Bottom line
Mark43 is a cloud-native public safety platform combining CAD dispatch, records management (RMS), first-responder mobile access and analytics on one system, with AI-assisted reporting marketed as ReportAI and BriefAI. The vendor reports more than 300 agencies, from local police and sheriff departments to federal agencies, and partners with AWS for hosting and security. Deployment is an agency-wide rollout rather than self-serve, and pricing is quote-based rather than published.
Frequently asked questions
How is Mark43 priced?
Mark43 does not publish list pricing. Contracts are quote-based and scoped to agency size, module mix and deployment, so buyers should expect a custom enterprise proposal rather than a self-serve plan, and should benchmark total cost against their current CAD/RMS contract.
How long does a Mark43 rollout take?
Mark43 does not publish an implementation timeline. Deployments cover CAD, RMS and mobile users across an entire agency, so plan for a phased, multi-month project and confirm the vendor's migration, training and cutover plan in the contract.
Is Mark43 FedRAMP High authorized?
Mark43 markets FedRAMP High under its federal solutions and maintains a Security & Compliance page describing certifications and attestations, with a Trust Center for documentation. Confirm the current authorization boundary and status for your agency during procurement.

Mark43 describes an AI-empowered platform with AI-powered reporting and investigations, naming ReportAI and BriefAI and publishing Responsible AI material. The sources do not state which model providers are used, whether customers can supply their own keys, or whether AI actions are logged for audit.
What support is included?
The vendor states it provides 24/7/365 support, including product training and real-time assistance, plus a public Help Center. Plan-level support tiers, dedicated account management and response-time SLAs are not published and should be negotiated.
What can Mark43 integrate with?
