Every entry is a decision made without seeing the other side.
02Vantage reads the rooms.
Occupied, clear or no read, with confidence on each.
03The decision has a basis.
Your team plans the entry on evidence, and it is on the record.
A barricade, step by step
From warrant to seal.
06:00 · Authorize
No basis, no session.
The operator records the warrant: court, case number, address and time window. A supervisor confirms it. Only then does the session open.
06:02 · Read
Rooms resolve before the approach.
Occupied, clear or no read for every room, each with a confidence. The living room shows one person moving. Bedroom 1 shows two, still.
06:07 · Track
Movement, room to room.
When someone moves between rooms, the change is shown and time-stamped the moment it happens. The team leader sees the subject leave the living room for the hall.
06:12 · Plan
The plan uses what is known, and marks what is not.
The bath stays a no read, so the plan treats it as occupied. Vantage informs the plan. Your team still clears every room.
06:21 · Seal
Sealed and ready for review.
When the team closes the session, or the window ends, it seals. The basis, the operator and every reading are preserved for supervisors, discovery and testimony.

Missions
For the calls where the room decides the outcome.
Barricade
Where is the subject, and are they alone?
Room-level location and movement while negotiators work, without sending anyone to the door.
Hostage response
How many, and in which rooms.
Counts shown as honest ranges, updated as people move, so the plan never rests on a single guess.
High-risk warrants
Know which rooms are occupied before the knock.
A room-by-room read of the address on the warrant, inside its window, on the record.
Officer down
Find a downed officer or victim inside.
Locate a person who has stopped responding and, when conditions allow, whether they are still breathing, before the rescue team moves.
Doctrine
A reading informs the plan. It never clears a room.
Confirmed emptyA reading is not a clearance.
Confirmed empty means Vantage is confident no one is there. Your team still clears every room, every time.
No readUnknown is treated as occupied.
A room Vantage cannot read stays occupied in the plan until your team clears it. Vantage will never call it clear.
Built for scrutiny
Every reading traces back to its record.
In Kyllo v. United States, the Supreme Court held that using technology not in general public use to learn what is inside a home, which could not otherwise be known without going in, is a search. Vantage is built around that decision. No session opens without a recorded basis, and every reading lands in a sealed record that cannot be edited afterwards.
Vantage does not decide which basis is lawful. Your agency and its counsel do, and whether a record is admissible is for the court. Vantage makes sure the basis is on the record before anything is read.

Readings and sealed records can flow into the dispatch, records and evidence systems your agency already runs.
Questions from agencies
What commanders and counsel ask first.
Is a warrant always required?
Every session requires a recorded basis: a warrant, written consent, or an emergency basis with supervisor review afterward. Which basis applies is a legal decision for your agency and its counsel.
Can Vantage identify a suspect?
No. It reports presence, movement, breathing and a count for each room. It does not identify anyone, and it does not capture images or audio.
What about neighboring units?
Every session is tied to the address and scope recorded in its basis, and every reading is logged against it. Scope in multi-unit buildings is covered in every agency briefing.
Who can see the record?
Access is set by role, and every view of a record is itself logged. Sealed records cannot be edited in Vantage, and an integrity check shows whether anything has changed.
Can defense counsel obtain the record?
Sealed records can be exported for discovery through your agency’s normal process, with an integrity check that shows nothing was changed.
Can a reading justify a use of force?
No reading should be the sole basis for a use-of-force decision. Vantage is decision support. Your policy, your training and your officers’ judgment decide.
