Scrypted is a high-performance, self-hosted video integration and automation platform that ingests streams from most IP cameras and relays them with low latency to HomeKit, Google Home, Alexa, and Home Assistant. Its plugin-based Scrypted NVR add-on provides 24/7 recording, smart detections, notifications, and companion mobile and desktop apps.
Use cases
- stream security cameras to HomeKit with Secure Video
- build a self-hosted NVR with 24/7 recording and smart detections
- integrate RTSP cameras into Google Home and Alexa
- get person/vehicle detection notifications from cameras
- bridge cameras into Home Assistant with low latency
- run a camera hub on Docker or Proxmox
When to choose
- you want low-latency camera streaming to HomeKit, Google Home, or Alexa
- you need a self-hosted NVR with AI smart detections
- you want a plugin ecosystem to extend camera integrations
- you need hardware-accelerated decoding on a dedicated server
When to avoid
- you only need simple cloud camera viewing without local infrastructure
- you cannot provide host networking (e.g., Docker Desktop on Mac/Windows)
- you want a lightweight setup on Home Assistant OS with limited storage
- you need a fully turnkey commercial NVR with vendor support
