Need a job site camera. Any inexpensive suggestions?

Not sure I could get WiFi access from neighbors so I’m looking for a solution that would have cellular capabilities. This is primarily for theft purposes, but also to monitor the job to see who is onsite. I need one camera at a minimum, but two would be nice. I’d want cloud recording. Also prefer battery/solar but I could run electricity to it if needed.

Have a buddy who has an Arlo 4G LTE camera to put on his job sites, he loves it.

Didn’t realize Arlo made cellular cameras. Looking in to now. Thanks for the haleads up.
I have an unlimited plan with AT&T. It looks like the camera is $350 and the monthly data is $20. For a 6-7 month job, I’m looking at $500 total which isn’t that bad.
I guess the downside is I have to pay a little more if I want Arlo to store the recordings more than 7 days.

I'm bumping this to see if anyone has any other suggestions. I ordered an Arlo Go from AT&T, but after a couple hours on the phone I can't get it connected to my account. The short version is they never updated the website to reflect the fact that they stopped allowing this to be connected to the unlimited data plans and they refuse to honor the $20/month deal I signed up for.
So my options were to setup a new account with 4GB/month for $50/month. Or change my phone away from the unlimited plan which isn't an option with the way my wife burns thru data.
Anyway, I'm back to the drawing board and hoping someone has a decent suggestion for a jobsite camera.
TIA
