Sirix Monitoring

What Sirix Monitoring does

Sirix Monitoring is a private Canadian security company that combines AI-powered video analytics with 24/7 human operators in a command center to deliver remote video surveillance, alarm verification, access control, and incident response services for businesses. Founded in 2007 and headquartered in Laval, Quebec, the company operates across North America with a redundant SOC in Saint-Laurent and regional offices in Toronto, Vancouver, and ten US cities, covering 230 cities in total with 15,000+ connected cameras.

The core technology stack is a cloud-based video analytics platform that integrates with 500+ security camera, VMS, NVR, and Cloud VMS manufacturer systems and runs 20+ in-house AI detection modules covering object detection/tracking, loitering, tailgating, gesture-based shoplifting detection (privacy-compliant, non-facial), license plate recognition across 7,500+ vehicle models, smoke/fire, gun, violence, slip-and-fall, crowd, crane climbing, mask compliance, and a Conditional AI rules engine. The 2026 product roadmap added the Autonomous Security Box (standalone perimeter hardware), AktivSense camera-health monitoring, and Conditional AI extensions. Services are delivered through a multi-tier GTM combining direct enterprise field sales, a channel partner program with security dealers and integrators (including named partners Inaxsys and GSD Group), a referral agent network, and technology integration partnerships with Genetec, Avigilon, Axis, Hanwha, Milestone, Bosch, and others.

Sirix monetizes almost entirely through recurring subscriptions for remote video monitoring, cloud video analytics, hosted and managed access control, voice interventions, alarm verification, and specialized monitoring (lone worker, elevator, high-value cargo, remote gate), with managed-service wraps such as Sirix Pro for premium support. Pricing is quote-based and not publicly disclosed. Target verticals span construction sites, automotive dealerships, cannabis operations, truck yards, shopping centers, scrap/recycling, parking lots, retail, autonomous gas stations, industrial/manufacturing, multi-family residential, commercial buildings, self-storage, municipalities, and jewelry stores. No revenue, funding rounds, or ownership disclosures are present in available materials.
