Webeye

What Webeye does

Webeye Limited is a UK-headquartered, privately-held security technology company founded in 2011, operating from Mansfield, Nottinghamshire, with regional offices in the United States (St. Cloud), South Africa (Centurion), Germany, and Scandinavia. The company builds and distributes cloud-based video and alarm monitoring solutions for the professional security industry, serving Alarm Receiving Centers (ARCs), guarding companies, security installers and integrators, and end customers with vulnerable or remote sites such as construction projects. Its core product, webeyeCMS, is an intelligent Video Surveillance as a Service (VSaaS) cloud-hosted platform that automates alarm receipt, video verification, and distribution of alarm traffic to stakeholders with a robust audit trail, certified under BS 50518:2013.

Webeye's product ecosystem combines proprietary manufactured hardware (notably Vigileyez, a 4G battery-operated rapid-deployment visual verification panel designed and manufactured in Europe), connectivity services (webeyeM2M managed IoT SIM cards with multi-network roaming across the UK, Europe and the USA priced from £2.99 per month), and mobile applications (webeyeSOS lone-worker safety app certified to BS 8484:2018; IN HOME consumer self-monitoring app). Around this proprietary core, Webeye acts as a wholesale distributor and integration partner for major third-party security vendors including Ajax Systems (the company's UK authorized distribution partner since February 2023), Hikvision, Dahua, Videofied, Avigilon, EZVIZ, GJD, Loxal, and Teltonika, generating multi-vendor stickiness for the webeyeCMS platform.

The business model combines subscription-based software revenue (webeyeCMS platform subscriptions for ARCs and guarding companies), usage-based recurring revenue (managed M2M/IoT SIM cards), one-time hardware sales across the catalogue, and professional services and technical support. Go-to-market is hybrid: self-serve e-commerce via the online catalogue for SMB and individual buyers, direct regional sales teams for enterprise accounts, and channel partners (ARCs and central stations) that resell the platform to end customers. The company has accumulated recognitions including the 2025 Benchmark Innovation Award, the 2018 Security and Fire Excellence Award, and inclusion in the Global 100 and Parliamentary Review, though it has no disclosed external institutional funding and operates from retained earnings.
