-off outdoor yards, or remote facilities where intruders might try to sneak in at night.
While thermal cameras are more expensive and specialized, we might recommend them for high-security applications – and our monitoring service is experienced in interpreting thermal footage. If someone breaches your facility at 3 AM, even under the cover of darkness, a FLIR camera will catch their heat signature, and we will immediately alert you and law enforcement.
Professional Monitoring Services for Every Need
Installing cameras is only the first step – effective security comes from vigilant monitoring. AI Security Surveillance offers comprehensive remote monitoring services tailored to your needs.
24/7 Live Surveillance
Our trained security operators watch your camera feeds in real time, around the clock, or on whatever schedule you require. Unlike motion alerts that might catch you asleep or away, our team is always awake and alert. If it’s 3 AM on a holiday, we’re still there monitoring your property. This continuous watch means suspicious activity is caught the instant it happens, not hours later.
Immediate Incident Response
The moment our staff spots an intruder, vandalism, fire, or any emergency on your cameras, we spring into action. We verify the threat (to filter out false alarms) and follow a customized protocol – for example, triggering a loud alarm speaker, calling local police or fire departments, and notifying designated client contacts. Because we have live video, we can provide responding authorities with critical details in real time (suspect descriptions, locations, etc.), leading to faster and more effective responses. Our security professionals are trained to handle everything from break-ins to loiterers or unsafe situations, ensuring nothing is overlooked.
Proactive Security Measures
Unlike traditional alarm systems that only react after a sensor is tripped, live video monitoring is proactive. We often detect suspicious behavior (like someone casing a door or climbing a fence) and can intervene before a crime occurs, either by audio challenge (talk-down) or alerting on-site security. This proactive approach can stop incidents in their tracks – a trespasser seeing a camera and hearing “Security, leave the premises!” will often flee immediately. It’s a level of deterrence you simply don’t get with unmonitored cameras.
Customized Monitoring Plans
We work with you to develop a monitoring plan that fits your specific needs. You decide when you want monitoring (24/7, only after hours, only when you’re on vacation, etc.) and define what constitutes an “alert” for your site. Do you want to know about every motion after 10 PM? Should we ignore the cleaning crew? We’ll set up personalized alert criteria and response actions. Our team will follow the agreed protocol precisely – whether that’s calling you first, dispatching police immediately for certain triggers, or even using specialized response instructions for sensitive sites.
Real-Time Alerts & Reporting
When an incident happens, you won’t be kept in the dark. We provide instant notifications via phone, text, or email (whichever you prefer) if a security event occurs. After resolving an incident, we also send you a detailed report of what happened, including time-stamped snapshots or video clips from your cameras. This transparency keeps you informed about all important events on your property, even if we handled it without needing to wake you up. You’ll have an incident log to review and use for any insurance or investigative follow-up.
Tailored Monitoring for Every Environment: Residential, Commercial, Industrial
One size does not fit all when it comes to surveillance. A family home, a retail store, and a factory floor each have unique security concerns. AI Security Surveillance tailors its monitoring approach for every environment to ensure maximum protection with minimal intrusion on privacy.
Residential Monitoring
For private homes and apartment complexes, our focus is on protecting your loved ones and personal property while respecting privacy. We typically monitor exterior cameras (yards, driveways, doors) to catch prowlers or package thieves, and can also monitor interior cameras in common areas when the house is supposed to be empty. We understand the importance of privacy in homes – our team only observes and records what’s necessary for security. Whether you’re asleep upstairs or away on vacation, we keep an eye out for break-ins, suspicious knocking, or fire and smoke visible on cameras. If an alarm or motion sensor goes off at your residence, our staff will immediately check the camera feeds, verify if it’s an intruder or a false alarm, and take action (like alerting you and calling police). Homeowners in California often worry about porch pirates and nighttime burglars; with our 24/7 residential monitoring, you’ll get an instant heads-up and response if anything occurs at your front door, backyard, or garage.
Commercial Monitoring
Businesses have different needs – you might need us to watch for after-hours break-ins at a shop, customer safety during store hours, or employee-only areas in an office. We customize our monitoring for retail stores, offices, warehouses, and more. For example, in a retail setting, we can monitor for shoplifting or suspicious behavior on the sales floor and alert in-store management in real time. After closing, we switch to intrusion detection, watching doors, windows, and loading docks. For offices, we might focus on secured server rooms or lobbies after hours. Our service scales to multi-site businesses: if you run several storefronts or branch offices, we can monitor all feeds centrally. We also help ensure compliance – e.g. if your business has safety protocols or regulations (like OSHA requirements in a warehouse), our team can keep an eye on those areas and inform you of any violations or incidents. Essentially, we become a virtual security guard for your business, conducting virtual patrols and keeping detailed logs of any events.
Industrial Monitoring
Industrial facilities – such as factories, construction sites, power plants, or warehouses – benefit greatly from professional monitoring due to their size and complexity. We are experienced with large-scale camera systems covering expansive perimeters, production lines, and sensitive equipment. Our monitoring for industrial clients often includes perimeter breach detection (catching intruders cutting a fence or entering a restricted zone), oversight of critical process areas (to spot safety hazards, machine malfunctions, or even personnel not wearing required gear), and emergency monitoring (like detecting fires or leaks on camera). Industrial sites in California may also face environmental risks; for instance, during wildfire season, our team can keep watch on the horizon for smoke or embers near your facility, providing early warning. We handle camera arrays from a few units to hundreds, and can integrate with your existing security operations center if needed. By tailoring alarm criteria (e.g., flagging any human presence in a no-go zone after hours), we help prevent copper thefts, vandalism, and accidents. Our scalable monitoring solution grows with your facility – if you add more cameras across a plant, we seamlessly include them in our watch. The result is 24/7 coverage of sprawling sites that would be impossible to physically patrol at all times.
Whether it’s a single camera at a front door or 200 cameras across multiple acres, we deliver vigilant monitoring tailored to your environment’s challenges.

FAQ about Surveillance Camera
What do your remote monitoring services include?
Our remote monitoring includes live 24/7 or scheduled surveillance of your security cameras by trained professionals. We verify threats, trigger warnings, contact authorities if needed, and alert you. We also monitor system health and provide incident reports when necessary.
Will you work with my existing cameras or do I need to buy new ones?
Yes, we work with your existing surveillance cameras. Our system is compatible with most brands, including IP and smart home setups. We don’t sell equipment, and we focus solely on enhancing your current system through active monitoring.
What happens if your team sees an intruder or suspicious activity on my cameras?
When a threat is spotted, our team verifies it using multiple camera views, responds based on your pre-set protocol (e.g., audio warning, calling police), and alerts your emergency contacts. A full incident report is provided afterward detailing all actions taken.
Do you use artificial intelligence or just humans for monitoring?
We combine AI and human expertise. AI detects motion, people, and patterns, reducing false alarms. All alerts are reviewed by human operators who make final decisions. This hybrid approach ensures fast, accurate responses without relying on automation alone.
How do you protect my privacy and data?
We use encrypted connections, strict access controls, and secure storage. Our staff are bound by NDAs and privacy policies. We don’t record footage unless needed for reports, and we fully comply with California privacy laws, including guidance on camera placement.
How much does this service cost?
Pricing depends on camera count, coverage hours, and setup complexity. We offer tailored, flat-rate monthly plans—often more cost-effective than physical guards. Quotes are free, transparent, and flexible, with no hidden fees and potential insurance benefits for professional monitoring.
