Frequently Asked Questions

How does the AI detect predators?

The Defender uses advanced computer vision trained on thousands of images of common farm predators. It can distinguish between threats (foxes, coyotes, hawks, raccoons) and harmless animals or people, reducing false alarms while ensuring real threats are caught.

What predators can it detect?

The system is trained to detect foxes, coyotes, hawks, raccoons, opossums, weasels, minks, owls, and other common chicken predators. The AI model is continuously updated with new predator data to improve accuracy.

How fast are the alerts?

Alerts are sent to your phone within 2-3 seconds of detection. The alarm and strobe lights activate immediately (under 1 second) to provide instant deterrence before the predator can reach your flock.

Does it work at night?

Yes! The Defender includes a 4K camera with advanced night vision capabilities. Predator detection works 24/7, and the infrared imaging ensures clear visibility even in complete darkness.

Can I add features later?

Yes! The system is designed with modular upgrades in mind. Start with Tier 1 (camera + AI alerts) and add light/sound deterrents or drone capabilities when you're ready.

What if I don't have WiFi in my coop?

The Defender includes cellular backup connectivity, so it will work even without WiFi. You can also use a WiFi range extender or mesh network to extend coverage to your coop area.

How is this different from a regular security camera?

Traditional cameras only record video - you have to watch footage later or monitor constantly. Defender actively detects predators using AI, sends instant alerts, and automatically triggers deterrents. It's proactive protection, not just passive recording.

When will it ship?

We're currently in final development and testing. Expected shipping is Q3 2026. Join the waitlist to be among the first to receive your Defender and stay updated on our progress.

What about false alarms?

Our AI is trained to minimize false positives by distinguishing predators from pets, people, and harmless wildlife. You can also adjust sensitivity settings and create activity zones to fine-tune detection for your specific setup.

Is installation difficult?

Installation is straightforward - mount the unit with a clear view of your coop, connect to power (solar or plug-in), and complete the 5-minute app setup. Detailed instructions and video guides are included, plus we offer phone support if needed.
