Pricing approach
One quote. No per‑camera meter.
You pay for a one-time setup and a flat monthly Support fee of about $300 per typical building, with no per-camera fee. You own the hardware. We quote after the gap map so the numbers match your real buildings.
Three parts, one quote.
Gap map
A written map of what you have, what is missing and the path to go live. You can use it with us or without us.
Setup
The Pioneer computer, any storage you need for your retention choice, configuration, network separation and a staff walkthrough. If physical work is needed, the installer's line is shown separately.
Support
Updates, backup checks, remote support and monitoring of the system's health. No per-camera fee. Required with every install. A campus is quoted by buildings, cameras and doors.
The principles
How we price.
- No per-camera license. Adding a camera does not add a recurring charge.
- You own the hardware and your video.
- Itemized. Hardware, labor and support are separate lines.
- Sized to the site. A single school and a multi-building campus are quoted differently.
- Ongoing support is required. A system nobody maintains is the problem we are solving.
Compare it to your current bill
Bring us your renewal.
If you pay a cloud camera or access platform today, send us your latest renewal quote. We will put it next to a Pioneer quote line by line, including the parts that are not directly comparable. We do not publish a savings figure because it depends entirely on what you pay now.
Good to know
Related costs.
- Video retention needs disk. Pioneer can keep 30, 60 or 90 days of continuous recording on a drive we size at setup. A Mac mini alone is the brain, not a 60-day archive for many cameras.
- New hardware only when needed. A full rebuild with new cameras and wiring is an option when your gear is thin. It is not the default.
- Grants may offset some costs in some years. See funding.
