The system features touchless wave-to-unlock capabilities, remote lockdown management, and real-time occupancy tracking across multi-site enterprise environments. Now part of Avigilon (Motorola Solutions), it integrates directly with video surveillance and enterprise IT systems.

Founder story
Openpath was founded in 2016 in Culver City, California, by Alex Kazerani, James Segil, Samy Kamkar, and Phil Goldsmith. Having experienced friction with legacy keycard systems in previous ventures, the founders set out to build a modern, mobile-first access control system. In July 2021, Motorola Solutions acquired Openpath for $297 million to expand its physical security portfolio.
