Becklar

What Becklar does

Becklar is a privately held connected-safety IoT platform headquartered in Ogden, Utah, operating nine monitoring centers across the United States and Canada that collectively protect nearly 2 million subscribers. The company delivers an integrated suite spanning three pillars: enterprise wholesale monitoring (AvantGuard, Armstrongs, Eyeforce), personal health and safety mobile PERS devices and apps (Freeus / Belle X, Belle X2, Belle Series S), and workforce safety solutions (WorkerSafety Pro, Digital PPE, Safety Dashboard, Series X). Underlying these is the patented AI Engage Platform, which applies machine learning to determine the intent of incoming alarm signals and focus operator attention on genuine emergencies. The portfolio extends into proactive Video Remote Guarding with AI analytics and worker safety via satellite integration (T-Satellite, Bivy) and Apple Watch compatibility, with SOC 2 Type 1 compliance certified across the full product suite.

Becklar serves security dealers and integrators as its primary channel, providing wholesale monitoring, account migration support, and dealer toolkits, while also selling directly to enterprise employers with lone, at-height, and hazardous-environment workers across energy, utilities, manufacturing, construction, telecommunications, healthcare, and humanitarian sectors. Customers include a Fortune 100 energy company, Williams Natural Gas, Georgia Transmission, Sunnova, Atlas Copco, a global auto manufacturer, and non-profits such as HOPICS and People in Need, with telco partnerships (including Telus in Canada) extending reach to subscriber bases.

Revenue is generated through a mix of subscription recurring monitoring fees, hardware sales of mPERS and workforce safety devices, professional monitoring services for lone workers, recurring monthly revenue from video remote guarding, and licensing of the AI Engage platform. Go-to-market is executed through a wholesale channel partner model supplemented by enterprise field sales and ecosystem integrations with platforms such as Epic (as the first Epic Toolbox-designated staff duress solution), Brivo, EVS, Bivy, Resideo, Ajax Systems, and Camect. The company is led by CEO Steve Richards, is backed by private equity investor Graham Partners, and has grown through a sustained M&A program including FallSafety (2021), Eyeforce (2024), Dynamark Monitoring (2025), and Legacy Security Services (2026).
