Every local feature ships in the free tier — unlimited cameras, AI detection, recording. Pro adds cloud remote access and push notifications.
Ultrawide-Ready Live View
Adaptive grid fills 16:9, 21:9, and 32:9 screens. 1–64 cameras in a single view. No blank tiles, no wasted space.
FREE
AI Person & Vehicle Detection
Runs on your GPU via YOLO — not a cloud API. Detect persons, vehicles, and animals with configurable confidence thresholds.
FREE
Local Recording — Always Yours
Continuous, motion-triggered, or AI-event recording direct to your drives. H.264/H.265 passthrough — no re-encoding overhead.
FREE
Smart Motion Zones
Draw inclusion/exclusion zones per camera. Combine with AI classification to eliminate false alerts from trees, shadows, and animals.
FREE
Push Notifications
iOS and Android alerts with event thumbnails. Filter by camera, event type, or time-of-day schedule. Works locally or through the cloud relay.
PRO
Cloud Remote Access
View live feeds and recordings from anywhere via our cloud relay. No port forwarding, no VPN — just open the app. Your video stays on your server.

BUSINESS
Live View
Built for the way you actually monitor.

Most NVR software forces you into fixed 4x4 or 8x8 grids. LookoutNVR calculates the optimal layout for your screen and your camera count — automatically. Got a 34-inch ultrawide? It fills it.

  • Auto-layout: 1 to 64 cameras, any screen ratio
  • Per-camera status: online, offline, connecting, FPS
  • AI detection boxes overlaid in real-time
  • Click any cell to fullscreen or pop-out
LIVE VIEW — 34 CAMERAS

AI Detection
Your GPU. Your detections. Zero latency.

LookoutNVR runs YOLO inference locally — on your hardware. Person, vehicle, and animal detection happens in milliseconds without a single packet leaving your network.

  • Person, vehicle, animal classification
  • Configurable confidence thresholds per camera
  • Works on NVIDIA, AMD, and Intel Arc GPUs
  • CPU fallback for no-GPU setups
