Built by law enforcement, for law enforcement 

DORS was built by officers with a vision to spend less time tied to routine paperwork and more time spent making a real safety impact for their community. That’s how DORS became the first citizen online reporting platform for law enforcement in 2005.

Setting the standard for citizen online reporting systems

DORS has set the standard from the beginning as a force-multiplier for agencies and a game-changer for the communities they serve through the successful management of hundreds of incident types online. 

Today, DORS, unlike other online reporting tools, continues to modernize and improve. A new feature guides citizens through dynamic minor incident reporting with the help of Field Clarity an AI-guided video assistant, allowing citizens to enter a short description of their situation to kick off a conversational dialogue with the virtual assistant who helps them film on-scene evidence to speed up and improve data accuracy that’s fed directly into the agency’s Record Management System (RMS). The result is a better experience for citizens, more efficient workflows for officers and stronger documented cases for investigators.

What real agency leaders are saying

“The officers love that they are getting some reprieve from calls. Especially those minor crash and hit-and-run reports. It’s a time-saver for not only the victim, but also the police department.”
Captain Katie Diehl
Lansing Police Department


“Some people are hesitant to talk to the police. By using DORS, it gives them the ability at their leisure to go online and report stuff they wouldn’t normally report.” 
Chief Gary Thoman
Pelham Police Department
