The problem

Manual gate logging misses every vehicle that matters.

Paper logs are incomplete

Manual vehicle registers are filled in inconsistently — plates are misread, timestamps are approximate and entries are missed during busy periods.

Gate delays slow turnaround

Manual identity checks create queues at the gate, delaying truck arrivals and extending dock dwell times.

Unauthorised vehicles enter unnoticed

Without automatic plate recognition, vehicles that should not be on site can enter unchallenged during busy periods.

No searchable vehicle history

When a theft or dispute occurs, tracing which vehicles were on site at a given time is time-consuming and often incomplete.

After-hours access is uncontrolled

Overnight truck arrivals and collections are often self-managed with no accurate record of entry or exit times.

No link between vehicles and loading

There is no automatic connection between a truck's gate entry time and the loading or unloading activity recorded at the dock.

What FlowLinks captures

Every vehicle, every plate, logged automatically.

Automatic Plate Recognition

Read and log number plates and licence plates for every vehicle entering or leaving the gate — regardless of time of day.

Entry & Exit Timestamps

Record the precise time each vehicle entered and exited the facility, with camera ID and gate location.

Truck & Vehicle Classification

Distinguish between trucks, vans, cars and other vehicle types to match activity with expected deliveries.

Unknown Vehicle Alerts

Alert security immediately when a vehicle not on the approved list attempts to enter the facility.

Searchable Vehicle Log

Search by plate, date, time or vehicle type to quickly find any entry or exit event in the historical record.

Link to Dock Activity

Connect gate entry times with dock loading records to build a complete picture of each truck's visit.

How it works

Live in days, not months.

1

Connect gate cameras

FlowLinks integrates with existing gate-facing CCTV or IP cameras. Camera angle and resolution are assessed during setup.

2

Build approved vehicle list

Add the plates of regular suppliers, staff and contracted carriers to the approved list for automatic recognition.

3

AI reads every plate

As vehicles approach the gate, the plate is read, timestamped and matched against the approved list in real time.

4

Unknown vehicles trigger an alert

If a plate is not on the approved list, an alert is sent to the security or gate contact with plate number and snapshot.

5

Full vehicle log accessible

All entries and exits are stored in a searchable log accessible from the dashboard, with export and API options.
