Sentinel is a modern Consolidated Report Entry System built to streamline and organize end-of-shift reporting for law enforcement and security operations. Replace outdated legacy systems, paper logs, and scattered spreadsheets with one centralized platform that keeps your entire command staff aligned, accountable, and informed.
Replace Outdated Systems
Sentinel modernizes your agency's reporting workflow. Say goodbye to:
Legacy Software
Outdated desktop applications with limited access and no mobile support
Outdated Web Apps
Clunky browser-based systems with poor UX, slow performance, and limited features
Paper-Based Logs
Handwritten reports that are hard to search, share, or preserve
Scattered Spreadsheets
Multiple Excel files with no version control or audit trail
Email Chains
Critical information buried in overflowing inboxes
Manual Data Entry
Duplicate entry across multiple disconnected systems
No Audit Trail
Systems that don't track who changed what and when
Streamlined Reporting Features
Consolidated Shift Reports
All shift data in one organized entry: calls for service, arrests, traffic stops, K9 deployments, accidents, and more. A structured workflow moves reports from Draft to Final with complete accountability at every step.
Smart Duty Rosters
Assign officers to zones with roles and responsibilities. Save roster templates for quick deployment. Track who created each roster and when, with full edit history.
Incident Documentation
Log every incident with case numbers, locations, categories, and detailed summaries. Search across all incidents by date, type, or keyword. Never lose track of what happened on any shift.
Microsoft Teams Integration
Push reports and incidents directly to Teams channels as rich, interactive cards. Keep command staff informed instantly. Configure multiple channels for different notification types.
Automated Email Reports
Schedule daily email summaries to leadership. Send instant notifications for critical incidents. Configure recipients, timing, and content. Late entry follow-ups ensure nothing gets missed.
Professional PDF Export
Generate print-ready PDF reports with complete formatting. Includes all metrics, duty rosters, incident details, and summaries. Perfect for records, briefings, and legal documentation.
Real-Time Collaboration
Multiple supervisors can work on the same report simultaneously without conflicts.

Audit & Compliance
Built for agencies that need to meet strict documentation and accountability standards.
Permanent Audit Logging
Every action is logged permanently and cannot be deleted. Track logins, report edits, status changes, and more. Filter by user, action type, or date range. Export audit trails as PDFs for legal proceedings.
Four-Stage Workflow
Reports progress through Draft → Active Shift → Submitted → Final. Each stage has specific permissions. Final reports are locked and preserved for records. Prevents accidental modifications to completed reports.
User Accountability
Every entry tracks who created it, who last edited it, and when. Supervisor assignments are recorded. Incident documentation includes officer attribution. Full transparency for command review.
Report Status Workflow
Watch how reports progress through the four-stage workflow. Each status change is automatic based on shift times or manual supervisor action.
