Consistent because it’s the truth. We do not and have never been in the business of monetizing data.

Our customers place cameras and have total control over where and how that information is shared with law enforcement.

There is no conspiracy theory here or “dark activity” behind doors.

We are trying to help people stay safe.

Welcome feedback or new ideas to make our communities safe.

That’s inaccurate. It’s opt-in, police request footage in a geofence, and as a Ring user, you can select to share or not. The police are only notified if you chose to share.

That’s inaccurate. We do not sell data.

congrats guys :)

congrats guys!

Neighborhood = Homeowners association or civic association.

Either Homeowners association or a Civic association. Both are legal entities.

IanCal, sorry you feel this way. Our goal is simply to help police do their job. Today, only 13% of crime is solved due to lack of evidence. We are trying to help drive that number to 100% and eliminate crime in our neighborhoods.

llsf, great points. we let the neighborhood decide who has access and how access is granted.

some neighborhoods give every resident unlimited access while others require a police report before logging in.

the neighborhood owns the data. we have zero plans to sell the data.

our goal is to provide police with the evidence they need to solve crime.

today only 13% of non-violent crime is solved. we think it should be 100%.

Alexro, there are clear and large signs about the cameras at the entrance to our neighborhoods.

Our neighborhoods are not large public roads, they are typically 100-400 home communities. You would never have to enter the community.

each neighborhood owns their data and they would have to opt-in to any type of data sharing between neighborhoods.

our goal isn't to build a big-brother system. we believe that if you are on a public road there isn't a perceived expectation of privacy.

Generally speaking, only gated communities are on private streets. Otherwise, every street is public and managed by the local city/county.

Hey sumoboy, you are right. Just having a picture of a suspect's face is rarely enough to prosecute. We constantly hear from Police that a license plate is the trick to start building a case.

Re: Pricing -- hard to put a price on something that can actually solve crime. In addition, most of our customers/prospects see more benefit to the technology than just solving crime (i.e., speeders).

Hey rudimental, Garrett (co-founder of Flock), we built this product because there wasnt a better way to solve crime in our neighborhoods.

Police are only able to solve 13% of cases due to lack of evidence. We are simply trying to provide the police with the evidence they need to do their job.

We believe this type of technology is inevitable (look at our highways and major city roads already). We believe the data should be owned by the community and not the government.

We care deeply about privacy which is why we (a) sell to neighborhoods and not the government, (b) only focus on cars/license plates and (c) allow residents to opt-out if they want to.
