Pricing
Service Price
Live guard service (monthly fee)
$50/month per added camera
Varies widely—pricing is controlled by third-party monitoring centers, which can result in inconsistent and often higher costs for end users.
Go-to-market
Reseller partners & lower cost = lower prices
Dependent on integrator and monitoring partners; lack of a unified model means pricing transparency and value consistency can be limited.
Hardware Prices
PoE camera
• Hub: $1599
• 4K Turret Camera: $499
• 10 Port Switch: $250
• 20 Port Switch: $325
Hardware options depend entirely on third-party vendors, offering flexibility but creating potential compatibility and support challenges.
Warranty
1 year warranty on all wireless and PoE hardware
Standard manufacturer warranty only—CHeKT itself does not cover third-party camera failures, which can complicate service claims.
Contract required
1 year
Varies by partner—typically 1-year minimum, though terms differ depending on the monitoring center or installer.
Integrates with third party cameras
Yes
Yes — but full functionality relies heavily on camera compatibility and integrator setup.
Leasing options
Available Now
Yes — available through select partners, though program details and terms are inconsistent.
Service - How Do They Prevent Crime?
Live monitoring by human guards
Yes
Yes — typically managed by external monitoring stations rather than in-house staff, leading to variable engagement quality.
Response time SLA
Yes – AI engages within 5–7s, guards within 30–60s.
No formal SLA — response depends on monitoring partner’s staffing and load, making reaction times unpredictable.
Proprietary AI
Yes – Developed in-house
No — relies on camera motion detection or NVR analytics; lacks optimization and advanced filtering against false alerts.
Two-way audio
Yes
Yes — added recently but limited by hardware compatibility and latency.
Physical deterrence products
Yes – FlashBang, sirens, smoke
No — relies solely on audio warnings or police dispatch; lacks any on-site deterrent mechanisms.
Hardware
Overview
Every Deep Sentinel package includes a smart AI Hub...
Does not produce its own cameras — depends on OEM hardware. The overall system experience varies based on which brand the customer or installer selects.
Wireless cameras
Yes
No — most CHeKT-supported cameras require wired PoE connections, limiting placement flexibility.
Thermal / Infrared

Frequently Asked Questions
Why do businesses switch from CHeKT to Deep Sentinel?
Businesses choose Deep Sentinel for its real-time security prevention, affordable pricing, and advanced AI technology. With faster police engagement, lower false alarms, and stronger deterrence features, Deep Sentinel delivers a more effective security solution than CHeKT.
Is Deep Sentinel a better alternative to CHeKT?
Yes. Deep Sentinel offers video surveillance solutions with AI-powered cameras, faster response times, flat-rate pricing, and advanced deterrent tech like two-way audio and sirens. It’s built to prevent crime before it happens, making it a leading CHeKT alternative.
Does CHeKT use AI technology like Deep Sentinel?
No. CHeKT relies on human guards manually reviewing video footage. Deep Sentinel uses proprietary AI to detect threats within seconds, allowing guards to focus only on real risks for faster, smarter intervention.
Is Deep Sentinel more affordable than CHeKT?
Yes. Deep Sentinel uses a transparent, fair use flat-rate pricing model at $50/month per camera. CHeKT’s pricing is variable, often higher, and based on incident volume or activity level, making it harder to predict monthly costs.
Which video surveillance provider offers the fastest response time?
Deep Sentinel guarantees guard engagement within 30 seconds of a verified threat, thanks to real-time AI analysis. CHeKT does not provide a published service level agreement (SLA) for response times.
Can Deep Sentinel integrate with third-party cameras like CHeKT?
Yes. Deep Sentinel supports integration with select third-party cameras, giving businesses the flexibility to use existing hardware while upgrading to AI-powered monitoring and live guard intervention.
How do Deep Sentinel guards prevent crime on my property?
Once our AI-technology detects a potential threat, your camera’s feed is instantly streamed to our live guards. Deep Sentinel guards can then immediately intervene through your camera’s microphone, set-off a 104dB alarm, and contact law enforcement in seconds. Learn more about how the system works here.
How do the guards know if a criminal is on my property?
LiveSentinel guards are highly trained to recognize and respond to key behavioral patterns across commercial environments. When activity appears normal—such as employees arriving for shifts, deliveries being made, or routine maintenance—our guards continue to monitor discreetly until the area is confirmed secure. If any behavior seems out of place, guards will make contact through the on-site speaker in a calm, professional manner to verify the individual’s purpose. Should suspicious or criminal actions occur, our team acts immediately—issuing a live audio warning, activating on-site alarms, and coordinating directly with local law enforcement as needed. LiveSentinel ensures your business stays protected, day and night, without disruption to daily operations.
