Localizit — Bluetooth & GPS Asset Tracking with AI Theft Recovery (UK)
Know where it is — the moment it moves. BLE crowd-tags and 4G GPS for quads, plant, tools, horse tack and high-value kit, with Cyril the AI watcher spotting theft patterns.
Localizit is the asset-tracking and theft-recovery platform built into the Take 2 Technology stack. It pairs paper-thin Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) crowd-tags — which piggyback on the billions of iPhones and Android devices already out in the world — with optional 4G GPS / cellular trackers for the highest-value or most remote assets. Tagged kit shows up live on private maps, with geofence alerts, movement history and instant push notifications. "Cyril, your AI watcher" sits in the background 24/7, distinguishing real theft from false alarms and surfacing patterns like convoys, silent tags and dying batteries before they become a problem. No SIM cards, no monthly data plans on BLE tags — buy once, track for years.
Key features
- BLE Crowd-Tag Tracking. Paper-thin Bluetooth tags — sticker, card, cable and capsule form factors — that piggyback on passing iPhones and Android devices to relay live position fixes back to your private dashboard. No SIM, no data plan, battery life measured in months to years.
- 4G GPS / Cellular Option. For higher-value or genuinely remote assets where you need live tracking without relying on nearby phones, Localizit's dashboard ingests 4G GPS tracker data through the same interface — one map, both technologies, one record.
- Cyril — the AI Watcher. 24/7 anomaly detection that learns each tag's normal pattern. Cyril spots convoys, silent tags, dying batteries and movement spikes, auto-flagging genuine theft events and suppressing the false alarms that train people to ignore alerts.
- Geofence Alerts per Site. Draw zones around yards, farms, sheds, workshops or domestic plots. Instant push and email notifications the moment a tagged asset crosses the line — entry, exit or both.
- Covert by Design. Localizit's private broadcast protocol does not trigger Apple's "unknown tracker" anti-stalking alerts on bystanders' phones — so a thief carrying off your quad bike does not get tipped off that your tag is on board.
- Stolen-Mode Detection. When a tagged asset moves outside its expected pattern — at night, away from its normal location, or in convoy with another suspicious tag — Cyril escalates to "stolen mode" with movement history and last-known position ready for the police report.
- Multi-Site Workspaces. Team-friendly dashboards with data isolation per site, role-based access and white-label options on higher tiers — useful for trade customers, fleet operators and rural-estate managers running multiple yards.
- Webhook & API Integration. Bring third-party BLE and 4G GPS hardware in through Localizit's webhook ingest, or query live position data out via the API — including the conversational "just ask Cyril" interface for custom integrations.
Picking the right Localizit hardware mix for your assets
The single biggest decision is BLE crowd-tag vs 4G GPS, and it almost always comes down to two questions: how often does the asset move, and how remote is its normal location? A workshop full of power tools spends 99% of its life inside a shed in a populated area — that's a BLE-crowd-tag case all day long, because passing phones and delivery vans will provide regular position fixes whenever the tools leave the yard. A high-value plant machine sitting on a remote rural site with no phone traffic for miles is the opposite — a 4G GPS tracker that broadcasts on its own schedule is the right answer, because you can't rely on crowd-tracking when there's no crowd.
The second question is what you do when an alert fires. Localizit's Cyril engine is designed to suppress the false alarms that train people to ignore notifications — but a genuine "this is moving and it shouldn't be" event still needs a human on the receiving end with a plan: who do you call, do you have police-ready evidence, do you want the tag's movement history exported? Most successful deployments work the response playbook through before buying the tags.
Frequently asked questions
How does the BLE crowd-tag tracking actually work?
Every Localizit BLE tag broadcasts a private identifier. Any iPhone or Android phone within range — at a petrol station, in traffic, in a shop — relays that beacon back to the Localizit network anonymously. There are billions of phones doing this every day, so when your quad bike or tool box moves, you typically get a position fix within minutes of it passing a phone, without anyone (including the phone's owner) being aware.
Will the thief's iPhone alert them that a Localizit tag is nearby?
No. Apple's "unknown tracker" anti-stalking system is tuned to detect specific protocols (most notoriously AirTag's). Localizit uses a private broadcast that doesn't trigger those alerts — so your tracker stays covert even when it's in someone else's pocket or van.
What's the difference between Localizit and an AirTag?
AirTags are designed for consumers tracking their own keys and luggage, with built-in anti-stalking alerts that announce the tag's presence to bystanders. Localizit is built for higher-value commercial and rural-asset tracking — covert by design, with geofencing, multi-site workspaces, AI anomaly detection and dashboard reporting that consumer trackers don't provide.
When do I need a 4G GPS tracker instead of a BLE tag?
Two cases. First, on assets where you need live, second-by-second tracking regardless of whether any phone is nearby — for example a van or HGV on a delivery run through the countryside. Second, on assets in genuinely remote areas with little phone traffic. For most yard-based, workshop-based or household kit, BLE crowd-tracking is more cost-effective and the battery lasts dramatically longer.
How long do the BLE tag batteries last?
Localizit BLE tags run for months to years depending on the form factor — the larger capsule and cable variants last longest, the slim sticker and card versions trade some life for discretion. Cyril flags dying batteries automatically so you can swap or replace before the tag goes silent.
What does it cost?
Localizit runs a tiered subscription model. Starter is £29/month for up to 10 tags, Pro is £49/month for up to 30 tags (the most popular tier), and Business is £149/month for up to 150 tags with priority support and white-label options. Hardware (the tags and 4G trackers themselves) is sold separately in packs — buy once, track for years on the BLE side.
Can I integrate Localizit with my existing GPS fleet system?
Yes. Localizit's webhook ingest accepts tracker payloads from third-party BLE and GPS / cellular devices, and the dashboard API plus the "just ask Cyril" conversational interface let you pull live position data into your own systems. Most trade customers use this to consolidate consumer-grade AirTag-style tracking, plant GPS and Localizit BLE under one private dashboard.
Is there a free option to try it?
Yes — Localizit offers a free starter tier so you can buy a small number of tags, set up your private dashboard and prove the concept before scaling. The waiting-list and beta cohorts are the typical entry point for trade and fleet customers.
