AI Video Search: Find Security Camera Clips Fast

Q: How can AI Video Event Search boost my video monitoring system?

AI Video Event Search lets you search saved clips by describing what you're looking for, rather than reviewing footage manually. Check on vendor activity, investigate incidents, or audit access points quickly and accurately across your camera system.

AI Video Event Search uses natural-language queries to search across your saved video clip thumbnails and surface the most relevant clips. It analyzes saved clip thumbnails, not the entire recorded footage in the clip.

Q: Can I exclude cameras from AI Video Event Search?

Yes. You can add and remove cameras from AI Video Event Search at any time from the settings.

Q: Who can access AI Video Event Search on my account?
