camera.ui is a self-hosted, local-first video surveillance (NVR) platform for security cameras with live viewing, 24/7 recording, and on-device AI detection. It offers a web UI, smart-home integration (HomeKit), push notifications, and an extensible plugin ecosystem, with some premium features behind a subscription.
Use cases
- self-hosted NVR for my IP cameras
- record security cameras 24/7 without cloud
- AI object and face detection on camera footage
- integrate cameras with HomeKit and smart home
- get push notifications when motion is detected
- view live camera streams in a web UI
- keep surveillance footage local on my own hardware
When to choose
- you want a local-first, privacy-focused NVR without mandatory cloud
- you need AI-based detection (objects, faces) on your own hardware
- you use HomeKit or other smart-home integrations
- you want Docker, desktop, or bare-metal deployment options
When to avoid
- you need a fully free solution with all features — some features require a paid subscription
- you need enterprise-scale multi-site video management
- you rely on cloud storage as the primary recording backend
