How it works

It looks before it shouts.

Three things happen in about a second, on a box in your own cupboard.

Your cameras see movement

Any ONVIF or RTSP camera you already own. Nothing to rip out, nothing to replace.

The hub decides if it matters

AI on the hub tells people and vehicles apart from wind, rain, pets and shadows. The rest is quietly logged.

You get the alarm, with the photo

On your phone in seconds, a siren on site if you want one, and the same photo for your security company.

Why it matters

A beam can't tell the difference. CleverCam can.

An alarm that goes off for everything gets ignored, by you and by the control room. CleverCam only raises the alarm for a person or a vehicle, and shows you which.

FAQ

Questions, answered.

The ones we hear most. The rest are on the full list.

How is this different from a beam alarm?

Beams trip on animals, weather and power glitches, and during load-shedding they often fire across a whole site at once. CleverCam uses AI to tell people and vehicles apart from noise, so you only get alarms that are real.

Does it work with my existing cameras?

Yes. The hub discovers any ONVIF or RTSP camera by itself, so you keep the cameras and DVR you already own.

Can it tell people from animals?

Yes. The AI on the hub tells people and vehicles apart from pets, shadows and weather, and grades each event by confidence. High-confidence threats fire the siren; the rest are logged quietly.

Does it work with my alarm panel?

Yes. CleverCam works with IDS HYYP, Olarm, Onyyx and Ajax panels. Arm, disarm and bypass zones from the app, and control Nemtek and JVA electric fences. Panel signals reach your security company alongside the camera events.

How many users can I add?

Up to 192 users per site, each with a role: viewer, arm and disarm, or administrator. Every action is logged.

Does it need internet?

The AI runs on the hub, but alerts and live view need a stable connection. The hub has built-in network diagnostics to help your installer get every camera online.
