GuardianAI was founded in 2024 with a clear purpose: to revolutionize security across South Africa by making intelligent, AI-powered surveillance accessible to every property owner.
We recognized that traditional security systems were failing South Africans—expensive hardware-based AI solutions were out of reach for most, while conventional alarm systems generated endless false alarms that eroded trust and wasted resources.
Our founders saw an opportunity to bridge this gap. By leveraging cloud-based artificial intelligence and working with existing CCTV infrastructure, we could deliver cutting-edge security intelligence at a fraction of traditional costs. No more R50,000+ hardware investments. No more replacing entire camera systems. Just intelligent enhancement of what you already have.
What started as a solution for a single farming community has grown into a comprehensive security platform protecting farms, businesses, and critical infrastructure across South Africa. Our technology has prevented countless thefts, secured isolated rural properties, and given communities the confidence to invest in their futures.
Today, GuardianAI stands at the forefront of AI-powered security innovation in South Africa. We're not just a technology company—we're partners in protecting what matters most to South Africans: their families, their livelihoods, and their communities.
