It integrates with the vehicle's existing wiring and offers a mobile app for arming/disarming and monitoring.

Glass break and impact sensors that detect screwdriver prying or window smash
Real-time push notification to phone with alert type and vehicle location
Keyless arm/disarm via smartphone app
Battery backup and tamper alarm if wiring cut

Target Users: Truck owners (especially of high-value models like Ford Raptor) in areas with high vehicle theft/break-in rates, small to medium fleets, and individual owners who want aftermarket security.

Revenue Model: Hardware sold for $199-$299 plus optional $4.99/mo subscription for cellular monitoring and cloud storage of event logs.
