What makes StreamShuttle better than the others?

Setting up a basic home video surveillance system shouldn't be a frustrating experience, but it usually is. Some systems lack advanced features like person detection or notifications. Worse, many require routing footage through cloud services just to view it locally, raising serious privacy concerns. The idea that footage could leave the premises without any real oversight is hard to accept, and digging into the privacy and security track record of consumer cameras makes it even harder.

The privacy argument boils down to trust. Do you trust the people handling your data? Our research into various off-the-shelf cameras made that trust very hard to justify. Don't just take our word for it. These headlines come up with a little cursory searching.

After trying many solutions, both commercial and open source, it was clear that nothing simple and comprehensive existed. What was available was functional but missing essential features: push notifications, two-way audio, even a straightforward way to review footage. Over time, maintaining these systems became more cumbersome, not less. When friends and family started asking for help choosing and setting up their own systems, there wasn't a single good recommendation to give.

That's what led to StreamShuttle. The goal was a user-friendly, private, and secure solution that doesn't require a background in networking to set up and maintain.

StreamShuttle works for homes and businesses alike. Real-time object detection, multi-location support, end-to-end encryption, and cloud storage you control are built in, with no clumsy plug-ins required. We're building StreamShuttle to be the simplest and most capable NVR available.
