Communities deserve to see how the technology operating in their neighborhoods actually works. Every search requires a standardized offense type before it can run. Every search creates a record of who ran it, when, and why. Flock Transparency Portal gives agencies a public-facing way to share policies, usage, and live audit data with the people they serve.

City-wide challenges don't fit neatly into one department. Why should your technology? On June 23rd, join public safety and municipal leaders from across Ohio for a virtual Flock Forum to see how police, fire, public works, and city leadership can work from the same platform to improve coordination, response, and decision-making. We’ll also talk about our newest compliance tools within the Flock platform. Don’t miss out! → Register Now: bit.ly/4g1g7LB

This guy got caught damaging Flock cameras (a felony). The cops chased him and caught him. Now he faces years in prison. People are being manipulated into throwing away their lives to destroy police equipment because of targeted misinformation campaigns.
A wanted driver thought he could get away from police on a busy Georgia roadway. But officers deployed one of the most effective tools being put in the hands of police: the Grappler. Dashcam video shows Atlanta police firing a Grappler from the front of a patrol vehicle, wrapping the truck's rear tire in a heavy-duty tether and bringing it to a controlled stop before a chase could even begin. Police say the driver was wanted for allegedly destroying multiple Flock cameras used by law enforcement to help solve local crimes and now faces property damage, interference with government property, and drug charges.

Flock Forward was built for leaders thinking carefully about how their departments evolve. This August in Atlanta, law enforcement leaders from across the country will come together for focused conversations around technology, operations, investigations, and what holds up in the field. Direct discussions. Real deployments. Practical takeaways. We hope you’ll join us at Flock Forward 2026. Register now: bit.ly/3PwQvLL #FlockForward #PublicSafety #LawEnforcement #CommunitySafety

“Trust us” is not a security strategy. The strongest systems are the ones communities can review, question, and verify. That means independent audits, clear policies, local control, and transparency around how technology is actually used. Because accountability should be built in, not added later. See the conversation.

Awesome takedown video. Suspects assault and rob the victims, and then @SFPD uses @Flock_Safety ALPR drones to locate and arrest them. This tech is helping thousands of agencies, every day, keep Americans safe.

Informed before arrival. That's the difference. Most officers reach a scene with only a dispatch summary. Flock911 provides live streaming of the 911 call audio, along with the transcript and caller location, directly to patrol. This ensures that officers have a clear understanding of the situation before they step out of their vehicles. Discover how the @fortworthpd achieves faster response times, enhanced situational awareness, and safer outcomes for both officers and the communities they serve with Flock911.

Oakland didn't know how bad the stolen vehicle problem was. Then Flock license plate readers generated 210,000 alerts in six months! The volume was so high OPD called it "astronomical." See the full story. garryslist.org/posts/flock-f…

A lot of confusion about license plate readers starts from a single assumption: that the system is built to gather as much personal information as possible. Flock is built the opposite way. Cameras focus on vehicles, not faces. Data is captured from public roads in plain view. Default retention is 30 days unless local law requires something different. Clarity about the product is part of the product. Learn more: bit.ly/4uHLXBq

Benjamin Franklin's most-cited quote against public safety technology was written in 1755 to argue the opposite point. Flock CEO @glangley breaks down the original source. Franklin was making the case for public defense, governed by elected officials, accountable to their communities. Read the full post flocksafety.com/blog/reading…

Some of the hardest cases we support are cases like this. They involve no actual crime. Police have no witnesses. No suspect. No motive. The person they're looking for can't help them. So what do you do? That’s what first responders face with most Silver Alerts. These cases are common because dementia is so common. Recently, an elderly man in Aurora, with multiple medical conditions, was reported missing. Officers and @Flock_Safety helped quickly locate him and get him home safely to his family. If you don’t have a camera that can find a license plate in these cases, what do you have when a family calls for help?

Flock is a public safety technology company supporting safer communities nationwide. @theallinpod recently broke down how it works: towns choose it, communities deploy it, states regulate it. Bottom-up by design. Watch the full episode: bit.ly/4opAnZv

Crime is now a choice. Agree with @GavinSBaker in @chamath, @Jason, @DavidSacks and @friedberg's recent @theallinpod episode. Safety used to follow wealth. Where there was money, there was safety. Where there was not, families were left to absorb the difference. Today? That's over. @Flock_Safety partners are reducing crime month after month, with a cost of less than $20 per person, per year. Some of the biggest drops come from places that had been told for decades it wasn’t possible. Greenville, MS. Poverty rate above 20% for decades. Violent crime rate the New York Times wrote about. 79% reduction in less than a year with Flock. 90% reduction in homicide. As communities get safer, I think it’s going to feel strange to visit some of the wealthiest parts of America that choose to allow crime to flourish.

“This technology has the potential to reduce unnecessary risk, improve response capabilities, and enhance public safety for the entire Fort Worth community.” – Fort Worth Police Chief Eddie García @fortworthpd launched its Drone as First Responder program with Flock, giving officers real-time aerial awareness before they arrive. Every flight is logged, auditable, and visible on a public transparency dashboard.

A plate hit is the start of an investigation, not the end of one. LPR Pro gives agencies the connected intelligence to move faster across jurisdictions, surface patterns and accomplices, and solve more complex cases without adding staff or systems. It's everything your team already relies on in standard LPR, plus the tools built for what comes after the alert. Join the waitlist and be first in line: bit.ly/3SeEuLz

The most expensive security decision is usually the one made too late. Most companies don’t ignore security because they don’t care. They ignore it because it feels easier to deal with later. But later can mean rebuilding systems, redesigning hardware, or trying to retrofit trust after the fact. Chris explains why security decisions made early matter most. Watch the full answer.
