  • It’s A Prank!

Yes, pranks. 

Ever thought of doing so with your security camera?

You can plan some amazing pranks and record unadulterated emotions and reactions of the person who has been pranked.



  • Live Stream

If watching reality TV and witnessing social experiment videos on YouTube is your favorite pastime, then this point is for you.

Live stream a social experiment to make some interesting and valuable content for yourself through pre-installed security cameras.


  • Scare Away The Pests

Tired of raccoons, squirrels, and other rodents eating away your organic garden?

Not anymore. Use our smart motion detection cameras to ensure that every movement in front of your camera is accounted for. Scare away the rodents using our cameras. Happy gardening to you!


  • Who Let The Dogs Out?

Where did the dog go? Where is the cat hiding?

These simple questions have an even simpler answer- watch the security camera footage!

Find your pets easily just by watching the security footage, if they are hiding inside the home. Did they run out of the house? Watch the security footage and find out the direction they ran in.


  • Prevent Vandalism and Trespassing

Are the kids around the neighborhood messing up the neatly done grass on your front yard? That ends today!

Get a security camera installed and watch out for the naughty kids playing around in your front yard. Thanks to your security camera, you now know the kids whose parents you need to contact.


  • Improve Your Life

Security cameras can actually be a tool for self equipment? How, do you ask?

Do you need to maintain a straight posture while sitting at work in front of the computer? Check the security footage to do so. Similarly, you tend to improve your sleeping style? Analyze the footage. We hope you understand the point now.

Watching yourself do something bad or uncalled for, actually helps you acknowledge that habit even better and hence allows you to improve it.


  • Record Those Precious Moments 

The baby started walking! The cattle just gave birth. You just did the perfect backflip, unintentionally.

Now, you wouldn’t want all of that to go unrecorded, would you? Capture all of these and more such precious and unforgettable moments on a security camera to help you relive those moments again.


  • Surprise, Surprise!

Have something amazing planned? A proposal? An intimate dinner surprise for your loved one? A new gift for your kids?

Now, you would want to capture unadulterated and pure emotions when they see your surprise, don’t you? Let’s face it, cameras do tend to bring into people a little sense of inhibition.

That sense of inhibition does tend to bring out a little made up reactions from them rather than pure and untouched emotions of what they actually tend to feel.
