Zela

Zela is a Latin American vertical SaaS company building the end-to-end operating system for private security companies. The platform enables security firms to manage guard attendance, real-time field operations, and payroll entirely through WhatsApp — requiring no app downloads or special training — and supports teams ranging from 50 to thousands of guards. Guards check in via QR code, GPS, facial verification, and registered phone, while supervisors gain live visibility into coverage and can export payroll-ready reports in Excel or Google Sheets. Founded and operating from Latin America with a global-first vision, Zela aims to digitize a fragmented, paper-based industry.
