A clean, private macOS experience for local motion monitoring.

Local by design

Camera analysis happens on your Mac. Room Monitor requires no account and does not upload recordings to a developer-operated cloud service.

Motion-triggered capture

Monitor the full camera view or a selected region and save still images, H.264 video clips, or both when motion is detected.

Your files, your folder

Events are delivered to your chosen folder, with configurable retention and disk-space safeguards for unattended monitoring.
