CLUSTER HOSTED-MOTION-SELF · 24 ENTRIES · EARLIEST ENTRY 2026-08-17

Self-hosted NVR platforms

This cluster comprises self-hosted network video recorder and camera management software, supporting live viewing, recording, motion detection, clip export, AI-based recognition, mosaic compositing, PTZ control, and two-way audio. The dated history is too thin to read a shape from — only 4 dated entries exist before the index start, so the cluster predates the index or its members are undated. Among traction leaders, serval leads with 11 stars, followed by RTMS with 1 star and Watchgrid with 0 stars.

Each bar is the month a member carries, which is a creation date where the source published one and a crawl date otherwise. Nothing in the index was found before 11 August 2026, and coverage broadened sharply on 14–15 August, so a bar from then on reports how much we found that month, not how much was built; an earlier bar reports how far back a member's own source dated it — not how long we have been watching.
