AI scout for cameras
Tell your cameras what to watch for.
Describe what matters in your own words, and Houdhoud turns it into real-time alerts on your RTSP feeds. Register a camera, write a scenario, and get notified the moment it happens, in the dashboard or via signed webhook into your existing stack.

How it works
From RTSP stream to actionable alert, in three steps.
No labeling, no on-prem boxes, no rip-and-replace. Connect a camera, describe what matters, get alerted.
Register your cameras
Point Houdhoud at the cameras you already run, from a single camera to a full video system. No new hardware, no re-cabling, no on-prem boxes.
Author scenarios in your own words
Houdhoud catches what basic motion and person alerts never could, however specific or unusual the situation: "a child alone by the pool", "someone climbing the perimeter wall", "an animal loose in the road". No manual annotation needed.
Get alerts where your team works
Alerts reach your team where they already are: the dashboard, a message to their phone, or a signed webhook into Slack, PagerDuty, your SIEM, or any HTTP endpoint.
Where it fits
Three places this is already paying for itself in pilots.
In each of them the usual setup struggles the same way: too many cameras, too few eyes, and tools that only flag the basics while the moment that matters slips past.
Houdhoud catches what slips past.
Intrusion and access
Know when someone is where they should not be, or doing what they should not, well past what a tripwire or a "person detected" box can tell you.
- a covered face at the door
- someone trying your car door
- someone climbing over the gate
- someone vandalizing public property
Safety and threats
Catch the moment something turns dangerous, a weapon, a fight, a fire, someone collapsing, while there is still time to respond.
- someone carrying a weapon
- a fight breaking out
- smoke filling a corridor
- someone collapsing on the floor
Vehicles and traffic
Turn a busy lot, gate, or road into something you can actually watch, a crash, a stopped vehicle, a crowd in the road, not every car that moves.
- a car hitting a pedestrian
- an overturned car
- a vehicle stopped on the hard shoulder
- a crowd gathering in the street
See it in motion
What a scenario firing looks like.
Intrusion and access
Someone climbs over the gate after dark. Alert fires on the scenario you wrote: "person climbing the gate".
Safety and threats
A weapon appears at the entrance. Alert fires on the scenario you wrote: "someone carrying a weapon".
Vehicles and traffic
A car lies overturned at the roadside. Alert fires on the scenario you wrote: "an overturned car".
What you can count on
Three commitments that shape every decision.
Your own words, not manual labeling
Scenarios are sentences, not annotation projects. You write and edit them straight from the dashboard, no specialists required.
Alerts you can trust
Houdhoud verifies each alert before it reaches you, so false positives drop dramatically. One event raises one alert, never a burst of repeats.
Fits your existing stack
RTSP in, dashboard and signed webhooks out. No proprietary cameras, no rip-and-replace, no agent on the NVR.
