The camera follows
Point a pan-tilt camera at the room and forget it. Peter finds your dog and pans to keep them in frame — if they wander off, it predicts where they went and looks. No repositioning, no blind spots.
Early access is open
Peter is a camera that turns to follow your dog around the room — and then does the part no other camera does. Every evening it hands you a day-in-the-life. Every Sunday, a film of their week, cut to music.
How it works
Point a pan-tilt camera at the room and forget it. Peter finds your dog and pans to keep them in frame — if they wander off, it predicts where they went and looks. No repositioning, no blind spots.
Detection spots the dog; a vision model reads what they're actually doing — sleeping, pacing, getting on the couch, barking at the door. Not just "motion detected" at 3pm. And it remembers, so it knows what an ordinary day looks like for your dog.
A push notification the moment something matters, with the clip attached. Then the evening's day-in-the-life, and on Sunday the film of their week — assembled while you sleep.
What Peter makes
Eight hours of footage is not something anyone watches. So Peter watches it instead, and gives you back the only two things worth keeping.
Peter names what your dog did all day — sleeping, pacing, getting on the couch — picks the single clearest moment of each, and stitches them together. A few seconds of everything that happened, including the naps. It's waiting for you when you get home.
Not seven days stuck end to end. Peter goes back over the week, keeps the moments that actually stood out, and cuts them to music — the edits landing on the beat, the busiest footage on the loudest bars.
The same nap seven days running is one moment, not seven. What you get is about a minute long, and it's the thing you'll send to someone.
Behavior over time
You see your dog at the end of the day, pleased to see you. You don't see the forty minutes at the door after it closed, or that it's been getting longer since February. Peter does — it's the same dog, the same room, every day, which is the only way anyone would notice.
Not a breed average — your dog. How long they sleep, where they settle, how the first hour alone usually goes. It takes weeks of days to know that, which is exactly what a camera that watches every day has.
Pacing that wasn't there last month. A dog who used to settle by ten past nine and now doesn't. Barking that starts at the same time every afternoon. You get the pattern and the clips underneath it — so you can see what Peter saw, not just take a chart's word for it.
Ask Peter what to try and you get something you can actually run: a positive-reinforcement plan for the leaving routine, enrichment before you go, steps sized to the week you've got. Then the same tracking shows you whether it's helping.
A plain summary of what changed and when, with dates and clips attached. Half a consultation usually goes on "has anything been different at home?" — this answers it properly, and behavior changes can be the first sign of a physical problem.
The kind of thing it picks up
Peter is not a veterinarian and doesn't diagnose anything. It reports what it saw and how that differs from your dog's usual. Signs like these can have a medical cause as easily as a behavioral one, and only your vet can tell you which — anything to do with medication, supplements or diet is a conversation for them, with Peter's summary in your hand. Training guidance is general advice, not a promise about your dog.
Alerts and the daily film are what early testers use today. The long-term picture is what we're building next, on the same footage — early access members get it first.
The camera
Peter isn't an app looking for a camera to borrow. It's a camera we're making, because the thing we wanted didn't exist: one that turns to follow a dog, sets itself up in a minute, and does its thinking on board.
A motorised head that pans and tilts to keep your dog in frame — and goes looking when they wander off. Most cameras just stare at one wall.
The detection runs on the camera itself rather than shipping your whole day to a server. Less bandwidth, faster reactions, less of your living room leaving the house.
Plug it in, pair it from your phone. Nothing to forward, nothing to configure, no router settings — the camera reaches out to us on its own.
1080p, wide enough to cover a room, and tuned for the thing you actually want: a dog moving fast in ordinary indoor light.
In development with our manufacturer now. Specs firm up as samples land — early access members get the first units, and the honest updates in between.
What's inside
Tell Peter what counts — the couch, the bin, the room they're not allowed in. You get the alert and the clip, not a wall of false alarms.
A day-in-the-life every evening and an edited film every Sunday. You watch your dog's week instead of scrubbing through it.
Open the app and see the room right now. Move the camera yourself if you want a better look.
Invite whoever shares the dog. Same cameras, same alerts, same recaps — everyone sees it.
Vet records, medication reminders and food notes live next to the footage, because they're about the same dog.
A built-in assistant that knows your dog and your day, and can actually do things — set a reminder, save a recipe, pull up a record.
Questions
It's in development with our manufacturer now. Early access members get the first units and hear about shipping before anyone else — that's the main reason the list exists.
No — and be careful with anything that says it can. Peter can tell you your dog paced for forty minutes after you left on Tuesday, that it's been happening more since your hours changed, and show you the clips. Naming that is your vet's job, not a camera's: the same behavior can come from pain, from age, from a new noise next door. What Peter gives you is the evidence, weeks of it, so that conversation starts from something better than "he's been a bit off".
It'll help you work on it. Ask Peter and you get a plan you can actually run — the leaving routine, enrichment before you go, a positive-reinforcement sequence over a few weeks — and then the tracking tells you whether it's working. What it won't do is recommend medication or prescribe a supplement. That's a vet's call, and Peter's job is to make sure they've got the full picture when they make it.
Some. Peter works with cameras that expose an RTSP stream — we've tested most with Amcrest — and Smart Life cameras connect through their cloud. Ring, Nest, Arlo and Wyze deliberately don't expose a stream, so they can't work. But following your dog, setting itself up and thinking on board are things a generic camera won't do, which is why we're building our own.
Not with Peter's camera — it reaches out to us by itself, so there's nothing to forward and nothing exposed to the internet from your home. If you bring your own RTSP camera instead, it needs to be reachable, which can mean router work. That's the difference the hardware makes.
Clips are stored encrypted in the cloud and are visible only to your household. Nothing is public, and nothing is shared with anyone else.
The Android app and the web dashboard are what early testers use today. iOS is in progress — join the list and we'll tell you the day it's ready.
The camera is a one-time purchase, and the daily and weekly films come with a plan. We haven't set either price yet — early access members hear first and get founding-member terms.
Constantly, but affectionately. Peter tells you what happened — the couch verdict is yours.
We're onboarding households in small batches so we can get it right. Leave your email and we'll come to you.
