How It Works

Verkada to AI in three steps

The Problem

Verkada cameras already detect people and generate occupancy heatmaps, but the analytics stay in Verkada's dashboard. Your AI agents need programmatic access to person detection events and occupancy counts.

The Solution

Person detection and occupancy counting via API
Occupancy heatmaps with historical comparisons
Camera health monitoring and uptime tracking
Multi-site aggregation across camera fleet
Privacy-compliant — metadata only, no video streaming
