Privacy
Nothing about your home leaves your home.
Most smart-home AI sends your cameras to someone's cloud. PorchIQ was built the other way around.
Stays in your house
On your box, and only there
- Camera footage and snapshots
- What the AI says about each event
- Vehicles, plates and visitors
- Your automations and routines
- Who's home and when
- Device history and logs
Reaches us
The minimum to run a subscription
- Your account email and name
- Billing, handled by Stripe
- A daily license check (plan, install ID, app version)
- Crash reports, only if you turn them on, with personal details removed
How it works
Private by how it's built, not by a promise.
The AI runs at home
The models that describe your cameras, search footage and write automations run on your own computer. There is no cloud AI in the loop.
Off until you say so
Audio recording is off. Plate reading and camera narration ask at setup, and you choose how long history is kept: 7, 14 or 30 days.
Yours to take or delete
Export everything, or delete it, from Settings. Cancel and your data stays on your box until you remove it.
