Foreman / Coimbatore
Try ForemanA Coimbatore foundry lives with sparks. We watch for the fire in the wrong place.
Pump and motor manufacturers, foundries pouring metal in heat and dust, machine shops, wet-grinder makers and the spinning mills that earned Coimbatore the name Manchester of South India all share one problem: nobody is watching the cameras. We watch every camera continuously and send a Telegram alert with a photo, the camera and the time when something needs you. Free 7-day trial on up to 32 cameras, no card.
01
Built for Coimbatore's engineering and textile units
Coimbatore runs on engineering and textiles: pumpset and motor units shipping across India, a foundry cluster casting for the country's machine builders, job-working machine shops, wet-grinder and appliance makers, and spinning mills that have run for generations. Most of it is owner-run, margin-tight and dependent on machines that must not stop.
Every one of these units has cameras. Almost none are watched. Thefts, fires and stoppages are found the next morning on the recording, after the loss. We watch the same cameras as things happen and tell you in time to act.
- No new hardware: works with the DVR and cameras you already own
- Every camera watched continuously, across every shift
- Telegram alerts with a photo, the camera and the time
- Works through foundry dust, mill lint and low light
02
Fire watch for foundries, mills and stores
A foundry floor lives with sparks and heat by design, which makes a fire in the wrong place easy to miss until it is big: in stores, in electrical panels, in the cotton and packing material of a mill godown.
We watch your cameras for the first visible smoke and flame in the areas you mark, and send you a photo while it is still one corner of one store.
- Early visual smoke and flame detection from the cameras you have
- Stores, panels and mill godowns watched day and night
03
Night theft and idle machines
Castings, copper winding wire, motors and finished pumps are exactly the kind of stock that walks out of unwatched units at night. We know when your premises should be empty and tell you about any person or vehicle near your stores, scrap yard or gate when no one should be there, with a photo, and place a voice call for urgent events.
If lathes, presses and spinning frames standing still are costing you, idle checks for late starts and long stops are set up with you for the machines that matter.
- After-hours intrusion alerts around stores, scrap yards and gates
- Idle-machine checks for late starts and long stops
- A daily summary and a weekly PDF report

Questions
Questions, answered.
Will Foreman work on my existing DVR, or do I need new cameras?
We work with the cameras and recorders you already have. Hikvision, CP Plus and Dahua are the brands we connect to most around Coimbatore, and any standard RTSP or ONVIF DVR or NVR works too. No new cameras, no rewiring.
Foundry floors are hot, dusty and full of sparks. Will it keep raising false alarms?
A second, larger model checks every event before it reaches you, and our own AI models are trained in-house for Indian factory conditions, including dust, heat shimmer and low light. You also choose which areas and hours each rule covers, so the pour area is treated differently from the stores.
Is this a replacement for my fire alarm?
No. We only see what your cameras see: visible smoke and flame. We are not a heat or smoke sensor, so keep your certified fire alarms in place and treat us as the early visual warning on top.
What does it cost for a typical Coimbatore unit?
₹400 per camera per month, four cameras minimum (₹1,600 a month), plus GST. A 16-camera unit pays ₹6,400 a month. Pay yearly and get two months free. Start with the free 7-day trial on up to 32 cameras, no card.
Where does my video go?
Detection runs at your unit, so your recordings stay on site. We send event photos and clips, a small preview photo of each camera every few minutes, and live video only when you open it. Clips are deleted after 30 days. We never sell your data and never train on your footage.
Can I write my own rules?
Yes, in your own words, for example "If anyone is in the pattern shop after 9 pm, send me a photo." We apply each rule every night, on every camera you choose.
