Pricing
Service Price
Live guard service (monthly fee)

$50/month per added camera

Pricing varies by deployment size; costs often exceed traditional monitoring due to bundled equipment leasing and logistics overhead.

Go-to-market

Reseller partners & lower cost = lower prices

Operates primarily on a lease model, making short-term or small-footprint customers less cost-efficient; designed for enterprise or large commercial sites.

PoE camera

• Hub: $1599
• 4K Turret Camera: $499
• 10 Port Switch: $250
• 20 Port Switch: $325

LVT’s systems are integrated towers rather than modular cameras, limiting flexibility for customers who want to mix and scale specific components.

Warranty

1 year warranty on all wireless and PoE hardware

Warranty covered under lease only; replacement timelines depend on service response, which may vary by region.

Contract required

1 year

Typically 3–5 year contracts; early termination can incur substantial penalties, reducing flexibility for evolving site needs.

Integrates with third party cameras

Deep Sentinel Yes

Deep Sentinel No — operates as a closed ecosystem; does not integrate with external or user-owned cameras.

Leasing options

Deep Sentinel Now Available

Deep Sentinel Yes — but leasing is mandatory; customers can’t buy outright, which increases long-term total cost.

Service - How Do They Prevent Crime?
Live monitoring by human guards

Deep Sentinel Yes

Deep Sentinel Yes — primarily reactive monitoring from remote command centers; engagement quality varies by staffing and shift load.

Response time SLA

Deep Sentinel Yes – AI engages within 5–7s, guards within 30–60s.

Deep Sentinel No published SLA — response time depends on regional operations and monitoring load, not guaranteed per event.

Proprietary AI

Deep Sentinel Yes – Developed in-house

Deep Sentinel Partial — uses third-party analytics and motion triggers; AI is mainly used for detection, not real-time intervention.

Two-way audio

Deep Sentinel Yes

Deep Sentinel Yes — but latency and one-way delays are common due to tower uplink dependencies.

Physical deterrence products

Deep Sentinel Yes – FlashBang, sirens, smoke

Deep Sentinel Yes — integrated strobes and sirens, though these are limited to tower setups and not individual cameras.

Hardware
Overview

Every Deep Sentinel package includes a smart AI Hub...

LVT hardware consists of large trailer or tower systems — ideal for temporary sites but impractical for fixed installations or small business footprints.

Wireless cameras

Deep Sentinel Yes

Deep Sentinel No — tower-based design relies on wired or self-contained units; not suitable for flexible or indoor use.

Thermal / Infrared

Deep Sentinel No

Deep Sentinel Yes — available on premium models but significantly increases system cost.

Frequently Asked Questions

Why do businesses switch from LVT 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 LVT.
Is Deep Sentinel a better alternative to LVT?
 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 LVT alternative.
Does LVT use AI technology like Deep Sentinel?
 No. LVT 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 LVT?
Yes. Deep Sentinel uses a transparent, fair use flat-rate pricing model at $50/month per camera. LVT’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. LVT does not provide a published service level agreement (SLA) for response times.
Can Deep Sentinel integrate with third-party cameras like LVT?
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.
