Watchtower is the modern access control platform built for gated communities, HOAs, and CDDs. We help residents, property managers, and gate staff work together seamlessly to keep communities secure without the hassle.
For Residents
Take control of your guest access from anywhere. Create QR code passes for visitors in seconds, schedule recurring access for housekeepers or dog walkers, and get notified the moment someone arrives. No more call-ahead lists or waiting by the phone - your guests check in smoothly while you stay informed.
For Community Managers
Simplify operations with a centralized dashboard that handles resident onboarding, access permissions, and community-wide announcements. Watchtower integrates with Brivo access control hardware and Eagle Eye camera systems, giving you a unified view of gates, credentials, and video - all in one place. Generate reports, manage vendors, and maintain complete audit trails without juggling multiple platforms.
For Gate Staff
Mission Control puts everything gate attendants need at their fingertips. Verify visitors instantly, log entries with quick notes, and access resident information in real time. The intuitive interface means less training time and fewer errors at the gate.
Why Communities Choose Watchtower
Our platform supports multiple entry methods including mobile credentials, QR codes, key fobs, PIN codes, and license plate recognition. Residents can share guest passes via text or email, and visitors enjoy a frictionless check-in experience. Behind the scenes, you get powerful tools: scheduled access windows, emergency lockdown protocols, vendor management, and detailed activity logs.
Watchtower runs securely in the cloud with encrypted data storage, so your team can manage access from any device. And when you need help, our support team is ready to assist.
From single-gate neighborhoods to large multi-entrance communities, Watchtower scales to fit your needs. Upgrade your community's security with a platform designed for how people actually live.
Watchtower - smarter access for modern communities.
I am a Security committee member who helped choose JEKA Software to manage SI Security. They were the best company we interviewed, and their software execution has been exceptional. The security community & board members have received overwhelmingly positive feedback from residents. The watchtower app has been fantastic. Residents love being notified when they have a guest or contractor arriving. SI security has been enhanced. Residents can go on the app and modify guests/venders with ease. Whenever I have contacted JEKA officials, they have always respond quickly. Very pleased!
New updates look great

The updates in this new release really improved the look and navigation. We love the new Incident Reporting dashboard. Our community has used this tool for well over 100 reports and these improvements help us navigate and export the content. Excellent app and system overall!
