Problem
Traditional video security systems rely on fixed detection models that can only recognize a limited set of objects or actions, requiring costly hardware upgrades and extensive data labeling to add new capabilities. This rigidity leads to missed incidents and burdens operators with complex configuration and constant monitoring.
Solution
Cyrus offers an AI-driven security platform that transforms any existing IP camera into a customizable, real‑time monitoring guard. Users specify detection criteria through natural language commands, enabling instant alerts for any described scenario without additional training or hardware changes. The system runs on edge devices, delivering low‑latency (1–2 seconds) processing and continuous automated surveillance for both residential and commercial environments. By eliminating the need for human operators and specialized expertise, Cyrus provides scalable, adaptable security that can detect any object or behavior described in plain language.
Target Audience
Primary customers are property owners and managers of residential homes, private estates, and commercial facilities who need flexible, low‑maintenance video surveillance, as well as security service providers overseeing events, festivals, and large venues.
