Plan a home or small business camera system before you buy

Search your address, drop a few cameras on the satellite image, and see exactly which corners of your driveway, yard or storefront are covered. No CAD, no installer required.

See coverage before you drill

Move cameras around the satellite map and watch the FOV cones overlap. Find blind spots in five minutes instead of after the install is done.

Pick the right model

Compare bullet, dome, PTZ and fisheye cameras side-by-side. The DORI distances tell you whether you'll Detect, Observe, Recognize or Identify a person at the gate.

Estimate hard drive space

The storage calculator answers the #1 DIY question: "how big a hard drive do I need?" Enter resolution, FPS and how many days you want to keep footage.

Keep the plan as a record

Save your design and share a link with a friend or installer for a second opinion. Versions are kept so you can revisit the original plan years later.
