AI-powered search

Ask for the moment. Skip the footage.

Verkada’s AI finds people and vehicles by description. Instead of scrubbing through a night of recordings, you describe what you’re looking for and go straight to it, on any camera, from your phone.

Capabilities

One platform for every camera, door and gate.

  • People and vehicle detection

    Alerts for the events that matter, not every swaying branch.

  • License plate recognition

    Know which cars come and go, and be told when one you don’t recognize arrives.

  • Search in seconds

    Find any moment by person, vehicle, color or time, across every camera at once.

  • Remote live view

    Every camera, live or recorded, from your phone or a browser, wherever you are.

  • Secure sharing

    Send a time-limited live link to your security team or the police in a tap.

  • No recorders

    Footage is stored on the camera and managed in the cloud: no recorder to fail, fill up or steal.

  • Video intercoms

    Answer the gate from anywhere and let the right people in.

  • Access control

    Doors and gates opened by credential, phone or schedule, every entry recorded.

  • Environmental sensors

    Temperature, humidity and air quality in wine cellars, equipment rooms and more.

Coverage

Designed around the property, not the catalog.

We plan coverage from the gate to the last corner of the grounds, find the blind spots on paper and close them before the first camera goes up. Every camera is chosen and placed to suit the architecture.

The network beneath

Cameras are only as good as the network under them.

This is where we’re different. Most camera installers stop at the camera. We build the network it depends on.

  1. Isolation

    A network of their own

    Cameras, intercoms and door controllers live on a separate network, walled off from family, guest and staff devices.

  2. Power

    Power that doesn’t blink

    Cameras run on PoE from battery-backed switches, so they keep recording through a power cut.

  3. Capacity

    Bandwidth, planned

    Enough capacity for every camera, without slowing down anything else in the house.

  4. Monitoring

    Watched like everything else

    If a camera drops offline, our monitoring notices, and we’re already looking into it.

Privacy

Your footage stays yours.

  • Encrypted in storage and in transit.
  • Access by invitation. You decide who sees which cameras, with single sign-on and two-factor authentication.
  • Every view logged. An audit trail of who watched what, and when.
  • Discreet hardware, placed with your architect and designer in mind.

Questions

What clients ask first.

Do we need a recorder or a server?

No. Verkada cameras store footage on the camera itself and are managed in the cloud, so there’s no server to maintain and nothing for an intruder to carry away.

Can we watch from our phones?

Yes. Any camera, live or recorded, from the Verkada app or a browser, wherever you are in the world.

What if the internet goes down?

The cameras keep recording to their onboard storage. When the connection returns, everything is available again, and with dual internet it rarely goes down at all.

Can you add cameras to a property we already have?

Yes. We survey what’s there, plan coverage, power and cabling, and install with as little disruption as possible.
