FAQ
Frequently asked questions.
Everything you need to know about Foxworth, from getting started to privacy architecture.
Getting Started
What is Foxworth?
Foxworth is an AI estate intelligence platform that unifies security, automation, and property management under one system. It runs entirely on-site using NVIDIA Jetson hardware — no cloud dependency.
Where is Foxworth available?
Foxworth is currently available by invitation. Contact us to discuss availability in your area.
How do I get started?
Fill out the waitlist form at foxworth.ai/waitlist. Our team reviews submissions within 48 hours and arranges a private consultation to discuss your property.
Is there a minimum property size?
There's no strict minimum, but Foxworth is designed for properties where security and automation complexity justifies the investment. Typical clients have 200+ sqm homes with existing automation or security infrastructure.
Technology
Does Foxworth require an internet connection?
No. Core functionality — security monitoring, automation, face recognition, drone deployment — all runs on local hardware. Internet is only needed for remote access and software updates.
What hardware is installed?
An NVIDIA Jetson edge compute module (the AI brain), plus any cameras or sensors your property needs. For Noctua packages, a weatherproof drone dock is installed.
Does Foxworth replace my existing systems?
No. Foxworth integrates with your existing Crestron, KNX, Lutron, and other systems. We add the intelligence layer — we don't replace hardware.
How does face recognition work?
Faces are enrolled in a local database. The AI recognizes known persons (family, staff, regular visitors) and can trigger automations accordingly. All facial data is stored on-site, never in the cloud.
Noctua Drones
Is the drone legal?
Foxworth operates within local drone regulations. In most jurisdictions, autonomous security drones operating within private property boundaries at low altitude are permitted. We handle all regulatory compliance during installation.
What happens in bad weather?
Noctua is rated IP55 and operates in rain and wind up to 40 km/h. In extreme weather (storms, heavy snow), the drone remains docked and the camera-based security system continues operating.
How loud is the drone?
During normal patrol, Noctua is barely audible from inside the house. During a threat response, volume is intentional — the 125dB siren and voice warnings are designed to be heard and to deter.
What's the battery life?
40+ minutes of flight time. The dock charges the drone automatically between flights. Full charge takes approximately 45 minutes.
Pricing & Service
What does Foxworth cost?
Manor starts from €15,000. Manor + Noctua from €25,000. Estate (multi-building, multi-drone) is custom quoted. All prices include hardware, installation, and 12 months of maintenance.
Are there recurring fees?
The first 12 months of maintenance are included. After that, an optional maintenance plan is available from €200/month covering software updates, remote support, and hardware warranty.
Can I install it myself?
No. Foxworth is professionally installed by certified engineers. This ensures correct integration, optimal camera placement, and proper drone dock positioning.
What's the installation timeline?
Manor: 1-2 days. Manor + Noctua: 2-3 days. Estate: 3-5 days depending on property size. We schedule around your availability.
Privacy & Security
Where is my data stored?
On your property. The NVIDIA Jetson edge computer stores all data locally. No camera feeds, facial embeddings, or system logs are transmitted to any cloud server.
Can Foxworth employees access my cameras?
No. Remote support uses an encrypted tunnel that requires your explicit authorization each time. We cannot access cameras or recordings without your active permission.
Is Foxworth GDPR compliant?
Yes. On-site processing, no cloud data transfer, explicit consent for facial enrollment, data retention controls, and right-to-erasure support are all built in.
What happens if someone jams the wireless?
Foxworth uses multi-band anti-jam communications (2.4GHz + 868MHz + UWB + powerline fallback). Jamming one frequency triggers automatic failover to alternatives. Jamming detection itself triggers an alert.
