OmniVision AI

Video intelligence for the cameras you already own

Ask your cameras anything.

OmniVision watches every camera and every archive, writes down what happens, and lets your team search it, chat with it and get alerted about it in plain English. It runs on a box in your building, so your footage never has to leave it.

How it works

From hours of footage to answers in seconds

No new cameras and no cloud upload. OmniVision sits beside what you already have and turns it into something you can talk to.

Connect

Point OmniVision at your cameras, recorders and archives. Live RTSP and ONVIF streams, recorded files, dashcam footage and cloud buckets all go into one index.

Understand

On the edge box, it detects people and vehicles, and a vision-language model writes a plain-English description of each scene: who, what, carrying what, and where.

Ask

Search the way you would ask a colleague, chat with your footage and get answers with clips attached, and write alerts as sentences instead of configuring zones and schedules.

The platform

One engine. Seven ways to use it.

Plain-English search

Find it the way you'd describe it

"Anyone wearing pink in the office?" "A white van at the loading bay last Tuesday." Time of day is a real filter, not a guess.

New · Ask OmniVision

Chat with your footage

Ask follow-up questions and get written answers. Every claim cites the moment it came from, so you can watch it.

Alerts you describe

Write the rule as a sentence

Every rule shows how it was understood before it ever fires.

Vehicle counting

Count what crosses the line

Draw a line, get every vehicle counted once, with its type and direction.

Evidence

Proof that stands up

Signed exports with hash manifests, and an append-only audit trail behind every search, report and export.

Dashcam telemetry

Where, when and how fast

Routes on a street map stored on the box, plus speed and driving events (braking, cornering, speeding), all from the camera's own GPS. No extra hardware on the vehicle.

Live monitoring

A watchtower, not a wall of screens

Live view, incidents that open themselves, a morning digest of the last 24 hours, and push alerts to phones and browsers.

Private by design

Your footage stays in your building

Detection, captions, search and the AI that answers questions all run on the OmniVision box at your site. Nothing is uploaded unless you choose a cloud-assisted option, and even then only still images leave, never video.

  • Local language and vision models: no third-party AI service sees your cameras
  • Remote access through an encrypted tunnel, with no ports opened on your router
  • Roles for admins, supervisors, guards and auditors, with every action logged

Questions

Good to know

Do we need new cameras?

Usually not. OmniVision works with most IP cameras and recorders that provide an RTSP stream or support ONVIF, plus Ring cameras, dashcam footage and recorded archives.

Does our footage leave the site?

Not with the standard setup: detection, captions, search and Ask OmniVision all run on the box at your site. A cloud-assisted option exists for sites without GPU hardware; it sends still images of detected scenes, never video, and only if you choose it.

How accurate is it?

It depends on camera placement, light and resolution. OmniVision looks at sampled moments rather than every second, and every answer links to the clips behind it so a person can check. During setup we test it on your own cameras before you rely on it.

What hardware do we need?

One EdgeBox per site, or a compatible mini PC. Captions and chat run best with an NVIDIA GPU of 12 GB or more; everything except the AI writing works without one. The EdgeBox page has the details.

How do we get started?

Create an account and answer a short questionnaire about your cameras and network. You can save it and come back, and invite your IT contact to answer the technical parts. We use it to recommend the right setup and prepare a quote.
