The gate that doesn't need a guard.
License-plate recognition — ANPR/LPR — reads and clears the plate in under a second, so the gate's already opening as the vehicle arrives, every crossing logged, every site on one dashboard. It installs on the gate you already have.
Fully managed · free site assessment · compatibility answer in 48 hours · check your gate
A short film, license-plate recognition at the gate, and the dashboard that runs it.
Replaces the manual gate guard. Keeps your gate.
A vehicle approaches and its plate is read and authorized in under a second, so the gate is already opening as it arrives, with a barrier arm, it doesn't stop at all. No cards, no remotes, no guard booth. Every crossing is logged with a plate snapshot, full vehicle image, and a short video clip. Runs on-site, so the gate keeps working even if your internet drops. And we run it for you, hardware, software, and support from one team, so retiring the guard doesn't hand you a system to manage.
Knows your regulars. Handles the rest.
A guard recognizes the regulars and waves them through, and figures out the strangers. GateGuardX does both, automatically, around the clock.
It reads the plate of someone you know.
An authorized plate? The gate opens in under a second, the same rule every time, proven across 1.3M+ openings, and it runs at the gate even with no internet. It never opens on a guess.
How it reads any plateIt handles the “not on the list” case.
When a plate is not recognized, the AI talks to the visitor, verifies the reason for entry, applies your rules, and sends uncertain cases to your team. Every exchange is logged.
How the AI agent worksKnown vehicles open automatically. Unknown visitors are screened, logged, and escalated when needed.
Reads the plates single-shot cameras miss.
Most LPR systems take one photo and hope it's enough. Ours doesn't. Continuous License Plate Scanning (CLPS) captures dozens of frames per pass, then keeps the clearest one, so it can read dirty, bent, and fast-moving plates in dust, rain, glare, headlights, and low light, the conditions that defeat single-shot cameras. The result: 99.9% accuracy across 8,000+ U.S. plate designs, and it reads any Latin-alphabet plate internationally.
Because CLPS reads while the vehicle is still moving, most drivers never have to stop. It also handles wide gates with traffic moving both ways, not just narrow single-lane entries.
Three small parts. Your gate stays.
The whole kit bolts onto the gate you already have, no digging, no rewiring, no structural work. Modular and fully reversible: cancel within 30 days and we remove it without a trace.

Gate camera
Reads plates clearly in any weather, day or night. Most sites need just one.

On-site computer
A small computer that decides who gets in, right at the gate, in under a second. The gate keeps working even if the internet drops.

Smart controller
Tells your gate when to open, using the same wiring your remotes already plug into.
You provide a powered gate, power, and internet, we provide everything else, configured for your site before it ships. No recurring hardware costs.
Every crossing, every site. One screen.
A live log of every vehicle across all your gates, newest first: plate, direction, site, and the gate's decision.
Clear a visitor from anywhere, right from your pocket.
Type the plate, set how long, tap Create. The gate opens for that vehicle the moment it arrives, no booth, no call, no code to share.
Times are in Chicago (CDT) (GMT-05:00).
When the plate isn't on the list, the AI runs the conversation.
When a plate is not on the list, Conversational AI can greet the visitor, check your rules, and either approve, deny, or escalate. Anything it cannot verify stays shut and is logged.
A small, senior team, in production since 2023.
GateGuardX started in 2023 as a custom build for an oilfield logistics operator in Midland, Texas, that gate still runs 24/7 today. Hardware, computer vision, platform, and support all live in one team, built, not bundled. We deploy it, monitor it, and keep it running, so when you call, you reach the people who built it, not a reseller. We deploy internationally, with live sites in the US, UK, and Serbia and a new one underway in Trinidad & Tobago. US customers contract with the US company; elsewhere, we set up the right way to work together.
These numbers come from real deployments, live sites running GateGuardX in the US, UK, and Serbia, with a new one underway in Trinidad & Tobago, measured across 1.3M+ gate openings since 2023, not lab tests. See who runs it.
“The gate now allows access seamlessly, eliminating manual checks and reducing human error while improving traffic flow in and out of the yard.”
Built for sites where compliance isn't optional.
Every image, log, and plate is encrypted, both stored and in transit. Each person gets only the access they need, every login is protected with two-step sign-in, and you control how long data is kept (CCPA- and GDPR-ready).
The quick answers before you reach out.
- Will it work on my existing gate?
- Yes — if your gate opens by motor and a remote or button, GateGuardX can open it (90+ gate and barrier brands). Send two photos and we'll confirm your gate within 48 hours. It installs on the gate you already have, no rebuild.
- Do I have to replace any hardware?
- No. The camera, the small on-site computer, and the controller all bolt onto the gate and motor you already have, no digging, no rebuilding, and fully reversible.
- How long does installation take?
- Under a day per gate once the kit is on site, typically 2–3 hours residential, about half a day industrial.
- What does it cost?
- A one-time hardware kit plus a monthly platform fee. Residential gate automation starts around $3,500 plus $299/mo, fully managed on a 24-month agreement; logistics and multi-site are quoted per site, sized to your gates and lanes. Send a few photos and we'll come back with an exact quote, usually within 48 hours.
- Does it keep working if the internet drops?
- Yes. Everything runs at the gate itself, so gates keep opening from the saved list of approved vehicles, and the full record updates online once the connection is back.
Every month the booth stays is about $18,000 you don't get back.
A 24/7 guard post runs $14,400–$18,000 a month, about $216,000 a year, at standard US contract rates, before overtime, no-shows, and turnover. GateGuardX runs on the gate you already have for a fraction of that. The hardware is paid once; the wait is paid every month. Run your own gate's number before you decide.
Replace the guard booth. Keep your gate.
Send a few details and photos of your gate, we'll confirm compatibility and send a detailed quote, usually within 48 hours. It installs on the gate you already have. Evaluating seriously? Ask for a reference call with a customer in a setting like yours.
