Your Madurai unit already has cameras. Foreman makes them earn their keep.

Madurai's industry runs on textiles and food: spinning mills and weaving units with a century of history behind them, garment and job-work floors, food-processing and packaging units, and godowns holding yarn, cloth and finished stock. They all share one problem: nobody is watching the cameras. Foreman plugs into the DVR you already own and sends a WhatsApp or Telegram alert, with photo proof, the moment something goes wrong. Setup takes about 30 minutes. Free 14-day pilot on 4 cameras, no card.

Built for the way Madurai actually works

Madurai's mills and processing units are mostly owner-run and margin-tight. A spinning mill lives and dies by frames that keep turning; a food-processing unit lives by hygiene, uptime and stock that must move before it spoils; a godown full of yarn or packed goods is a year's working capital sitting in one room.

Every one of these units has CCTV, and almost none of it is watched live. Theft, fire and stoppages are discovered the next morning, on footage, after the loss is already done. Foreman changes what those cameras are for: from recording losses to preventing them.

  • Software only, runs on the DVR and cameras you already own
  • Watches every camera, every second, across all shifts
  • Alerts on WhatsApp or Telegram with photo proof, within seconds
  • Our own AI models, trained in-house for Indian factory conditions

Fire watch for mills, packing floors and godowns

Cotton, yarn, packaging film and cartons are dense fuel, and mill electrical systems work overtime through the summer. In a food unit, a small electrical fire near the packing line can contaminate far more than it burns. A fire seen at second ten is an incident. The same fire at minute ten is the loss that decides your year.

Foreman watches your cameras for the first visible signs of smoke and flame and alerts you in seconds, with a photo, while the fire is still one corner of one rack. It complements your certified fire-alarm systems; it never replaces them.

  • Visual smoke and flame detection from existing cameras, day and night
  • An early layer on top of, never a substitute for, certified fire systems
  • Every event is double-checked before an alert fires, so alerts stay real

Night theft, shift attendance and idle frames

Yarn, cloth and packed food stock all move easily and sell easily, which is why they disappear from unwatched godowns at night. Foreman knows when your premises should be empty and flags any person or vehicle near your godown, gate or loading area when no one should be there, with a photo and a voice call.

Rules are written in plain Tamil, Hindi or English: "If anyone opens the godown shutter after 9 pm, send me a photo and call me." Foreman follows that rule every night without getting sleepy. It also counts heads shift by shift, so attendance matches reality rather than the register, and flags spinning frames and packing lines that sit stopped while you pay wages around them.

  • After-hours intrusion alerts around godowns, gates and loading areas
  • Headcount and attendance, shift by shift, from the cameras you have
  • Idle-machine tracking: late starts, long stops, frames not earning
  • Daily WhatsApp/Telegram digest plus a weekly report

Works on the DVRs Madurai installers already fit

Foreman plugs into existing Hikvision, CP Plus and Dahua DVRs and NVRs, and most other standard RTSP/ONVIF systems. No new hardware, no new cameras, no rewiring. Setup takes about 30 minutes, done remotely with your own CCTV installer or computer person, on normal broadband.

Detection runs on-site, so continuous footage stays inside your unit; only short clips around a detected event go to the cloud for a second check before any alert fires. Clips are stored in India and auto-deleted after 30 days. We never sell data.

  • Hikvision, CP Plus, Dahua and most standard RTSP/ONVIF DVRs/NVRs supported
  • About 30 minutes to set up, remotely, with your existing installer

Frequently asked

Will Foreman work on my existing DVR, or do I need new cameras?

It works on the CCTV you already have. Hikvision, CP Plus and Dahua connect directly, and most standard RTSP/ONVIF DVRs and NVRs work too. No new cameras, no rewiring.

Is this a replacement for my fire alarm?

No. Foreman detects the visible signs of smoke and flame through your cameras; it is not a heat or smoke sensor. Keep your certified fire-safety systems in place. Foreman adds a fast visual early warning on top.

Does it work inside a food-processing unit, with steam and washdowns?

Yes. Our own AI models are trained in-house for Indian factory conditions, and every event is double-checked before an alert fires, so steam and routine activity do not become false alarms.

What does it cost for a typical Madurai unit?

Sentry ₹2,999/mo (6 cameras), Supervisor ₹7,999/mo (16), Factory OS ₹19,999/mo (40). Annual prepay = 2 months free. Start with the free 14-day pilot on 4 cameras, no card.

Where does my footage go?

Detection runs on-site, so continuous footage never leaves your premises. Only short clips around a detected event go for a second check; they are stored in India and auto-deleted after 30 days. We never sell data.

Who sets it up? We do not have an IT person.

Your existing CCTV installer or computer person, together with our team, remotely. The whole setup takes about 30 minutes on normal broadband, and the first real alert typically lands soon after connecting.
