Child Protection Technology

Native Brigade

Veteran-led child protection and community safety platforms delivering real-time threat monitoring, trafficking detection, and survivor-centered protection at regional and national scale.

A Law-Enforcement Integrated Child Recovery System.

Native Brigade builds the technology that closes the gap between an incident and an operational response. Founded by Jeffrey Pimentel — retired law enforcement officer, Air Force veteran, and 17-year intelligence community professional — Native Brigade is a Native American Disabled Veteran-Owned Small Business (SDVOSB). TPG serves as the strategic business development and government-market partnership layer.

Sentinel Guard™

Covert Activation Hardware

Sentinel Guard™ is a discreet emergency activation device engineered for covert use in high-risk situations. Unlike visible wearables or phone-based apps, it is designed to remain undetectable and unremovable — so it cannot be taken or disabled during the critical moments after an incident.

  • Covert form factor — undetectable, unremovable
  • Active mode: human-triggered emergency activation
  • Passive mode: environment-triggered (geofence, behavioral)
  • Engineered for child abduction, autism elopement, dementia wandering, undercover LE, executive protection, and military personnel recovery
  • Texas A&M / TEES validated; U.S. patent application filed

Adams Watch™

Law-Enforcement Routing Backend

Adams Watch™ is the secure platform that routes Sentinel Guard activations directly to law enforcement agencies — bypassing consumer notification chains that delay response. Built for the professionals trained to respond, not the apps that wait for parents to check their phones.

  • Direct routing to law enforcement agencies on activation
  • Bypasses guardian / consumer notification chains
  • Authenticates each activation and transmits forensic data
  • Location, device identifiers, telemetry in real time
  • Closed-loop architecture: Activate → Route → Respond

What Makes Native Brigade Different

Covert by Design

Sentinel Guard™ is engineered to be undetectable and unremovable — unlike visible wearables and phone-based apps that can be disabled, taken, or removed during the critical moments after an incident.

Direct Law-Enforcement Routing

Adams Watch™ bypasses consumer notification chains. Emergency activations route directly to law enforcement agencies, eliminating the delay between alert and operational response.

Veteran-Founded, Federal-Ready

Native Brigade is a Native American Disabled Veteran-Owned Small Business (SDVOSB) founded by Jeffrey Pimentel — retired law enforcement officer, Air Force veteran, and 17-year intelligence community professional.

Built for those who cannot reach for a phone.

Sentinel Guard™ and Adams Watch™ deploy across crisis scenarios where conventional safety tools fall short. The platform operates in two modes — depending on whether the protectee can consciously trigger the device, or whether the environment must trigger it for them.

SGAW Active
Human-Triggered

The protectee discreetly activates the device themselves. Designed for undercover law enforcement, executive protection, military personnel, field operators, and trafficking victims with the means to self-activate.

SGAW Passive
Environment-Triggered

The device activates automatically when conditions warrant — geofence violation, fall detection, behavioral patterns. Designed for those who cannot trigger the device themselves: non-verbal children, dementia patients, the very young.
