What LiveView Technologies does

LiveView Technologies (LVT), founded in 2004 and headquartered in American Fork, Utah, develops AI-powered mobile and fixed surveillance units combined with a cloud-based security management platform. Its core product is a rapidly deployable, solar-powered cellular security trailer equipped with edge-based computer vision, audio deterrence, dynamic lighting, and AI-driven behavior detection, augmented by newer offerings including building-mounted Live Unit Surround units, the GuardGate access control barrier, Command Center software, License Plate Recognition, and a public API. As of 2025 the company had deployed over 15,000 units and serves 94% of Fortune 100 retailers alongside customers in commercial real estate, energy, logistics, hospitality, critical infrastructure, and public sector/law enforcement.

LVT monetizes through hardware sales of security units, recurring software/SaaS subscriptions via Command Center, and professional services for enterprise deployments under multi-year contracts. Go-to-market is enterprise field sales with a 'Request a Demo' motion, supplemented by channel partnerships (Axon Fusus, Insight LPR, Immix), major industry events including ISC West and GSX, and an annual Safety and Security Summit (S3/ELEVATE). The 2025-2026 LVT 2.0 initiative added a President from Qualtrics, a CPO from Cisco Meraki, and additional C-suite hires to support product expansion into agentic AI, fixed-site perimeter coverage, and access control.

From 2021 to 2024 LVT achieved 483% revenue growth and surpassed a $1 billion valuation, supported by a $50 million Series B led by Sorenson Capital in June 2022. The company employs 501-1,000 people across its American Fork headquarters and Spanish Fork manufacturing facility. Notable customers include Marathon Petroleum, Prologis, Michaels, Caesars Entertainment, Enel, Arcadia Police Department, and the City of Camden. Forward indicators include the Financial Times Fastest Growing Companies ranking (#184) and #1 placement in Frost & Sullivan's 2025 Frost Radar for Mobile Surveillance, tempered by regulatory friction such as Austin's contract delay over AI and data governance provisions.
