Everything is a stream. Every consumer is a subscriber.
That is not a slogan, it is the architecture — and it is why the same product is an appliance for a house, a platform for an installer and a target for a camera vendor.
The hub ingests every camera once and publishes it. Facts, commands and outcomes all travel the same documented line protocol, which is why adding a consumer never means touching the ingest path.
Recorder
Motion-gated event clips: preroll, episode, postroll, contiguous.
Detector
Object detection on your own hardware, with a novelty tracker — so presence is not an event.
Camera control
One vendor-neutral vocabulary, with vendor shapes isolated in a driver.
Watchdog
A camera going dark is a first-class event with alarm rules, not a gap you find next week.
Subscribers, not integrations
The browser wall, the Android app, the exporter and the console are the same kind of thing: a process that subscribed. The phone app does not speak RTSP to your cameras — it speaks the bus.
What is kept, and for how long
A daily lifecycle pass purges, compacts and archives across two storage tiers. You keep event clips and the event record rather than an undifferentiated month of video.
Export you can hand over
Frame-exact clip export with time and camera burn-in, queued as a job on the bus. The artifact is a file, and it is yours to give to an insurer or the police.
