Compare Pulcify and Belfry for security guard management. Both cover scheduling, time tracking, incidents and payroll; Pulcify goes deeper on compliance, with facial-recognition check-ins and an AI assistant on WhatsApp.
Belfry is a capable all-in-one for US security guard management, built to work broadly across all 50 states. Pulcify takes the opposite approach — a security-specialist, compliance-first platform that goes deep on the regulatory regime guarding firms actually operate under. We match Belfry's core (scheduling, time tracking, incidents, payroll) and add facial-recognition check-ins and an AI assistant Belfry doesn't offer. In tightly regulated states like Georgia — with its Rule 509 training mandate and employer-tied armed registrations — that compliance depth is what keeps agencies audit-ready.
Belfry tracks certificate expiries and links you to each state's manual lookup. Pulcify is built around the compliance workflow itself — per-role requirements, document storage and expiry verification — with SIA/BS7858 audit packs already shipped and a compliance engine designed to model country- and state-specific licensing rules.
Liveness-verified facial recognition with geofencing eliminates buddy-punching.
Query officers, shifts and compliance in plain English across web, WhatsApp and Telegram.
