ARMED CONSOLE

MUGSHOT

A sentinel face keeps watch over your laptop while you are away. It detects grab-and-go, power unplugging, and tampering, then runs the alarm, photo capture, and phone notification as one seamless flow.

PRODUCT VIEW

See exactly what your laptop shows while you are away.

By showing the real ARMED screen as-is, you can instantly grasp what is displayed while you are away. The sentinel face, power state, battery, and monitoring status all fit on one screen.

USE CASES

You don't want to close it. But you need to step away.

MUGSHOT is a sentinel for short absences when you want to leave your PC running without sleeping it. It keeps your work going while watching only for grab-and-go, power unplugging, and tampering.

  • Stepping away for a few minutes at a café

    Picking up an order or a quick restroom break — short absences when closing the PC is awkward. It detects lifting or power unplugging and moves straight to an alarm.

  • Keep a job running with the screen open

    When you don't want to stop a build, an export, or an upload. Leave the screen on and let the work run while it watches for grab-and-go or power unplugging.

  • In a lounge or waiting area while traveling

    Airports, stations, event venues — busy places with lots of people coming and going. It eases the worry of leaving a charging laptop unattended.

CAPABILITIES

Deterrence, awareness, and evidence in one experience.

  • Power tamper detection

    Monitors for power-cable removal and charge-state changes, instantly tripping on suspicious activity while armed.

  • Evidence capture

    Automatically shoots with the front camera on a breach. It doesn't stop at an alarm — it preserves the scene as evidence.

  • ntfy notifications

    Push notifications to your phone via serverless ntfy. The captured photo is delivered along with it.

  • Passcode + biometrics

    Combines local PBKDF2 verification with device authentication. The unlock flow stays entirely on your device.

  • Cross-platform

    A Flutter-based native app that delivers the same experience across iOS, Android, macOS, and Windows.
