About ArgusVision
Why ArgusVision, why now.
Most CCTV is recorded and never watched. ArgusVision watches existing cameras for the rules a site cares about, and turns the moments that matter into events people can act on and search.
- What
- An AI layer for existing CCTV: rules, events and alerts, with clips
- Who buys
- Facility and security managers, retail operations, facility-management companies
- How
- A small edge box on site and a cloud event platform; outbound-only on port 443
- Pilot
- Free, 2–4 weeks, on 2–5 of your cameras with a loaned box
- Where
- India first; designed with UK and EU privacy expectations in mind
Why now
The cameras are there. The attention isn't.
Cameras are already everywhere
Sites have paid for CCTV and the network. The sensors are installed; the attention is missing.
Nobody can watch them all
Control rooms are thinly staffed, especially at night. Footage is opened after an incident, as evidence.
On-site AI is now practical
Capable vision models now run on a small box next to the cameras.
How it's built
Edge first. Events, not footage.
On site
Edge agent
Reads your camera streams, keeps a short rolling buffer, cuts event clips and syncs securely, outbound only.
On site
Perception
Detection and tracking next to the cameras.
Cloud
Event platform
Stores events, not continuous video. Powers alerts, the dashboard and search.
How it compares
Rules, not raw motion.
A general comparison of approaches, not of any named product.
| Question | Manual monitoring | NVR motion alerts | ArgusVision |
|---|---|---|---|
| Who is watching | A person, when available | Nobody; movement just triggers | Rules per camera, zone and time |
| What reaches you | Hours of footage | Frequent alerts, little context | One event: clip, rule, who was told |
| Knows an exit from a corridor | If someone is looking | No; any movement counts | Yes; zones are set per camera |
| After an incident | Scrub recordings | Scrub recordings | Search events by camera, zone and time |
What would help us most
Pilot sites
Offices, malls, campuses and retail sites willing to pilot on their own cameras.
Facility-management introductions
Companies that operate many client sites, in India and the UK and EU.
Technical mentorship
Scaling edge fleets, event data and search.
