Company Overview
About Flock Safety
Flock Safety is a public safety technology company providing automated license plate recognition (ALPR) cameras, drone-as-first-responder systems, gunshot detection, and integrated video intelligence platforms for law enforcement agencies, homeowner associations, businesses, and municipalities. Founded in 2017 by Garrett Langley in Atlanta, the company has grown rapidly by making crime investigation technology accessible to agencies that previously couldn't afford enterprise surveillance infrastructure. Flock's cameras capture "vehicle fingerprints" — not just license plates but distinctive vehicle attributes like make, model, color, and visible accessories — that help solve vehicle-related crimes.
Business Model & Competitive Advantage
Flock Safety has sold to over 5,000 law enforcement agencies and deployed 150,000+ cameras across the United States, enabling communities to solve vehicle-related crimes through automated BOLO (be on the lookout) matching when stolen vehicles, suspect cars, or Amber Alert vehicles pass Flock cameras. The company reports that communities using Flock solve crimes at 10x higher rates than national averages for vehicle-related cases. Its network effect is powerful: the more agencies share Flock's license plate database, the more effective any individual community's cameras become.
Competitive Landscape 2025–2026
Flock has raised over $380 million in funding from investors including Andreessen Horowitz, Bedrock Capital, and YCombinator. The company has expanded beyond cameras into Flock OS — a software platform integrating license plate data, video, gunshot detection, and drone footage into a unified investigative interface. Its drone-as-first-responder program, where drones respond to 911 calls before patrol cars, has been adopted by dozens of police departments seeking to improve response times and officer safety.
