The video surveillance market is split between expensive enterprise stacks, cheap proprietary hardware, and cloud-only newcomers that demand their own cameras. NetrIQ sits across the gap — an open, AI-native software layer that runs on what you already own.
A short list of the pain we remove, side by side with what most VMS deployments still look like.
Most premises run a multi-vintage mix — Hikvision DVRs that pre-date the manager, Dahua cameras that arrived with the new wing, a couple of 4G SIM cams covering the back gate, a Wi-Fi cam in the manager’s cabin. NetrIQ absorbs all of it. RTSP, ONVIF, HTTP snapshot fallback. Public IP or no public IP. The platform doesn’t care.
Real-time detection runs at the edge so alerts fire in the second they should. Recording stays local for bandwidth and retention. The cloud handles remote viewing, multi-site, and the cross-camera intelligence that benefits from a global view. Pick what lives where; the platform doesn’t force you.
NetrIQ is software. We don’t sell you a camera. That means you keep your hardware leverage, you keep choice, and you keep portability. For regulated markets, pair NetrIQ with NDAA-compliant cameras. For everyone else, run it on the Hikvision, Dahua, CP Plus, and Sparsh hardware your sites already standardised on.
Real deployments run mixed networks, mixed vintages, intermittent uplinks, and plate formats that defeat off-the-shelf OCR. NetrIQ’s plate engine handles HSRP and regional formats with multi-frame consensus. The product is tested against the conditions that actually trip surveillance — low light, vendor-mix, network drops — not the showroom.
Cameras differ in how you use them. A car park gate camera doesn’t need the same tier as the live wall in the control room. NetrIQ prices by camera tier, not by camera count alone.
Continuous recording plus baseline AI detection. Alerts on configured rules. Right tier for most cameras on a site.
License-plate recognition added on top of record + detect. Auto-populated gate log and vehicle registry.
Counting, occupancy, heatmaps, and Persons-of-Interest tracking. For control-room and high-value coverage.
Cameras intended for the operations video wall. Full live-view, no analytics requirement.
Lower-cost tier for cameras you mostly archive but occasionally scan. Forensic detection runs only when you ask.
Multi-site, multi-tenant, regulated environments. We’ll size and price it on the actual deployment.
