Nothing installed at the shop
Your own DVR connects out and uploads a picture when its motion detection fires. No PC, no box, no app, no port forwarding — and the cameras stay as they are, analog ones included.
21After-hours CCTV alerts
At night nobody watches the DVR, and its own motion alerts ring for insects, rain and headlights until everyone ignores them. HDM Optix Guard is a cloud service that fixes that without installing anything at the shop: your DVR sends a snapshot when its motion detection fires, AI checks there is a person in it, and if the shop is shut the picture reaches your Telegram — then the next contact, and the next, until someone acknowledges.

What it solves
At night nobody watches the DVR, and its own motion alerts fire on insects, rain and headlights until everyone ignores them.
When the shop is shut, a confirmed person reaches your Telegram with the picture, then the next contact, until someone acknowledges.

Projected from comparable deployments — and observable in the console from day one once live.
Capabilities
The DVR you already own, watching the shop when you can't.
Your own DVR connects out and uploads a picture when its motion detection fires. No PC, no box, no app, no port forwarding — and the cameras stay as they are, analog ones included.
Every after-hours snapshot is checked by a person detector on HDM's servers. Below 75% confidence it is recorded and never sent, so a moth or a passing headlight wakes nobody.
Set opening hours for each weekday and add your holidays. Pictures that arrive while the shop is open are counted, never examined and never kept.
Your contacts stand in a ladder with a delay between them — owner first, then the manager, then the night guard. If nobody acknowledges, the next one gets the picture. One press of "I know — stop calling" in the panel ends it.
Set a heartbeat on the DVR and an armed site that stops sending pictures — a power cut, the internet down, the DVR switched off — raises "Site dark" on the same ladder.
Alerts say "Person in shop after hours", never intruder or thief. Each one carries its picture, the confidence, the time and the camera, so the judgement stays yours.

FAQ
No. Guard works with the DVR you already have — Hikvision, Dahua and CP Plus are guided step by step. Your DVR uploads a picture when its motion detection fires, and nothing is installed at the shop. The DVR must support FTP with encryption (FTPS): plain FTP is refused, and some older models cannot connect.
No video at all — only the still snapshots your DVR sends on motion. Pictures with nobody in them are never stored, and the rest delete themselves after 30 days.
On Telegram, with the picture. If you do not acknowledge, the next contact on your ladder is told, then the next. There are no phone calls, SMS or WhatsApp alerts — Telegram only.
No. Alerts say "Person in shop after hours" with the picture, the confidence, the time and the camera. The judgement stays yours.
Nothing reaches HDM while your line is down. If you set a heartbeat on the DVR, an armed site that goes quiet raises a "Site dark" alert on the same ladder.
