Places of Worship

Help protect your congregation, staff, and property.

Churches, synagogues, mosques, and temples welcome people in. VideoSafes gives staff and volunteers a simple way to see entrances, parking, and the building, during services and when it's empty.

Industry overview

Protect your congregation and your building

Places of worship are open by design, and the people keeping them safe are often staff and volunteers. VideoSafes gives them one simple app to check entrances, parking, and the building from anywhere.

Smart alerts cover the quiet days between services, and saved video is there if something needs to be reviewed or shared with police or insurers.

Problems we solve

Open doors and a small team.

Welcoming by design

Entrances are open to the public during services and events, and the team watching them is often small or volunteer.

Quiet buildings between services

Buildings can sit empty for days, which leaves property, equipment, and valuables exposed.

Shared responsibility

Clergy, staff, facilities, and safety volunteers all need some access, without handing out one shared password.

Use cases

Made for congregations and their facilities.

How it works

From the cameras you have to one app for your team.

  1. Step 1

    Tell us about your sites

    Share your locations, the cameras or recorders you have, and who on your team needs access.

  2. Step 2

    Connect the cameras you have

    We bring existing cameras into VideoSafes. New hardware only where a camera or link really needs it.

  3. Step 3

    Set alerts, saved video, and access

    Choose who gets smart alerts, how long video is kept at each site, and which cameras each person can see.

  4. Step 4

    Watch, review, and share from anywhere

    Use one app on desktop or phone for live view, playback, and sharing clips across every location.

  • Cloud video access for every site
  • Smart alerts
  • Saved video up to a year
  • Works with existing cameras
  • Multi-location coverage
