Yet, as you step out the next morning, ready for work, you're faced with a stunning turn of events—your car has been stolen. On December 11, 2024, I demonstrated my geofence notifications well outside my usual area, Chicago. Flying to 'The ATL,' I rented a vehicle specifically to showcase my geofencing alert system amid a rash of vehicle thefts at Atlanta's Hartsfield Airport. Moments after driving past the perimeter of the Atlanta Airport, my vehicle tracking and notification system activated. Yes, I installed this system in the rental car in under a minute, without voiding any warranties—a feat no other system I'm aware of can match.   ![Hartsfiels Airport](https://beta.vkindustrialiot.com/hs-fs/hubfs/Hartsfiels%20Airport.png?width=584&height=117&name=Hartsfiels%20Airport.png)   Personally, I would want a system that provides this level of visibility anywhere in the USA. I just posted about the 300% increase in vehicle thefts at [Atlanta's airport here](https://beta.vkindustrialiot.com/blog/how-to-protect-your-car-from-increasing-airport-thefts-and-beyond-the-urgent-issue-at-hand). You would think that your ride would be safe at the airport, but think again. We always think this will never happen to us, but you never know when your card will be pulled for stolen vehicle drama. Whether you are in Chicago or Atlanta, I can protect your ride at the airport and everywhere in-between. From NYC to Cali, we have you covered. Rest assured that within 1,000 feet of your designated geofence, you will get alerted that your vehicle is not where you left it. Let's fast forward from Dec 11, 2024, to Feb 28, 2025; we have just implemented text message (SMS) based geofence alerting and notifications. What service provides you with three means of geofence notification (Email, SMS, and Slack)? I can't think of a service that does that. Your favorite auto dealer is only concerned about selling you a vehicle and a security system at the highest possible price with no real regard for your personal safety. Stand with VKIIOT and we will have your back every step of the way.     Wait!!!! Geofencing is just the tip of the proverbial iceberg. We cut our teeth on helping mitigate the pain if you are ever carjacked. Yes, if you are ever victimized by a carjacking, and they take your mobile device, we can still get emergency alerts out to your loved ones in seconds along with a real-time vehicle tracking link showing your vehicle moving every 10 seconds or less. Your personal circle of friends and family can use 'text to 911' (if available in your area), to get you the help you need in your time of need. Carjackers will never know what hit them due to our stealth notification systems.   Join VKIIOT in our first beta test, expected to launch in Chicago during Q1 - 2025. Once we go live in Chicago, we will assess the locations with the greatest need and deploy there next.
